Metuop 12. 
This method is used on a farm growing 25 acres of hay. Only 
one man works in the forenoon—from 11 to 12 o’clock—raking. 
The hay is cut late in the afternoon, and the crew hauling from field 
work from 12.30 until 7 p. m., getting in 7.5 tons, which is below 
the average for such a crew. A long haul to barn or a slow working 
crew must account for the fact that so little hay is hauled in in 6.5 
hours. 
Work Cuart 12.— Timothy and clover loaded with loader; unloaded with horse fork (New 
Jersey).
