John Schmidt the owner of the new’ machine did the operating. The first grain harvested was a field of barley. The grain was cut with a windrower; after the bar ley had been left in the windrow for a few days the harvester-thresher, with a “pick-up*’ attachment, was used to harvest it. The same pro cedure was used in handling a field dt oats. Those who saw the new ma chine operate say that the harvester threshers are going to be a great ben efit to this community. The grain from the combine seems to be much drier than grain threshed from the shock. Grain from the combine has been grading very high.

This is the second successive year that Robbins Brothers have included among their attractions a Free Auto mobile Exhibit.

And the Robbins Brothers management have informed me that everywhere they travel the Auto Show is one of their best attract ions. “The crowds who visit our exhibi tion today at the circus grounds can feel assured that they will be afford ed courteous treatment and have any or all of their questions answered re garding the new Chevrolet Si*.” LOCAL NEWS.
