(CP)+-The in- vention of modern gasoline powered combines and traglors made the old steam engine obsolete years ago. ' But once a year on the Spree- man farm near this central Al- berta town, an ancient steam en- gine and separator are brought out of retirement long enough to provide a few thrills for oldtimers --and the younger set, for that matter. Allan Spreeman and his sons, Elmer and Waiter farm 1,200 acres with 800 acres in crop. They have a liking for modern machinery and their farm is well stocked with it. But they also have a yen for something old. This fall they again brought out a 1922 Case steam engine, re: ported to be the last new one sold in Alberta. The threshing machine is a 1908 Case, ANOTHER RUN The Spreemans bind and stock | Ancient Engines Thrill Youngsters about 50 acres of their cro) year so they can give the oul- fit another run Binding and stook- ing aren't necessary with the mod- ern combine, which cuts and threshes the grain in the same operation. $ Observers trekked to ihe Free. man farm this fall 'to watch the old outfit at work. Oldtimers took turns stocking the fire, the steam pressures, pullinz the ducl-tone whistles, while fhe resi of the spectators took pictures, watched and visited. Walter Freeman said the old machines can thresh' up to 4,000 bushels of wheat in a day and can turn out 700 bushels of oats an hour. x In sharp contrast to these ancient threshers were the modera traet- ors pulling rack wagons that brought the grain to the machines. A new truck hauled water for the steam engine and another truek hauled the grain. ; There wasn't a horse in sight. 5 Silver Crosses New Japanese Army By JIM CARY age of defeat.
