In the years mechanization of has been very rapid, timers tell of barn threshings in November when the snow was falling and - frost numbed the fingers, but that is a thing of the past. Very few of our genera­ tion. remember the old hand­ cutter machine with the straw carriers. I have only seen one in operation in this area and that machine was owned by Charles Godbolt who did some clover threshing in this neighborhood about IS or 20 years ago. We. well remember the old steam engine owned by A. Day­ man. What fun it was for we kids to go down and watch Joe Kernick firing up. Man, was she a big one! And the water tank —for years you had to take the team and go to the creek a tank of water. Many were filled with a hand but -,A1 Dayman, handy, installed an on top of his. Alvin Moip was 25 years ago. His ______ __ driven by a Rumley “Oil Pull”. Many farmers, tired of hauling water, Alvin to thresh for them. But the threshing routes got smaller and smaller as the barn thresh­ ing gave way to stook threshings. When a custom operator, like the two mentioned, was unable to cope with the large acreage of perishable grain and more thresh­ ing machines appeared in the area. Some of these were owned by sydicates in the years before World War II. During the war, many farmers due to labour shortages investi­ gated the angle of “Combine Har­ vesting”. This had been practised in the Western Prairies for years but had not gained popu­ larity here machinery catered to first small Huron Hyde Brothers, dealers in Hensail, laughed at by many their radical ideas, those same men who sighted enough not advantages offered by a family farm-sized combine, own one and quite likely bought one from the Hyde Brothers. Although Allis Chalmers pioneered this size of combine all th© other major farm machinery companies have fallen in line until today there many makes, all with their own special features, available, haps an interesting fact is that th© original combine brought in being old cai’ to get tanks pump, rather motor very modern machine was wood and coal, coaxed in Ontario, as the companies had only large acreage. combine in The South was brought in by the Allis Chalmers They were farmers for but today were short- to see the by Hyde Brothers is still operat­ ing and doing a good job down in Fullarton Township, 13 miles east of Exeter. But the combine has not re­ placed the threshing machine. True, the large custom operator is gone and his place taken by the self-propelled combine; but the threshing machine still is in use and usually is owned by the individual farmer. Thresher manufacturers also had to fol­ low the trend of family sized units and today down the con­ cession you see a machine at least on every third farm. But conventional threshing is also on the way out. With the advent of the forage harvester some farmers sat down and figured again. They had a capi­ tal. investment in the harvester which could be offset by labor costs. They also by swathing could save many pounds of high priced twine. It costs today any­ where from four to seven pounds of twine an acre to tie the grain. When this cost is applied to forage harvesting a crop it amply pays for the gas to oper­ ate the harvester. More and more farmers after investigating this manner of harvesting are con­ firmed enthusiastic operators and say that they prefer it to com­ bine or what have you. It gets in the straw and grain with a family-sized crew — boys and girls who cannot handle a fork but can drive a tractor just as competently as $1.00 per board.

Goderich Police Deny Rumours Police at Goderich deny per­ sistent rumours of dope peddling activities in that area, a news­ paper report last week said. Police said that after lengthy investigation they found nothing to substantiate the rumours. Some of the statements being made in the Auburn, Blyth and Goderich areas were: that dope was peddled among a few stu­ dents at the Goderich District Collegiate Institute; that dope peddling activities centred around the Auburn Dungannon area; that the is being brought in from falo, New York; that an abortion set-up in a certain district area has been connected with the alleged’ dope peddling activities. When these rumours were checked, the police said they could find no one from whom concrete evidence could be ob­ tained.
