A Midland Corporation print depicting that setting which reminds me of the classic Case print of a threshing yard.
Also a picture of the Dalrymple Bonanza farm. Great grandpa was a herdsman at Dalrymple. When mom would tell the story my young mind couldn t comprehend the aspect of herdsman. She then showed me a picture of a field of wheat with numerous teams hauling bundles to the stacks being built. There are 28 wheat stacks in the picture built prior to threshing and they stretch beyond the horizon. Mind you that these stacks were the means of protecting the crop until the threshing crew got set up. I can t say how long it would take to thresh out 28 stacks or for that matter a section of wheat with a 28-46 Red River Special run by an 80hp Case? Also keep in mind that some engines burnt straw as a fuel. Later Gas tractors eliminated that need. I would venture a guess that the straw was collected and stored either outside or inside a mow for use fairly close to home.
