The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-08-01
Harvesting the Bean Crop

this implement sharp and running it
shallow one row of beans may be cut
at a time. Ii cultivator is used all
the shovels are removed and long
sweep is attached to each side Of the
inside shanks. The sweeps are made
to stand inward and backward at an
angle of about 60 degrees. They are
long enough to overlap each other.
The beams of the cultivator are then
wired together in order to keep them
from spreading. In using either of
these devices care must be taken not
to run the knives too deeply. Small
clods are sometimes left fastened to
the roots of the plant. They are
often so near the size of the beans
that it. is difficult to separate them
from the seed during the threshing
process.
The vines are left piled in the field
until they are thoroughly dry. The
length of time required in drying
depends upon the weather conditions
and also upon the amount of green
material in the vines at cutting time.
1t seldom requires more than two or
three days for the vines to dry enough
to be hauled to the bean huller or to
be stacked in the field or in sheds.
Stacking in the field before threshing
is growing in favor since in this way
large acreage may be handled with
out so much danger OF damage from
rain. Another advantage of stacking
is that the vines and pods become
tough after standing a week or ten
days and may be threshed with less
danger of cracking the seed than If
threshed from the field. This tough
ness is due to the fact that the vines
go into a sweat after they are stacked
and do not become thoroughly dry for
three or four weeks after the sweating
process begins Another advantage
claimed for the stacking method is
that the beans in the green pods at
cutting time have chance to ripen
before threshing The beans are
usually stacked on a layer Of straw II
or IA inches in thickness in order to
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-08-01

grain separator. The front cylinder
threshes only the beans from the
driest pods. The vines, together with
the tougher pods pass to the rear
cylinder, thus the heanS and the
tougher pods are threshed by the high
velocity cylinder while the dry beans
pass through only the one running at
low rate of speed. Much cracking
is prevented by this arrangement.
A grain separator may, by proper
manipulation, be made to do very salts
factory work provided the beans have
been stacked long enough for them to
go into the sweat. The vines and
pods are then much more nearl~
uniform In dryness. All but one row
of concave teeth and generally half of
the cylinder teeth are removed The
cylinder is run at a speed of from 800
to 400 revolutions per minute. the
speed depending upon the diameter of
the cylinder. The larger the cylinder
the slower it must be run as the teeth
of the large cylinder travel at
greater rate of speed than do the
teeth of a small cylinder running at
the same number of revolutions per

so that the separating part of the
machine runs at the Usual speed for
separating grain.
The tailings from the sleeves are re-

By this arrangement none of the
threshed beans pass through the
cylinder the second time. IT there
is large amount of green pods the
tialings are sometimes taken from
the machine at the bottom of the
elevator. In this way it is often p, s.
sible to avoid mixing the green beans
with those that ale ripe. 1t the
regular grain separator is used the
tbresh1ng should be done while the
vines are in the sweat for at that lime
the seed is tough and are not easily
cracked. Growers who have only
small acreage often do their thresh-
ing by means of a fail. Two men
can fail out and clean about 1900
pounds per day In this way. Failing
is slow process, however, and is not

keep the pods from coming into con-
tact with the ground. The straw also
serves the purpose of catching any
seed that may be tramped out during
the stacking operation. The shatter-
ed DEANS and straw are sepaI ated by
running both through the thresher.
The stack is started about eight feet
wide by II feet long. 1t is gradually
bulged outward until at a height of
six or seven feet it is 10 or IL feet
wide by 16 or Is feet long The top
is then gradually drawn in until when
finished the stack is about IL feet
high. In order to keep out moisture
each rick is covered with a large
tarpaulin which is anchored to the
ground by means of guy ropes to pre-
vent its being blown off.
In case it rains before the beans are
stacked they should be turned with
pitch forks Immediately after the
storm is over. The pods must not lie
too long on the wet ground as the
seeds absorb moisture very readily
and are liable to become discolOred.
Care must also be exercised in handl-
ing beans after they become thorough
ly dry, for the pods crack open easily
and much loss may result from shat
tering of seed.
Owing to the fact that a consider
able loss may be suffered through
Encouragement of the machine,
threshing is perhaps the most exacting
of all operations connected with the
production of dry beans. The seed is
so easily cracked that it Is difficult to
get machine that will do effective
work. Beans threShed with a fail are
usually in the best condition for
market but this is too tedious and
costly a process for large acreagee.
The threshing is usually done with
the bean huller using either steam
or gasoline engine for power. The
machine is designed to minimize the
loss by cracking. The huller, in
reality, IS a double thresh1ng ma
chine. There are two cylinders, one
of which is placed in the rear of the
other. The rear cylinder operates at
a much faster speed than does the
front one. The cylinder teeth are set
one-fourth of an inch farther from
the concave teeth tEan in the regular
