- (continued from previous page)the farmer tells them. In a few days later he takes the corn away to be sold. He gets about five people with horses and cars. Then he loads the cars and the men drives the horses to the market.
Sometimes he gets a lorry to take it. Long ago there was a lot of labour with corn but nowadays everything is done by much quicker ways. The Reaper and Binder and the Threshing machine are very useful.
