Mr. M. E. llushwii has- harvested
his 40-acre- field of oats;;but has not
threshed them. Guesses run all the;
way from 40 to 75 bushels per acre-.
It was the finest large field of oats
we ever saw. They were breast
high to a man all over the 40 acres.
Lots of people went ouf to the farm
to see the oats and tho binder at
work. It would really interest you
to see the machine spit in its hands,
cut a swath four feet wide, tie a cord
around each bundle, clip the cord
and lay the bundle on the ground as
fast as the mules can walk. The
maohine aotually does these things t
with the exception of spitting u its j
hands.
