in advance of his cutting apparatus at its outer end, as Salmon had done, 

 yet there was much in it for which the public was indebted to him. The 

 reel now exclusively used on harvesting machines, with the exception of 

 what are known as manual delivery reapers and mowing machines, is well 

 shown. Not only that, it is supported upon the main frame and extended 

 outwardly over the grain being operated upon, in such a manner as to 

 obviate many of the difficulties encountered by those who followed him 

 in their efforts to produce a machine for harvesting grain. The gavels 

 were delivered directly to the rear, and thus left in the path of travel of 

 the horse when making a succeeding cut. This, however, was obviated 

 by giving those who were to do the binding ''stations" — that is to say, 

 dividing the whole distance around the field into a number of parts equal 

 to the number of binders.

 MOISSONNEUSE OGLE. 



En 1822, une moissonneuse fut faite par Henry Og'le. La des- 

 cription suivante est prise de la specification de brevets ang-lais de 

 Woodcroft. 



"Dans cette machine la lame coupeuse recoit son mouvement 

 d'echappements places sur les roues de support." 



Quoique cesmoyens de communiquer le mouvement aient ete sans 

 valeur et quoiqu^Ogle n'avait pas g"agne en placant un diviseur a 

 Tavant de son appareil de coupe a Textremite exterieure, comtne 

 Salmon avait fait, ils contenaient cependant bien des cboses dont le 

 public pouvait tirer profit. Le rabatteur exclusivement en usage 

 maintenant sur les machines a recolter, a Texception de celles connues 

 comme moissonneuses et faucheuses a decharge a main, se voit bien. 

 Non seulement cela, il est supporte par le bati principal et prolong-e 

 exterieurement au-dessus du grain sur lequel on opere, de facon 

 a obvier a plusieurs des difficultesrencontreespar ceux qui le suivirent
