Pretty fancy rig for our 50's farm!Never has a crimper as we had no tractors with hydraulics! We mowed with a JD "A" pulling a New Idea trailing mower. Then raked with a Farmall "B" pulling a New Idea side delivery rake converted from horse drawn. When it was finally dry in a couple days if it didn't rain we baled it with the "A" pulling a New Holland 66 and loaded the bales by hand onto a rack my dad had built. Towed it to the barn with the "B". Pulled it into the mow with a block and tackle hooked to the "B". Unloaded it with a hayfork ten bales at a time. Pulled it out with the "B" again, hooked back on to the tounge and back to the field! Makes me hot and sweaty just thinking about it!And by local standards Dad was a VERY modern farmer!!
