Like the thresher, this machine was generally owned by an outside agent; it travelled from farm to farm to process each farmer's fodder.
"Frying Pan Farm"
Elizabeth Brown Pryor
This yer thresher of yours may get through the sheaves with a lot of dust an' rattle an' smoke, but give me the old floor, an' the oxen tramping out the ear, an' the neighbours coming to the supper.
"Tales from the Veld"
Ernest Glanville
I've done all sorts of jobs on a farm, from splitting rails to feeding a steam thresher, and they are picnics beside what you are now at.
