About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 Excerpt: ...after machine.5 Ibs" plant"" i. "" Total trash and cotton 36.5 Ibs. net. The above 35 Ibs. was found to be composed of 33 yi % of trash, therefore the Actual cotton picked by machine weighed '233 Ibs. lost"" %" Total cotton on row before machine ran over 24JJ" Or the total loss of cotton amounted to about 6% Time in running over row 381 feet long i min. 27.4 sec.

Time unloading and turning I min. 3 sec. Total time per row 5 min. I sec. Or for two acres of 21 rows about I 24 hours.
