WHETHER you feed or sell your hay, it should be baled. Baled hay 

 takes up much less room and nets a better price than loose hay. 

 It is always ready for any market at top price, while loose hay must 

 be sold near home, at whatever price you can get. 



I H C Hay Presses " 



have many points of strength, simplicity, and convenience found in no other 

 presses. They are equipped with a compound lever and a toggle joint 

 plunger, which gives them their great compressing power. A 500 pound 

 pull on the sweep of a 16x18 I H C press gives 76,800 pounds pressure in 

 the bale chamber. 



The bed reach is only about 4 inches high and very narrow. The bale 

 chamber is very low easy to reach over to tie the bale. 



I H C Hay Presses are operated by horse power or gasoline engine. The 

 one-horse press has 14xl8-in. bale chamber; the two-horse press has 14x]8-in., 

 16xl8-in., or 17x22-in. bale chamber. The International Motor Baling Press 

 is furnished with 14xl8-in., 16xl8-in., or 17x22-in. bale chamber and 3, 4, ore- 

 horse power I H C gasoline engine. 



If you examine an 1 H C hay press you will appreciate its value as a 

 money saver and money maker. 



Call on the I H C local dealer for catalogue and full particulars, or, if 

 you prefer, write nearest branch house.
