Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prairie Farmer's Directory of Montgomery County, Illinois: Directory of the Farmers of Montgomery County, With Valuable Information About Each Farm; Breeder's Directory, Giving Full Classified List of Breeders of Purebred Livestock and Poultry To have to await th services of an expert when every minute of the har vest days is money is not only an ex pensive practice, but in most cases is an' unnecessary one if the Operator will only use patience and good judg ment and try to understand a few very simple principles of what seems a complicated machine. The purpose of this article is to aid the operator in his most common binder troubles. To cover the ground in the most log ical and concise manner, let us con sider troubles under the three general heads: general binder troubles, bind er head troubles and knotter head troubles. Starting. If possible, start the new machine on a road or in a pasture before going into the grain field. Use plenty of kerosene and run the ma chine empty for about five minutes, taking notice that every duct to bear ings and every oil hole is Open. Then apply lubricating oil. When you are readv to enter the grain with a new machine, raise the machine well up, tilt the platform forward; Open the throat of the machine by throwing the butt adjuster forward and start in with about one-half of a full swath. After five minutes work the machine is ready for maximum results. If compelled to make a full swath at the start, cut the grain extra high. Never change the adjustment of a new binder head before going into the field. It may miss a few bundles at first, but do not adjust. Apply a lib eral amount of coal oil to the knotter head and the trouble will usually dis appear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
