Well If I could get $7.50 a bale I would think about delivering it. LOL I sold a fair amount of horse hay 30 years ago. At the time I was getting $2.50 a bale and $.50 per bale to deliver on loads 100 bales or larger.
Quit about 15 years ago and had gotten it to where I only delivered semi load lots. Had three large horse barns that had hired Mexicans an they did all the work. I just backed into the barn. Then they thought that they could buy hay out of the Dakotas cheaper. So I just cut the hay acres back to what I needed and crop farmed the rest. Made my life ten times easier.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
