They used a binder on the horse farm to cut the oats. Three Amish men were hired to shock the bundles and ready them for threshing. The three men shocked the bundles in three hours. The threshing of the oats is scheduled for August 27 and they will use the work horses and a crew to haul the bundles to the threshing machine.

Loved this picture with the wheat straw flying as it is ejected from the old threshing machine. I had never watched one of these work before, so I found it interesting.

Faction Name: Jedi Order

Character Name: Thresh Nordon

Race: Human

Status: Jedi Youngling

 

Story:

When the Jedi found me I was six years old, alone, weak, and near death. While I have no memories of parents, the Jedi who found me said I kept muttering about a brother I needed to take care of. I wonder what happened to him....

Though I was weak and pathetic, the Jedi still managed to train me to being what I am today.

A Jedi Sentinel, and a particularly skilled one at that.

The Jedi trained me so I was adept with the force as well as light-saber combat, but my true talents were stealth and ingenuity.

I suppose those attributes are what contributed to me being a Jedi Sentinel.

I was the last youngling in my class to become a padawan, but that didn't stop me from trying my hardest to make it worth the trouble of finding me on my homeworld and saving me from death.

After three years of being a padawan, the Jedi sent me to be a padawan to a Jedi Sentinel, who ironically was the Jedi that found me.

Now I am a full fledged Jedi Sentinel, and as I have been told, one of the best.

From Wikipedia

 

The Advance-Rumely Company of La Porte, Indiana was organized in 1915 as a producer of many types of agricultural machinery, most notably threshing machines and large tractors. Advance-Rumely was purchased by Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Company in 1931, and the company's main works would become what was later known as the "La Porte plant".

Thanks to various mergers and acquisitions, the company's origins stretched as far back as 1836. However, the origin of the two components of the corporate name—Advance Thresher Company and M. Rumely Company—were somewhat newer, though still long-lived in the agricultural equipment industry.

 

History

Advance Thresher and M. Rumely

 

Meinrad Rumely emigrated from Germany in 1848, joining his brother John in the operation of a foundry in La Porte, Indiana. This basic operation gradually expanded by 1859 into the production of corn shellers and complete threshing machines powered by horses. Following success in this new field, Meinrad then bought out his brother's portion of the business and incorporated it as the M. Rumely Company by 1887. Starting in 1895, the line expanded to include steam-powered traction engines. Meinrad died in 1904, but his sons continued to manage the business. Rumely's most famous product, the kerosene-powered Rumely Oil Pull traction engine, was first developed in 1909 and began selling to the public by 1910.

Meanwhile, Advance Thresher Company was founded in 1881 with a factory in Battle Creek, Michigan. In addition to their namesake threshing machines, this company was also a prolific producer of steam traction engines.

Acquisitions and mergers

From 1911-1912, M. Rumely Company began purchasing other firms in the agricultural equipment business. Both Advance Thresher Company and Gaar-Scott & Company were acquired during 1911. Then, in 1912, Rumely expanded further with the purchase of Northwest Thresher Company (out of Stillwater, Minnesota) and the American-Abell Engine and Thresher Company (out of Toronto, Ontario).

 

All these companies were first reorganized in 1913 as two connected firms: the existing M. Rumely Co. Inc. (effectively the manufacturing side), and the new Rumely Products Co. (the sales and distribution side). A further reorganization brought about the final Advance-Rumely Company by 1915, a move which both streamlined the organization and highlighted its famous forebears. Advance-Rumely hadn't quite finished its expansion goals, either: the Aultman-Taylor Company of Mansfield, Ohio was picked up in 1923.

 

Consolidation and takeover

Despite all of the history and diversity in engineering acquired along with all of their corporate assets during the 1910s, most of this was left by the wayside as Advance-Rumely sought to fold everything under its new brand name or that of Rumely. The general financial collapse of the Great Depression, beginning in 1929 and carrying on through the early 1930s, began to take its toll on Advance-Rumely.

As early as January 1930, the Rumely management began seeking a buyer for the company. Correspondence with Otto Falk, president of the Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Company, proved fruitful: Allis-Chalmers agreed to take over the firm and did so by May 1931.

 

Rumely had already discontinued its traction engine lines in favor of newer-style tractors, but Allis-Chalmers had a line of those that was quite successful. The remaining Rumely-branded tractors were discontinued. Allis-Chalmers was more interested in Advance-Rumely's line of threshing and harvesting machines (not to mention the sprawling plants that built them). Also of interest to Allis-Chalmers was Rumely's extensive dealer network, which was instantly converted to the complete Allis-Chalmers product line. And the "La Porte plant", as Advance-Rumely's main headquarters was now called, became known as the "Harvester Capitol of the World" thanks to its eventual production of Allis-Chalmers' successful All-Crop harvester line.

Allis-Chalmers would eventually succumb to bankruptcy and the dismantling of its vast business interests in 1985, but by that time Advance-Rumely was only a memory.

 

Products

This is most likely an incomplete list, but is representative of the bulk of Advance-Rumely's production (and that of some of its predecessors). Research is ongoing.

 

Traction engines and tractors

•Advance Traction Engine (1885–1917)

•Gaar-Scott Traction Engine (1885–1914)

•Rumely DoAll (1928–1932)

•Rumely GasPull (year?)

•Rumely Oil Pull (1910–1930)

•Rumely Six (1930–1931)

•Rumely Traction Engine (1895–1916)

•Rumely Truck (1918-?)

Combine harvesters

Advance-Rumely Number 1 Combine (1925–1929)

•Advance-Rumely Number 2 Combine (1926–1930)

•Advance-Rumely Number 3 Combine (1927–1936; line carried on by Allis-Chalmers after purchase)

•

•Advance-Rumely Number 4 Combine (1928–1929)

Grain processing equipment

Advance-Rumely Corn Sheller (1924–1925)

Rumely Corn Shredder (1901–1928)

Rumely Thresher (1904–1936; line carried on by Allis-Chalmers after purchase)

In addition to these lines, Advance-Rumely also offered stationary engines, silo fillers, water wagons, cream separators, plows, and a line of lubricating oils designed for the company's tractor lines. In addition, there is evidence that the company produced a cargo truck, but data is scarce.

Sunday Challenge Group - create a vintage photograph. After changing the tone and adding some noise and scratches......... I used layers to create a fake 'torn edge' then a shadow at the edge and finally trimmed the whole and flattened the image.

 

Please DO feel free to offer me any ideas you have which might improve an image. I really welcome constructive criticism.

Bioversity International’s Marketing Diversity team is developing ways to increase the livelihoods and equitable participation for rural poor communities by marketing underused crop diversity, for which there is currently no market or value chain - such as some traditional varieties of quinoa.

 

Bioversity International works with PROINPA and other local partners, to conserve a wide range of quinoa varieties in the Andean region, as part of an IFAD-NUS Project.
