Replica of One Row Harrow Is Made By F A Marek Here
The Herald displays a replica of a one row harrow crafted by F A Marek in Cameron. The copy, scaled to near life size, mirrors a device his father Jazek Marek made in 1886 while the family lived in South Elm. Marek recalls using the harrow as a boy of 13 or 14, noting old farmers built many such implements on their farms. He fashioned the spinning teeth with a pocket knife and steel handles, producing a fine historic piece.
