An historical summary traces the development of the wheat stripper from early illustrations in London Encyclopaedia of Agriculture to Ridley's claims of origin and later improvements. It notes demonstrations in the Windawarsh district, adoption in Australia, and the Californian harvester as a comparison. The piece details operation benefits, lighter draught, and high efficiency with reports of 72 bushels per acre and 240 bushels in a day under favorable conditions.
