Title of Work:	Oxen mowing, Belfast
Date of Work:	1911
Medium:	photograph
Period/Style:	twentieth century

Citation:
Index Words:	oxen, mowing
Place:	Maine
Notes:	From 1829 to 1860 more progress was made in the development of labor-saving devices for the farmer than in all of previous history. One of the most appreciated by Maine farmers was the invention of the mowing machine. It was a long time before these became commonplace on Maine's farms, but by the early 1880s most farmers had put down their scythes and were using mowing machines. You'll realize how welcome the mowing machine was if you imagine yourself standing in the middle of a big field, with the sun beating down on you, a big, heavy scythe in your hand, and tall grass all around you as far as you can see. In this photo, taken August 14, 1911, the mowing machine is being pulled by a team of young Holstein oxen. They are mowing swale hay on soft ground. Oxen are better than horses for this kind of job. Horses tend to crowd and lunge on soft ground. Oxen move more slowly.
