FARM LABOR
SAVING MACHINES

Owing to the scarcity Of farm la
bor, the farmers of Mason Valley are
last turning toward labor saving ma
cl1inery. The past week has seen sew
eral sales made by our local mer-
chants Of side delivery rakes and hay
leaders. The side delivery rake fol
lows I'D the mower in the field and
gently rolls the hay over to the side
of the rake in a winrow with the leav-
es on the inside and steems out, Civ
ing free circulation Of air thru the
hav which means better cure Tor
the crop. The leader is attached to
the rear of hay wagon, and as soon
as the hay is ready for the stack, the
wagon with the loader attachment Is
driven astradle OF the winrow anc
bv means of the elevator on the lead
er. the hay is picked up and placed on
the wagon. As soon as one wagon Is
loaded. the attachment is hitched tc
the next wagon and it is filled and
delivered to the stack. 1t is esti.
mated that these machines will save
the labor of three men in the field and
do the work much more rapidly.
The slogan of today is efficiency
in every line OF endeavor, and cspeci-
ally beneiitting to all is efficiency on
the farm.
