Threshing Dixie Queen 
Watermelons. The thresh¬ 
er consists of a crusher and 
revolving reel which re¬ 
moves the seed. This, to¬ 
gether with the juice, flows 
into a washer on the side 
of the machine. The 
washer removes the juice 
and pulp and after rinsing 
the seed is ready for the 
drying trays. Note that 
the finest of the large 
melons are being threshed 
for the stock seed grade.
