Threshing rice

Farm women are threshing harvested rice with a treading machine. The woman wearing a head towel might be the mother and the other two women her daughters. The location is the garden of the farm house. The threshed rice is drying on mats spread on the ground. Firewood is piled up in the warehouse in the background. The time is Meiji, but the location is unknown.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number51‐23‐0]

    Stirring the paddy field

    A farmer is cultivating the field using black-haired cow at a rice paddie in Uji. A rope and a plow are tied to the back of the cow and each time the cow pulls the plow, the rice paddie is cultivated. A big warehouse is behind and a small shack covered with mats is made temporarily next to it, and a farmer with a balance pole is carrying goods. The rice seedlings may be preserved in the shack. This photo could have been taken by the British photographer H. G. Ponting in 1904.==Date:1904, Place:Uji, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐24‐0]
