Cotton-Picking Machine. (open access)

Cotton-Picking Machine.

Patent for a cotton-picking machine that arranges the picking elements at different elevations and spaces them apart "so that while several plants will be picked at the same time, only one portion of a plant will be worked on at a time," (lines 14-17), minimizing disturbance of the plant.
