The corn binder cut the stalks, made a bundle and tied the bundle with twine, and discharged the bundle out the back on to the bundle carrier if it had one. The bundle carrier held enough bundles for one shock and the operator tripped the carrier to discharge them out of the way for the next round so as not to run over them with the outfit. The bundles were then placed in a shock, usually 8 to 10 bundles, and tied together near the top and left in the field to dry. Cutting with a binder usually started in late September. After drying, The shocks were torn down and hauled the the barn where the husker - shredder was used to husk the ears & shred the stalks & leaves for bedding or feed or both. The ears were elevated to a wagon. I do this every year with a John Deere binder pulled with a '35 John Deere A. This is LOTS of heavy hand labor. I also have a one row corn picker to finish with when I give out shocking. I'll post video on U-Tube later on.
