Round baler cheaper if handle under 500 tons A recently completed study by an Ontario agricultural college has found that the round baler is the most efficient and inex- pensive method of harvesting forage crops under 500 tons per year. However, if a farmer handles more than 500 tons, the stacker system is more economical. C. F. Murray, of New Liskeard College of Agricultural Technology, says that the round bale system is not suitable for all types of farming. "A round baler is unsuitable for dairy farmers who keep their cows confined for the winter, -since it is difficult to unroll the bales and feed it to the cows inside the barn. However, if the farmer works under a free -style system where the cows are allowed to go out- side, then the round bales can be used quite easily." To get a fair idea of the ef- ficiency of each of the harvesting systems, Mr. Murray examined how long it would take to harvest 100 tons of forage, how many men and at what rate the crop could be harvested. He found that square bales required 120 man-hours, with four or five men on the job harvesting the crop, at a rate of three tons per hour. Both round balers and stackers only required one or two men for 30 to 40 man-hours, to harvest the same amount. However, there was a difference in the har- vesting rates between the round balers and stackers. Round bales could be harvested at four to 12 tons perhour, while stacks were harvested at a rate of six to 15 tons per hour. Another important con- sideration in the efficiency of the various systems is the amount of crop lost through spoilage, says Mr. Murray. "Square bales stacked inside a barn, if baled at the correct moisturelevel, will not deteriorate appreciably. However, if they are stacked Nx!'4.0".:/'moi tiX J' ../"...1„�'l✓, 1..; ROLLE ” SKATING ZURIC ARENA EVERY WED. - 8 P.M. TO 11 P.M. FRIDAY - 8 P.M. TO 11 P,M. SAT. AFT. - 2 P.M. TO 4 P.M.

On the other hand, the untwined or rolled bales can have losses up to 100 percent if left outside because their low density allows the rain and snow. to penetrate right through," he says. Before you invest in a new harvesting system, Mr. Murray advises talking to other farmers. Before a .system is chosen, the whole harvesting operation should be carefully planned out from the field to the cow to ensure that it can be easily ac- commodated on your farm. Lutheran Picnic The Lutheran Church Women's picnic held Wednesday, July 7, at Mr. and Mrs. Keith Westlake's cottage, Westdalc, was very well attended.
