in 1942 grandpa moved to the farm the horses cut the hay raked the hay and loaded the hay . just think of all those hooves stepping on the hay. the animals survived. in 1954 a farmall 200 and fast hitch mower were purchased the only tractor that had a wide front was the wd9 which was only used to pull the baler around the H or the M raked the hay. in 1966 dad bought a 504 with a mower dad didnt have any wide front tractors yet the M and the oliver 77 raked the hay. in 1973 a haybine was tried the next year one was purchased grandpas 806 and dads 856 cut the hay all raking was done with narrow front tractors. then in 1990 dad and a family friend went into a dairy venture together. friend said driving on hay with narrow front tractors was bad so only wide front tractors were used.at the time they were raking with 3 rakes i had seen an article in a magazine on how to make a tandem rake set up with pipes. i just needed a dolly front for one of the rakes but was denied because to many leaves were lost. funny thing was i dont remember any great increase in milk production.
