:,1// 1/140 ' THE MACHINE SHOP WORK
Not for some time now could farming have been practised on the small scale style
familiar in the world of yesteryear.
.If today we had to rely on the old-time cradle methods of cutting and garner-
ing the crop, if would take every able-bodied man in every province of our Dominion
to harvest the average wheat crop of Western Canada. Thanks, however, to
modern farm machinery, with practically no seasonal increase in hired labor, the
farmer is able to take care of, even the heaviest of harvests. The mdking of the
machines for harvesting is but transference of labor from the field to the factory.
Instead of the short seasonal engagement during the rush days of harvest,
the implement worker is given longer periods of employment, and the days he
spends in making farm equipment lessens the number of men required in the farm
field. Thus, these men, during the winter months, help make short work of garnering
greater crops during the few and fleeting days of harvest season, and so many of
the men thus engagedhave themselves come from farm homes.
It was only natural when turning their faces city -wards, that men from the
farm should first seek employment with a company whose name to them had been
a household word,
In Massey -Harris, whose origin ninety years ago was on a farm, these one•
time farmers flnd a rather logical expression for their abilities in the mechanical
side of farming—for while in forge or machine shop—they also farm.
