So much work without machines. Granted it can be done but it would take every ounce of effort from a family and not all can work that hard. Thresing is hard work brother.

Even in the early days of this country, you paid the threshers with the steam engines to process your crop.

We used to go to the steam shows. My father was facinated by them for some reason. I saw every kind I think.
