He has three thrower wagons that he loads in the afternoon, then milks cows, then unloads them. He has an elevator running along the peak of the barn. He puts them on an elevator outside, that takes it up to the one along the peak, they drop off in the barn. He then goes up and stacks them, and moves on to the next load, so on and so on.....
