Photos Of The Farm Work At Walden

Harvesting the crop.

 

Same again. A different, bigger harvester this time though.

 

Bagging the wheat once the hopper is full, next two photos.

 

Winnowing and rebagging the wheat.  It is the second of two photos in the collection which were obtained from large film negatives, as mentioned earlier. (This photo also appears on page 199 of the Thiele Family book).

 

Transporting the wheat to be sold, next two photos.

 

Bringing in a load of hay. There was no such thing as Workplace Health and Safety legislation back then I think.

 

The next three photos show the humongous haystack where the hay is being carted to. In the second one you can once again see the shadow of the photographer and camera.

 

The sheep at Walden, next two photos.

 

The next two photos show the main house dam at Walden being constructed/enlarged.
