Harvester invention date

"In 1914, a local farmer named Headlie Taylor invented the header harvester..."

According to http://www.austehc.unimelb.edu.au/tia/016.html Taylor patented the header harvester in 1913.

And see:

which has a photograph of Headlie's header. The 'Historic Engineering Marker' linked to from this site also gives the date as 1913.
