Horse Hay Forks and Slackers.

(From the N.Z. Farmer.)

fpffilSWlissue,'in reply to a correspondent asking -for information with reference Jfo. tbfe Mise hajf-fOrk and derrick mentioned by ilr W. E. Ivey in his remarks published ia the October number of The Farmer, the hay-3weep, of which we re- Ceptly gayfl {in illustration and description, we promised this month to give engravings

of the implements in question. We now redeem that promise, feeling sure that a gregt saving, of labour in haymaking opera ' tiohs wpnld be effected by the use of these other mechanical contrivances mjsovp found favour with the shrewd Jmm. farmer. The illustrations are (Sipied from the useful work we have previously .referred to, Farm Implements fiiflfffl Mashinery. by J. J» Thomas.

-I'itebing hay from a waggon or cart is, as lafarmere know, very laborious work, Woich, by the ÜB e of the horse hay-fork, is much greater expedition in fiPfjjMii hay secure from the injurious h jatotß of wet weather is attained. Thomas 'wy* the effective force of a horse is at 3?* ye times as great as that of a strong JW\ J and if half an hour is usually him to' unload a ton of hay, minutes wpuld be necessary ipacfcompligh the same result with horse f* Actual experiment very nearly this estimate. tpaese horse pitch-forks were first used hay from wagons and placing rS*«i* cover iti lofts. lii using them for "{■« pwpbse a rope is passed through a •Pc? bjock attached to a rafter about two M Mthihthe outer edge of the door or PPSh the loft through which the hay '"fended to be taken in. The rope then Ww do W n to'the'bottom of the building

8% a ? 4 through another puljev block enTi-s«' and a hoj-ge is attached to the Efe ?° fch e other end is attached the '"v-W Which when loaded with h*y f 3

drawn up to the required height by simply making the horse walk in a direction away I from the building. Palmer's Fork, referred jto and recommended in our last issue, is a | great improvement upon the first cotjtri i vance of this kind brought into use in the i States. It is represented in figure 1, the i right hand cut showing its position when ascending loaded with hay, the left hand showing it with the Unee-joint brace con tracted, by a jerk of the cord fastened to it j for that purpose, thus emptying the load i This fork, from the shortness of the handle, jis specially adapted for pitching under ' roofs. Mr Ivey also recommends Biardchy's Hay Elevator, shown in figure 2. This im plement is called by Thomas a double fork which clasps the load of bay like the claws of a bird. This class of fork is better adoptei, he says, to pitching short straw, especially those which, like Raymond's, have several teeth., but more time is required for thrusting in two forks than one. This writer points out that in using these forks the work is much facilitated by pro viding a board slide to be placed vertically against the face of the building, on which the forkful of hay moves upward as the horse pulls on to the hauling rope. "In S itching into a window the bottom of this oard slide should be placed out a few feet

from the building, and the top should rest on the base of the window." Whenever possible, of course, the tail end of the wagon or cart should be placed towards the window. Hay may be thus easily pitched to any height desired, a point which con stitutes a great advantage in favour of the horse-fork as against hand pitching. Palmer's Hay Stacker is represented in figure 3. We are told it is largely used in the Western States of America, where large quantities of hay are stacked out of doors. This is the dorrick previously re ferred to. : " The advantages of this con trivance are thus described by Thomas :— " It first elevates the hay, and then swings it around over the stack, dropping it where desired. It does not drag the hay against the side of the stack, requires no staking down to prevent tipping, and is easily drawn on the sills as runners, tc.any mtt of the farm- The horizontal motion of the crane is effected as follows :-Two ropes are attached to the whiffle tree, one, a strong one, to elevate the hay, funping on S puheys at B,C, andD see cut,; and the other, asmaSer one, passing the swivel pulley at A, on the end of the lever B, extending from the foot ot the upright shaft. This cord then passes up and oyer a pulley above the weight E. • The weightisaboutfour Sounds, and is attached to tlie end--* the Ser cord. At tl?e same tw* that the horVe? in drawing, elevates the fork with Sad of bay, the weight E is raised until tstrik'es'the pulley, when the power ot the horse becomes applied to the epd of the W over the stack- 4s the horse backs, the weight drops again to thegrpund, taking nntheslackrope from under the horse's feet, the fork causes theargi of £ derrick to revolve back over the lOad. The intended height for raising the hay, be fo rlgulatedbylengtheningor SStSinglSriiaTler cord, as the arm will no? «i6,e,until JA» •!«** strips tlje pSley under the head block.'

We see no reason why these implements and appliances should, not be made in this country, or if thoy wero asked for by farmers of the hardware merchants thoy would no doubt coon be pro cured from America. Tiie derrick, it seems to us, could eisily be constructed by any fairly ingenious man, on his pwn farm ; and there could not be a more in structive occupation fpr farmers' eons than the making and perhaps devising improve ments upon these laboip'-saving mechanical contrivances. Would that our State schools might devote more attention to the instruction of children in practical mechanics ! As a means of making useful and self-reliant colonists such teaching would leave other subjects of our school curriculum (such as " analysis of simple and complex sentences ") nowhere.
