About 55 years ago before I was a teenager, I used to spend part of the year on my uncle's farm He used to have a grocery store, then about 1949 he decided he was going to be a farmer. Bought himself a Ford 8n and went to farming. In the fall, He used to run the binder and bundle the corn. We'd pick it up haul it to the barn and run it through the old Papec Ensilage cutter and blow it into the silo. Then he went modern, bought a field chopper put 4 ft.sides on the hayracks, chopped the corn brought it to the silo where he had what seemed to be a big vacumn cleaner with about a 12 inch metal intake hose on it. It stuck up in the air and cameback down to where you parked the full wagon under it and then climbed into the wagon, and sucked it all up and the thing blew it up into the silos. Two big octagon silos about 30 ft. high built inside the barn. ANYBODY EVER USE OR SEE ONE OF THESE BLOWERS ???
