Thras1ling Wheat from the Field

Where it can be done, this is unquestion-
ably the best and most economical plan. If
portable steam engines were as common as
they will be in few years there would be
no difficulty in thrashing as drawn from the
field. Two extra men is all that is needed.
But we now require two extra teams also,
and these are not always to be had. One
: man can pitch as fast as any ten horse ma.
chine can thrash. Our plan has been to
have three wagons and Two teams, with one
man to each wagon, who loads and unloads.
We built small stack by the side of the
machine, holding perhaps load, On which
the man stands who cuts the bands. While
changing wagons, sheaves are taken from
the stack so as not to stop the machine
nj .et the farmer give up all idea of doing any
-regalar work himself and attend =" The
rhahs,"a- - ,saaoaS- and furnishing
sheaves, and there wiissSno trouble. Put
steady man in the field to pitch, ard a
load will always be ready to take the place
orthe empty wagon. There are men enough
around the machine to run the empty wagon
out of the way, and the other is in its place
and the man throwing off sheaves in less
than two minutes. There is a little excite.
ment about 1t, when everything goes right,
that stimulates activity. With favorable
weather and on large tarmwe would never
lnfash wheat IN any other way. Where
there is sufficient barn room, thrash out Of
doors and put the straw in the barn. 1t is
then safe, and can be fed out more conven-
iently and with less waste than from the
stack. --1me,ican Agricmturist.
