The comb is in the for:1 of a segment of a circle, about three inches in diameter, with eleven conical-shaped teeth. Each machine is worked by a shearer, and, as the comb is fo.ced along the skin of the animal, the fleece is cut. The machine can be rtin either with a steam or gas engine, or by ordinary horse power, and does not easily get-out of order. ~~ 4 Grotesque Goose Story.

I drive these gecse into that cotton patch and keep them there all day weeding out the cctton. ‘There is no water in the cotton patch, and I have to give them water in this way to keep them there.’ “ ‘But how do they get the water out of those gourds under their necks?’ “They drink out of each other's gourds, Each gourd has an opening in the side so that another goose can put his bill into the gourd and drink.

I drive these gecse into that cotton patch and keep them there all day weeding out the cctton. ‘There is no water in the cotton patch, and I have to give them water in this way to keep them there.’ “ ‘But how do they get the water out of those gourds under their necks?’ “They drink out of each other's gourds, Each gourd has an opening in the side so that another goose can put his bill into the gourd and drink.
