We used an IH pto corn binder with a bundle elevator to load flat wagons to haul to IH silo filler until 1950.Without the bundle loader. we made corn shocks to run thru a Rosenthal (Reedsburg WI Co) 4 roller shredder that chopped the stalks and blew them into barn overhead as well as cleaning the ears to crib. A flat belt ran the shreder as it did the early forage blowers with tip down hoppers for the rear unload wagons. The blower pipes that were pulled up to each silo by hand with rope and pulleys went from 6" for silo fillers to 9" for forage blowers. The reel type cut and throw forage choppers pulled easier but had trouble blowing sticky haylage. About 20 years ago a UW ag engineering grad student was testing an upside down cut and throw claiming it took less power and threw better. Have you noticed how the big self propelled choppers throw up into the corn processor rolls and then up to the accelerator (blower)?
