Dad never got a corn sheller. Ours was shelled at the feed mill, as we needed it. We had a corn binder, and a grain binder. After we cut it, we had to set it up to air out.

Forked the manure into a wheel barrow out of the gutters and box pens to a pile, then forked it back into a spreader in the Spring. I guess that's why it took so long to do anything compared to now days.
