THE COMBINE -HARVESTER
The Combine method, of harvest-
ing' has been thoroughly .tried in.
Eastern Canada over a periodof four
years and under widely varying
weather conditions. Over 725 com-
binetharvesters, were in use in Eas-
tern canada in 1940. A survey eon-,
ducted by, the Field Husbandry
et the 'Central Experimental
-Farm, Ottawa, states. J. M. Arm-
strong, covering 30 per tent of these
harvesters, shows that over 90 per
cent of those reporting are satis-
fied With the combine method of
harvesting.
The combine has `'reduced the la-
bour required at harvest time and
when esed sufficient' acreage
per year has affected a saving the
cost of hargestieg. In addition, under
the extrem,ely wet harvest condi-
tions encenetered ip some areas in
1940 the comhiee-harvester proved
most effective in saving grain: In
many cases the quality of combined
