The newspapers of Kansas and Ne
braska are full of praise of the successful
working Of the Bovee harvesting machin-
cry during the recent harvest They say
that it solves the twine problem. There
are two machines Some of our readers
have probably seen them illustrated and
described in the agricultural journals.
The cutting machine hasa horizontal
carrier which dumps the grain into
swath (or, more properly speaking, a
windrow) on the side. A lever reverscs
the motion Of the carrier and thus two
swaths are dumped into one windrow
: The second machine is a hay-rake with an
elevator 1t is trailed behind the wagon,
picking up all the gram and dropping it
in the rack. Where ground has been
rolled the machines are SAID to work per-
fsctly and rapidly.
