Never did a lot of traveling and at the times it is said the picker shellers and early combines with corn heads the elevators did not have any way to handle shelled corn. All corn that had any moisture had to be shipped same day or next day to a large terminal to dry it for storage and that was by truck. Local elevator if you wanted to put it on storage for later feed grinding just had a big old wooden crib to put the ear corn in. Elevators just had small hundred bushel per hour corn shellers to use when you brought ear corn in. First corn shelling we could do was with a Massey 35SP combine with a 2 row corn head. Started hauling picked corn to elevator with tractor when I had just turned 16. And all the corn around here is still grass green. Corn harvest might start first part of October.
