Man, that brings back memories. I grew up on a dairy farm that had between 50-70 cows. Yes, we fed with small square bales and seems like about every-other week we were baling alfalfa. Two older brothers, myself and dad would put up hay. Except for one time that I can remember, dad did not stack the trailers. He would drive the tractor that ran the baler or he would throw the bales off the trailer on to the bale elevator. (He had a bad heart) We used a John Deere G and a New Holland 269 to bale. For many years, I had no idea what a live PTO was. Two people would be baling and two people would be stacking bales in the shed. We later got some diesel Oliver tractors to help put up hay. It was my job to drive the G, the baler and two bale trailers to the alfalfa field, about 8 miles away from our farm. I also had to drive a very slow Allis Chalmers C to the alfalfa field shed, pulling the bale elevator. Man, that was BORING! We baled with twine, not wire, and I wore out blue jeans and leather gloves very quick.
