33 84 | John Deere, "All-American" Numerology

Please recall that 'United States of America' equates to 84 in Gematria, much like the year of George Orwell's classic novel, 1984.  The Gematria of John Deer is much the same.

• John = 10+15+8+14 = 47
• Deere = 4+5+5+18+5 = 37
• John Deere = 47+37 = 84
• United = 3+5+9+2+5+4 = 28
• States = 1+2+1+2+5+1 = 12
• of = 6+6 = 12
• America = 1+4+5+9+9+3+1 = 32
• United States of America = 28+12+12+32 = 84

The current CEO of John Deere is Sam Allen.

• Sam = 19+1+13 = 33
• Allen = 1+12+12+5+14 = 44
• Sam Allen = 33+44 = 77

Again, these are very "American" numbers.  Washington D.C. is located on the 77th Meridian West, also known as the "American Meridian".  Better yet, the Pentagon is 77-feet tall and was ironically hit by Flight 77 on September 11.

Back to John Deere, this "All-American" company.  Let us quickly examine this excerpt from their early formation, courtesy of the John Deere Wikipedia.

In 1842, Deere entered a business partnership with Leonard Andrus and purchased land for the construction of a new two-story factory along the Rock River in Illinois. This factory, named the "L. Andrus Plough Manufacturer", produced about 100 plows in 1842 and approximately 400 plows during the next year. Despite the success, Deere's partnership with Andrus ended in 1848, when Deere relocated to Moline, Illinois in order to have access to the railroad and the Mississippi River. In Moline, Deere formed a partnership with Robert Tate and John Gould and quickly built a new 1,440 square feet (134 m²) factory in 1848. Production at the plant rose quickly and, by 1849, the Deere, Tate & Gould Company was producing over 200 plows a month, and a two story addition to the plant was built to allow for further production. 

John Deere bought out Tate and Gould's interests in the company in 1853, the same year that he was joined in the business by his son Charles Deere. The business continued to expand until 1857, when the company's production totals reached almost 1,120 implements per month. Then, in 1858 a nationwide financial recession took a toll on the company. In order to prevent bankruptcy, the company was reorganized and Deere sold his interests in the business to his son in law, Christopher Webber, and his son, Charles Deere, who would take on most of his father's managerial roles. The company was reorganized one final time in 1868, when it was incorporated as Deere & Company. The company's original stockholders were Charles Deere, Stephen Velie, George Vinton, and John Deere, who would serve as president of the company until 1886. Despite this, it was Charles who effectively ran the company. In 1869, Charles began to introduce marketing centers and independent retail dealers to advance the company's sales nationwide. 

John Deere died in 1886, and the presidency of Deere & Company passed to Charles Deere. By now the company was manufacturing a variety of farm equipment products in addition to plows, including wagons, corn planters and cultivators. The company even expanded into the bicycle business briefly during the 1890s, but the core focus of the company remained on agricultural implements.

First there was the early partnership with Leonard Andrus.

• Leonard = 3+5+6+5+1+9+4 = 33 

Then there was son 'Charles'.

• Charles = 3+8+1+18+12+5+19 = 66

Did you catch that part about the original stockholders?

• Stephen = 1+2+5+7+8+5+5 = 33
• George = 7+5+6+9+7+5 = 39
• John = 10+15+8+14 = 47

John Deere was born with a life number of "22", the "master number".  His date of birth was February 7, 1804.

• 2/7/1804 = 2+7+1+8+0+4 = 22
• Master = 4+1+1+2+5+9 = 22
