ON this date in 1840 - Joseph Gibbons received a patent for the seeding machine.

Bun Man and Mr. Purple were so appreciative.

This was one of their early jobs as before the seeding machine, farmers used to lay 10 persons prone on a horse-drawn sled and then fill their mouths w/ seeds which were spit as the horse worked the field.

The Boyz never could eat sunflower seeds after that job, so tragic.
