Husking. - An implement for husking indian corn is formed from a thin narrow strip of steel, one end of which is pointed and the other provided with a catch or other means for securing the end of a strap. The strip is curved transversely and waved longitudinally, the waves corresponding with the positions of the fingers of the hand. A strap is attached by a stud and loops of wire so as to encircle the first finger and then the next two, the strap being secured finally to the catch or like device at the end of the implement.
