Nov the Russians
Have Watermelon
Threshing Machine
BY the Assoeioted Pres,

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Now
the Russians have a water
melon threshing machine"
It is so described in a Soviet
newspaper received here. It's
purpose: To separate seeds from
pulp. Formerly the melons were
left to rot in the fields, and the
seeds removed by hand.
The machine was developed by
a collective farm engineer Of
the Stavropol region, Comrade
Shchelbakov, in cooperation
with two mechanics. 1t uses an
electric motor and threshes six
tons of ripe melons a day. The
Soviet article says that after the
threshing the seedless pulp can
be used as cattle fodder.
What about the seeds? No
explanation is given, but Rus
slams sometimes eat them just
as they eat sunflower seeds.
Presumably most of the seeds
will go to grow more melons.
