harvesting started by masseyharris combines trainloads of masseyharris combines rolling across the country to the grain farming areas are a common sight nowadays they have replaced the once familiar annual harvesters excursions which brought thousands of harvest hands to the prairies modern mechanical harvesters like the masseyharris selfpropelled combines have brought many advantages to grain growers with them crops can be harvested with the minimum of manual labor a great moneysaving feature when in times like these experienced farm help is in short supply and wage rates arehigh masseyharris selfpropelled combines speed up harvesting one man can cut and thresh 50 acres and upwards in a day operating costs are low too with a selfpropelled one motor supplies power to propel and operate the machine there is no expense for twine or stooking and the combine has done away with the work worry and expense of threshing time the demand for combines indicates the trend towards modern mechanical harvesting from factories with capacity increased greatly more and more masseyharris combines are being built to help canadian farmers harvest their crops easier quicker and at less cost
