When I was a teenager back in the 50s, my Dad used a Papec silage blower made in Shortsvile NY would not of guessed one of them would have made it all the way across the country. We had an Octagon silo about 14 ft. across, and ran the blower with an 1951 8 N Ford that dad bought new in 1951. The 8n ran the PTO corn harvester and then it was hooked to the blower and loads were hauled with my Uncles Dodge Doodlebug. The horses went down the road when the 8N arrived. I never really minded pitching corn silage out of that little silo. Took off a 4inch layer every day to feed 15 cows and young stock. Dad built a narrow silage cart that would fit around the corners in the barn. He milked the cows with a Universal milker that milked two at a time and the vacuum pump hung from a track and followed the milker along as the cows were milked. Had a radio from a 1949 Buick and we used to listen to The Cisco Kid and The Lone Ranger at night. Some day I'll have to write all this down for my Grandchildren.
