This is my third year with the Harvestall system, and I’ve found it to be ideal for my setup. I’ve harvested corn at3o%with no problem. The thing I really like about the Harvestall is that I don’t have to babysit a dryer, i can fill it and forget it. Plus there are really no major moving parts to wear out or break down. “I can cure down 26%-30% corn for around 6C to 8C a bushel. 24%-25% would run considerably less. “The way the Harvestall works is simple and effective. As for those who are skeptical, it’s like the bumble bee: according to scientists he’s not supposed to be able to fly. But he’s too dumb to know it, so he flies anyway. So regardless of what anyone says, the Harvestall system works. It works for me and I’m happy with it. I do recommend the Harvestall for its economy and for its considerable savings on energy.” Ch t ... s Ip ■r IV , wrarkS big energy savings and I don’t have to babysit dryer.** RD 2, Box 174 Elverson, PA 19520 215-286-9118 Ken Sauder Milford Mast 717-656-6519 215-286-9118 York DHIA J,ncaster Saturday, December 6,1980—A31 meeting David Stewart, Delta Rl.

The gram keeps all its feed value, there is less shrinkage than with heat drying because only moisture is removed, not dry matter You’ll never see white dust m chillcured corn. You actually save half of what you’re used to losing in heat shrink There’s no oil or gas to buy Natural air carries away heat and moisture as the corn releases it.
