Harvesters

You reap what you sow. Farming metaphors worked well in societies dependent on agriculture, and the idea of “you reap what you sow,” is that actions will have consequences and people can expect to harvest the fruit of their behavior, just as farmers expect to harvest the crops that they plant.

Of course, if you are that farmer, you actually reap what you sow. And until the combine harvester thresher came along, reaping wasn't always easy.

This week, a look at the history of the combine harvester thresher.
