The original photos were scanned at much higher resolution than you will see here, and were decreased in size due to image load times. If you would like a copy of the full sized image, email yamhillhistory@onlinemac.com so arrangements can be made.

NOTES:

Plowing photos were actually taken in eastern Oregon but the Combiner was invented by a Yamhill County's Mr. Strachen.
Threshing operations in photos #1 & #2 were performed by Fred Sitton.
Paine & Mischler joined in a Irrigation project in the late 1920's.
Nematode spraying took place south of Dayton.
Irrigation Tour - just easterly of Sheridan, Hwy 18.
Sauter Brothers - that's a McCormick-Deering 15-30 ahead of the Holt combine.
