Madison Independent, 25: "Soon after
the rain on Tuesday we saw q threshing
engine stuck on the street. They had a
water tank and separator hitched behind

enough to make it slippery on top, and
the drive wheels would just spin around
and dig a hole in the earth and then
they would have to get a plank under
them, but it would not run any further
than the plank" TIE, be, he.
