Large Capacity and Small Cost of Operation Makes Baling Hay with a Dain Press Profitable Work The Dain Self -Feed Horse Press can be operated with fewer hands than other presses, because it is a Pull Power machine. The bales are delivered in front so the press can be placed at the center of the stack. This location is the most convenient point to pitch the hay to and easily saves work of at least one man. Delivery of bales in front keeps them out of dirt and chaff of pitching. Pull power means no pitman, no obstruction for the tram to step over. Compound leverage for the horses insures light, uniform draft. The self-feed is positive in its operation and saves one-half the labor of feeding. The Dain is the only self-feed pull power press on the market, and combines into one machine all the advantages of proven and genuine merit that go to make a hay press profitable to operate. The Dain Belt Power Press shown above has an automatic hopper that opens out, giving a space 30 inches square into which to pitch the hay. Thi3 large feed opening in connection with the heavy powerful gears, insures fast work and compact bales. A noteworthy feature of all Dain presses is the neat, rmooth bales they make, a result of the special pat ented hay folder or tucker. The divider boards are inserted mechanically by throwing a lever located conveniently to the operator. Friction clutch and stop brake give perfect control at all times. Dain Presses ae simple in construction, strong and durabK They are built for fast work, and givo universal satisfaction. Somebody is going to get one of these Balers and do custom work. Here's your chance we can tell you where you can get baling enough to keep you busy. Gilbert Implement Company "The Store with a Conscience" BRIEF NEWS OF OREGON I O.-W.
