Black and white photo of three men monitoring oats being moved in an auger.

In this photo, three men are pictured standing behind an auger watching oats being moved from the truck to a storage bin. The auger was placed on two wooden boards to block the wheels to keep it from moving. This image was taken by former South Dakota Extension photographer Leland Sudlow during his field work in the summer of 1960.
