It requires 50 per cent, less driving power. 4th. It turns out the best shaped bale for hand ling or rolling. . sth. The Press will last a life-time, <he work ing parts being built of the best of iron, and not liable to get out of order. The ordinary work of this machine will press m one operation fafter once filling the box of t;he No. 1 Press) a bale of Hay of 450 lbs. weight in UiT*Two Minutes.
