Eugene Brown of this city has patented a sack piler and loader and the new machinery will be manufactured in this city. At least 10 men will be at work next month making the new machines which will be placed on the market at once. Two kinds of machines will be manufactured. One loads sacks on a wagon from a pile in the field and will sell for $25. Another will pick up sacks scattered over a field by a combine harvester and place them on a wagon. It will sell for $30. One man with the machine can load as much grain as two men can by hand, and much easier.
