The bale band is of wire, having in one end an eye in which is received thimble-fashion a V-shaped saddle. After the band is put around the bale, the end is passed through the saddle. When strain is applied, the wire jams in the angle of the saddle, and at the same time the saddle being compressed in the eye, closes tightly upon the wire. Fig. 5 is an improved form of hay press constructed of steel. The loose hay is introduced as fast as a man can pitch it into a self-feeder, and, when tied, is emitted at the open end. The duty is claimed as 20 or 80 tons a day, according to power applied. In the Whitman hay-baling press, the plunger rebounds automatically after each operative stroke. The horse makes a tour to.
