Mechanical Prune Shakers Found to Be Labor Savers More and more Oregon prune growers are turning to mechani cal tree shakers as a means of saving thousands of hours of hard labor reports M. G. Huber, extension agricultural engineer at Oregon State College. Huber savs reports Indicate that mechanical shakers save at least one-half and frequently more of the time usuallv required In hand shaking. F. E. Bullock and Son of Oakland say that two men onerating their power shak er will even shake as many prunes in two hours as eight men could do in a day by thehand method. Trees can be cleansed as well bv mechanical shakers as by hand, general reports indicate. When prunes are picked twice growers find that the mechanical shaker will clean off more of the ripe fruit the first time over than hand shaking. Gene Fisher, Kellogg prune grower, found this to be the case. Two General Types Shakers used in Oregon, most of which have been home or cus tom made, can be classified in two general tvpes, Huber ex plains. One is the pull type that uses a flexible cable and hook to connect the power unit and the tree. The other is the push or boom type with positive motion both directions. There is no established derign among the shakers used in Ore gon, says Huber. The design to be used depends upon the kind of tractor available, the material to be had, and the ingenuity and mechanical ability of the builder. The shakers can be mounted on either a wheeled or tracklayer type of tractor, and may be op erated either from a power take off or by a separate engine pow er unit. The cable type, which is probably the easier to make, re quires two men to operate one to place the hook and the other to run the tractor. Huber advises making sure that the., shaking mechanism is strong enough apd mounted so as to 'be able to absorb the tractor's maximum null. While no printed directions have been issued for constructing a shaker, either Hu ber or county agents in prune Now Playing Here's the One You've Been Waiting for! Starts Wed! to 4 A J A f l TR!0' V!
