Take the hassle out of feeding large round bales with the Agway Chamless Bale
Feeder. Its chamless operation provides safer, more consistent operation,
keeping the bale in control. The BFSOOO also reduces spoilage caused by bales
sitting outside in bulky inefficient stationary units. The Agway Chamless Bale
Feeder works as well in the barn as it does m the field, allowing you more
freedom to decide when and where to feed
your livestock. Talk to your local authorized /7\
Agway dealer for purchase details. Z—u manufactuking «
