Threshing 2716

Standing at the very top of the threshing machine, this farmer regulates the rate at which other workers pitch bundles of grain onto the feed canvas.
Feeding bundles too slowly makes for inefficient threshing; feeding them too quickly risks plugging up the threshing machine.

This tells a story. I remember seeing this operation over 70 years ago.
