makes round bales non-stop
Now you can make round bales without stopping
field travel with the new No. 10 Model ROTO
BALER.
Livestock prefer round bales because more leaves
arc saved by wrap-up action. Outside layer protects
feed value of inside hay. Bales shed rain like a
lolled roof.
NOW THERE ARE TWO ROrO-BAWRS
Both ROTO-BALERS give you leaf-saying, power
saving advantages of roll-up compression. Try the
new, fully automatic, non-stop ROTO BALER...
or the standard model ROTO-BALER for big
capacitv baling at lowest price.
