I was round baling wheat straw in a hot dry year. A bale started smoking right in the baler. I kicked it out,left the baler running to keep tossing the flames out and got into a bean field. I got enough dirt thrown on it to put out the flames but I still had smoke.
The bale was in flames by that time. Fire was sperading across the field. Everytime it would get to another bale,it would burn the strings off,then the bale would burst open and throw flames all over. I headed for the road,got across to the house on the other side and had the woman call the fire department. I used her hose to finish putting out the smoldering chaff in the baler. I don't remember anymore how many bales burned up or how many acres of straw,but there was sure a lot of pressure released when those strings burned away.
