Our baling crew was two men and a small boy driving the neighbor's tractor pulling the baler since I was 8-9 years old, neighbor who owned the baler loaded the loads, Dad hauled in and unloaded in our barns, we fed the bales right where they stopped rolling down the pile of bales. When we baled for the neighbor who owned the baler jobs were all the same except a neighbor helped stacking the hay in the barn. We baled for that other neighbor some too, little straw, some hay. Dad owned a 50 ft Deere bale conveyor everybody used ONLY IF Dad went with it. He didn't even like Me to help him unload. The last time Dad and I baled was 20 acres of 2nd or 3rd cutting alfalfa I cut, I raked, Dad sent me after the baler, the old IH 55-T engine powered baler was replaced with a much newer #37 IH PTO baler. We had two racks, did 6 or 8 loads that day just the 2 of us. The Super H ran that baler just great in 2nd gear. When I raked for the 55-T I raked up MONSTER windows because I could idle down or clutch the tractor pulling the baler. Two rake swaths per window with the #37 was great. Neighbor across the road sold 40 acres of hay to a cattle sale barn in town one summer. Hauled it the 10 miles to town in livestock semi-trailers. Dad opted out of the project, was Me and neighbor on the baler, neighbor kid stacking IN the livestock trailer. Not hard to see why big round hay bales are so popular!
