McCormick's Memory
Honored BY Marker
At His Birthplace

dress of Cyrus Mccormick, Jr.,
who paid tribute to his illustri-
Gus grandfather.
The house in which McCor-
mick perfected the reaper is
a little wooden shack which pre-
sents a very picturesque APP
pearance. The marker which
has been unveiled to him is but
a stones throw from the house.
The weather-beaten old house
and the marker near it, sur
rounded by grassy and wooded
lands, form a romantic memo
rial to the man who has meant
SO much to agriculture
- rus Mccormick was born
right on the farm where the
marker now stands, in 1899.
He completed the first practi-
cal reaper at this same location
in 1881, when he was but %
years of age.
The Introduction of the reap
err worked wonders in the eff
cheney of farmers. At firstma-
ny rallied against the use of the
reaper, preferring to go on do
ings things in the old-fashioned
manner. But gradually this OPP
position was dispelled, and the
reaper became a standard ma
chine used everywhere.
1t has saved time and energy
for thousands of farm workers
The young boy who in 1881 pre-
sented the fruit of his laborS
