EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the 1910s in the picturesque town of Waimate, New Zealand. The image showcases a traction engine and threshing machine, two essential pieces of farming equipment during the agricultural revolution of the early 20th century. The traction engine, a powerful and versatile machine, is hitched to the threshing machine, which is in the process of separating the wheat grains from the stalks. The intricate details of the machines' gears, levers, and belts are on full display, revealing the complex engineering that made these machines a game-changer for farmers. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush green fields and rolling hills, with a few farm buildings and trees visible in the distance. The clear blue sky and the sun peeking through the clouds add to the idyllic atmosphere. Farmhands, dressed in work clothes and hats, can be seen in the background, likely assisting with the threshing process. The sense of community and cooperation is palpable, as the team works together to bring in the harvest. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the farmers of the past, who used these machines to increase their productivity and adapt to the changing agricultural landscape. It also serves as a reminder of the rich agricultural history of New Zealand and the important role that farming continues to play in the country's economy and culture.
