COURSE ON HARVESTERS
For the third year in succession a Christchurch machinery firm is sponsoring a course for owners of headerharvesters at Lincoln College.
The aim of the courses is to improve the efficiency of beader operators at harvest
time and enable them to get better performance from their machines.
The opportunity to attend a short course has received a marked response from header owners every year. This week 80 owners from throughout the South Island, most from Otago and Southland, are attending the course. The lecturer is Mr F. Sedhoff, South Pacific representative for the Claas organisation, of Germany. He is stationed at Albury, New South Wales. Mr Sedhoff not only travels to New Zealand every
year to lecture on harvesting crops common to this area, but he also visits Japan to lecture on the harvesting of rice with his company’s machines. After the course for owners of header-harvesters, a course will be run for agricultural contractors, with emphasis on the application of agricultural chemicals. It is being conducted by the agricultural section of the Contractors’ Federation, and the lecturer will be Mr C. Blick, of the Technical Correspondence Institute, Wellington.
