Farm Machiu ery.

When machinery was first introduced
upon the farmers of this country there
was bitter opposition made against it,,
not only by the hired hands, who thought
they saw their occupation leaving them,
but even the farmers themselves could
not approve of such Ruthless work. Now,
however, this is all changed, and espec-
tally on the dairy farm. where every
new machine or improvement on the
old one is welcomed at least for trial.
In This way we have seen all the modern
methods taken up and tried fairly and
squarely The last to 90 through this trial
was the separator. which became so
favorably fixed in the good opinion of
the people that scarcely single factory
dare proceed without one, unless
there was some exceptional features
surrounding 1t. The next machine to
come into general use will be the But
ter Extractor, which takes off more
than half the labor needed with the
separator and makes the finest of butter
without the need of skill The farmers
want it, and the creameries will have it.
Such has been the history of all good,
practical machines since the first prejG-
dee of the farmers was overcome

good account of the early history
