A NOTE FROM MR.. ARCHER

We have received from Mr.. Samuel
Archer the following postscript to his
excellent article on sheep shearing
elsewhere in this issue:
"Since writing this chapter, 1 have
had a pointed though kind challenge
from a prominent sheep shearing i'm
plement or machine manufacturer to
test their machine thoroughly and
give them the benefit of the trial !;
which, of course, I could not honor
ably do otherwis than accept. Ho "
ever, being a writer for my indus
trial fraternity engaged in sheep hus-
bandry, l shall be free TO criticise
the machine or even wholly disap-
prove it if we find it unsatisfactory
or not economically adapted to the
use of our wool growers. 1 am in
clined to think the machine is all
right or they would not so anxiously
put it to test with us. If it proves
successful, 1 will publish a supple
mentary chapter later on, giving
full particulars.

KING CORN" TO THE RESCUE.

When the Pilgrim Fathers landed
at Plymouth Rock in 1920 corn grew
wild in North America, and during
the first long winter, after the land
ing, the existence of the brave little
colony depended upon the contribu-
ton of Indian Maize," or corn,
which the Indians took from their
slender stores and divided with the
white stranger.
History repeats itself. After 280
years corn again comes to the rescue
Owing to the partial failure of the
hay crop and the severe drOuth
which has prevailed throughout the
corn belt it will be necessary for
farmers to save all of their corn
stalks for feed. Not only must all
of the corn be cut, but it must all
be shredded. To do this effectively,
expeditiously and economically farm
ers should provide themselves with
both the corn binder and the corn
husker and shredder, two machines
that are now regarded by progressive
farmers as being invaluable. These
machines enable the farmer to save
all of his corn crop in good condi-
ton and in the least possible time.
The most successful machines
made for handling cor are the Nc
Cormick vertical corn-binder and
the Mccormick corn husker and
shredder. These machines are illus
trated and described in detail in a
handsome book entitled liking
Corn" published by the Mccormick
Harvesting Machine Co., Chicago,
q. S. A. The book is mailed free
and we suggest that all readers of
The Progressive Farmer write for it
at once.
