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 peer .W.
