Tractor pulling a grain binder through a wheat field

Description
-
Sepia-toned image of a two-wheeled tractor pulling a grain binder through a field of wheat. The binder cut the grain near the base, then the large paddle wheel swept the stalks into the binder where they were gathered and bound with twine by a mechanical knotter. The bundled grain was then dumped off to the side to be placed into a shock for further ripening before being loaded on a wagon and taken to the thresher. Museum records do not identify a location for this image, which is part of the Herbert McMullen bequest. McMullen was a local photographer who also collected photographs and images from around the area.
