Slim goes into the barn to milch the cow.

[Steel Horse Bailey]

I didn't know milch  was a verb.  But it is in Engrish - why not Germerman, too?

Slim, you got any of those brown cows that give chocolocolate milch? 

[Silver Creek Slim]

Brown Swiss. 

[Delmonico]

Delmonico looks at Slim and says, "If ya make cheese from that milk it has holes in it."

[Silver Creek Slim]

"And brown." 

[Delmonico]

<Author's Note: Did ya know "Swiss Cheese" as most know it t'was invented in Wissy-consion in the 1860's?  Switzerland has many cheeses, some with holes and some not, but they don't make "Swiss Cheese." >

[Silver Creek Slim]

<Arthur's note: Probably invented by a Deutsch.> 

[Delmonico]

Pleased with the sucess of his steam powered chicken plucker, Delmonico has another idea and heads to the barn workshop.

[Silver Creek Slim]

"Stay away from my cow!" 

[Delmonico]

"Don't want nuthin' to do with yer cow."

Delmonico starts up the forge.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico hammers out a small slanted blade.  When it is done he tempers it and sharpens it.

[Sod Buster]

Pleased with the sucess of his steam powered chicken plucker, Delmonico has another idea and heads to the barn workshop.

Back at his Soddy, Sod Buster dreams of a steam-powered corn shucker and a threashing machine for the winter wheat that will growing fast soon.

[Delmonico]

Delmonico goes out to the shed to get some wood.

<Authors note: When it's corn pickin' time we'll get Slim to do it.  Delmonico can hook a hose up to the coffee maker on his engine and we can scald Slim when he slows down.  Would that count as a steam powered corn picker? >

[Delmonico]

Delmonico makes a small wooden table about 24 inches by 18 inches.

Delmonico then takes an 8 ft 4X4 and cuts it in half.  The two 4X4's are attached to two corners of the table, stickin' straight up and a cross piece is made for the top and braces to hold it upright.

A shucker looks like this:



A hand husker looks like this:


or how about a belt-driven model?

[Delmonico]

<Authors note: I have items 3 and 4.  #4 I have two of them, remember we are the Cornhusker State.  Disclaimer, t'ain't got nuthin' to do with the hired help at the Looney-versity that play foots-ball.  Last I knew the world champion Cornhuskin' Comp-o-tit-ion was held in Newbrasky.  Sodbuster ya fergot the wagon with a bang board. >

Delmonico adds wooden tracks to the uprights on his contraption.
