It \ was something like the old fashioned | weavers loom and it would almost take a | span of elephants to work it.. This was | about 42 years ago and he will remember | that he could run au old fashioned bindâ€" | er then as well as he couid teach the | rudiments of music. _ . ‘The harvest is past andâ€" the summer: will soon be ended. The aged pioneer is reminded of the many harvests hehas seen and bhis memory goes back to the time that the harvest was ~taken off with the sickle and later on the cradle and following up the years the old fashioned reaper with a man standing in a case made for him and putting off the sheaves with a rake or fork made for the purposes Then it was thought a great improve« ment when the self dropper was made agd than what a wonder whan the bindâ€" er was introduced. * Now we will take a backward look ‘ and pass over the intervening months since the tiller of the soil went forth to sew the seed .. He was up late and early faithfully sowing the differedt kinds of seed, still trusting in the promise given that seed time and harvest would, come in their season and that the sower would be abundantlp rewarded for his arduous labors in giving him an abundan} harâ€" vest. _ Now that he has realized the fulâ€" ffiment of the promise by being the reâ€" cipient of a good return, he is now labâ€" oring harder still by attending the maâ€" chinery for separating the/grain, stra w and chaff and filling his bins with the pure contents separated from the heavy l sheaves. Now let us go back again to over three ‘ score years ago and view the manner then of separating the grain from the 1 straw by using the old fiail or as it was called, the stick and a half, and then later on the late Wm Purdy introduced the one horse treader thresher, changing horse every half hour. _ The quantity threshad would be from 25 to 30 bushels. and the price per day being $7 and wheat at 50¢ or less a bushel. _ An old merchâ€" ant, Mr Legate of Durham, would not even give goods at that price. So after deducting all expenses it would be a good question for a little boy at school to find out how mucl the farmer had clear after all concerned was paid. But passing to later improvements the old open thresher was introduced driven by four pair of oxen with ifour other pair waiting to take their turn as they wore changed every hour. _ If the wheat was good about 100 bushels a day would be threshed. PRICEVILLE AND LIMITS In 1860 the late McArthur Bros. of Caledon brought up an an old Brampton separator and to the youngster who nevâ€" er saw the like it was more of a wonder to them than to the youth of the pl?;ent age t work The first steam thresher was introâ€" duced in this neighborhood by thelate Hector McDonald about 30 years ago and then a little later on by Colin Meâ€" Lean who now runs a second big threshâ€" er, with all the latest improvements. And he is at work now clearing out the contents of the small farmers of Priceâ€" ville before he enters into the big farms of Artemesia and Glenelg. The McKinnon boys are on the south line this week and find that where there was only one half days work last year, there will be a whole day this year‘ So again we repeat the harvest is passed and the summer is ended. Now we will give a few items of presâ€" ent events Sunday a m. frost was to be seen till nine o‘clock and kept cool all day . It is said that the grain is turning out well. â€"Hugh McKinnon & Sons on their Egremont farm of 25 acres had over 1000 bushels of oats and others accordâ€" ingly Mrs John McKinnon and daughter Miss Annie of Manitoulin Id., paid a short visit to the MecKinnon family, (Hugh‘s). _ Mrs MeKinnon was Ann Cameron, born and raised the lot west of Rob Roy.
