Abstract: A crop saving attachment is affixed to the outermost snouts of a combine crop header such as a corn header by being fastened only to the gathering point at its downwardly facing rear U-shaped edge and the metal tip at the forward end of the gathering point. The crop saving attachment is movable with the gathering point as it pivots relative to the rear snout section and the wall of the attachment extends upwardly and rearwardly over the rear snout section to deflect down corn stalks laterally inwardly towards the header snapper rollers.

Abstract: A mud scraper assembly includes a scraper blade mounted on the lower end of a scraper arm which in turn has a clamp at its upper end mounted on the sleeve of a depth gauge wheel support arm. No alteration of existing planter structure is required for adapting the mud scraper assembly to a Deere Max-Emerge planter and planters having generally the same structure. An adjustment screw is provided on the clamp for engaging the wheel support arm at a point remote to the shaft axis on which it is mounted to pivot the scraper arm into close proximity with the depth gauge wheels as needed.
