415 Bittle Road, Littlestown, PA 17340
This is a picture of cutting wheat on the George Bittle farm
near Littles town, Pennsylvania on July 4, 1985. It is a 1916 8-16
Mogul tractor owned and operated by LeRoy A. Baumgardner, Jr.
pulling an eight foot McCormick-Deering binder owned and operated
by George R. Bittle.
It was good standing wheat, approximately three feet tall. All
went well until the bolts pulled out of the tongue which caused a
small delay. It was soon fixed and we were going again. All in all,
we cut about three acres of wheat.
