Fig. 7.— A well-built stack of western hay. Stacks like this lose a very small percentage oi hay from 
damage by sun or rain. 
Fig. 8. — A group of well-built western stacks. Stacking such a large amount of hay in one place makes 
the cost of making hay very much greater than when the stacks are distributed over the field. 
Fig. 9.— The push rake in operation. Horses do all of the labor of lifting the hay. From 600 to over 1,000 
pounds of hay can be hauled per load. The skill of the driver and team are important factors in 
the efficient use of the push rake.
