Four men and 4 horses put up 12 tons (8 acres) per day. Yield, 1.50 tons per acre. Man-hours 2.50, 
team-hours 1.50 per ton. Labor cost, per ton, $0.80. 
Method 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.
