Thomas Tinney is a busy man
these days. He is running a thresh-
ing outfit and has been working from
early dawn till long after dark.
On Friday he threshed 10 acres of
oats for Gus Swartz which yielded
1851 bushels. Not so bad.
A few days prior he threshed the
oats from eight and one-half acres
belonging to Lew Emch and the yield
averaged 81 IL bushels per acre. If
any one can beat this, please let
us hear about it.
