Paul, Thanks for the explanation of baling at night.. We had always baled the small square bales in the afternoon when the moisture content was at its lowest.. If the hay was too wet it would mold in the barn. Even A few barns were lost to a spontaneous combustion fire from the mold..

Yessir, we put some hay in the barn when I was a kid that was a bit too green. You could actually see steam coming out of the barn. I guess it was steam and not smoke anyway, but I'm not sure. We unstacked all of it and put tobacco sticks in between all the bales so air could get to it and it eventually dried. We had plenty of tobacco sticks because we raised dark tobacco too.

Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

The Shakers (You'll have to look them up) had a different way of putting their hay away. Built in 1826 for loose hay but a very efficient operation in everything they did.  l remember a Shaker meeting house being moved with B models from Shirley Ma to Hancock Ma. They moved it in 1962.    .....Hippy
