By the forward movement of the horse attached to the halyard, the fork-pulley J/ rises and engages the carrier A, when the latter grasps its registering-head, unlatches and moves freely along the track H until the attendant jerks his trip-rope jS\ when the load is discharged and the carrier returned to its original place by the operation of the counter-weight E, where it automatically locks. In locking, it frees the fork-pulley, so that the attendant can draw the pulley down with his trip-rope for a fresh charge of hay. The track may be prolonged as a davit outside the building, aiul the charges of hay introduced through an end-door at the gable. The Acme Hay-Gatherer and Hay-Raker (Fig. 10) areused in concert. With two of the gatherers or sweeps, and oneof the rickers, the crop from 12 or 15 acres is stacked in aday by 4 persons and 5 horses.
