I have about come to the conclusion to go to a used hough or case W14 or ?? loader. I really like my 560 and run a lift pump with it to irrigate some fields with gated pipe and it has nearly 20,000 hours on it now. Dad purchased it new and it is still pretty good for the duty it has seen.
I presently have a loadstar 1700 truck (mid 60's) turned around and it has a Case 72L loader mounted on it and it will only stack bales 3 high but since I have no shed and want to tarp all good hay 4 high would be cheaper to tarp and more expensive to get out of the hospital if you fell off.
The old truck works good. I want to find a automatic trans to put on the engine and move the 4 speed towards the diff. and run it in 2nd gear for better preformance and easier shifting. I also plan to install power steering powerd from the hyd system as it already has a gresen 15gpm pump mounted to the front of the engine. It is really a crude looking creature but works pretty good. I can stack 25 bales per hour with it on 3 gallons of gas.
I want to keep the old loadstar loader since it is gas powerd to use in the dead of winter if it is really cold when someone comes out wanting to purchse 1 to 10 bales to keep from having to start a big diesel or even the 560 diesel which starts hard when cold.
If anyone would like a picture of my loadstar loaderlet me know and I will post one

Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
