Belle City Threshers (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Belle City Threshers <p>I threshed and hauled my wheat to mill and had my money before anyone else in this county had begun to thresh, and by so doing I got from 10 to 20 cents per bushel more for my wheat, as the mills all wanted it at that time and there was no wheat coming in at that early date. Then it began to rain quite frequently after I was done threshing my wheat, and some of my neighbors who had fall wheat the same as mine lost a large per cent of it, and what they did thresh sold very cheap. <p>Very little help is required to operate the Belle City thresher. You and your boys or your hired help can handle it very satisfactorily. You do not have to pay for additional help, or pay back in work to your neighbors the assistance which you must call upon them to give you when large crews do your threshing. The work for your wife is not increased (you know how well your wife likes to cook for threshers), and you are not eaten out of house and home. <p>Doing your own work with your own help, you will not see how much you can get through the machine, but you will thresh and separate all the grain there is in the straw. <p>No expert is needed to Operate the Belle City - no previous experience in threshing is necessary. The capacity of the Belle City is exceptionally large considering the size of the machine. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

There is no farm tool which can turn as much profit if used to its fullest possibilities. <p>If a farmer desires to fall plow, following the binder with the disk harrow is the best thing he can do. The mulch which is formed by the dishing prevents undue evaporation from the surface and permits the moisture from below to soften the ground so that plowing is made easy.

Enables the farmer to make a compact seed bed in much less time than when plowing without previous dishing. This is of special value in late springs. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
