- Automatic Pick-Up Baler, circa 1943 - This tractor-drawn baler changed the way farmers made hay. Before pick-up balers, farmers hauled hay to the stationary baler. This baler went to the hayfield where it picked up cured grass, pressed it into rectangular bales, and automatically tied the compressed grasses into a hay bale. Farmers could pick up and move these bales, and they had a higher market value as fresh hay.
