IMHO the best hay baler ever made. They advertised that it would bale 10 bales a minute and it did. About $2400 new in 1950 something. Wisconsin V4 was known for vapor locking after hot shutdowns so we would park it under a shade tree at noon and just leave it idle. Added Valve Ease to the gas tank and used Pull More on the belts and always, always had a loaded fire extinguisher on board the tractor. I came up with a rough estimate of 450000 bales through the one we had due to custom baling in the neighborhood over about a 15 year period. It took turns being pulled around by a 1936 John Deere A and a '49 A, Oliver Super 88 and a WD Allis chalmers. The 10 bales a minute I mentioned was free dropping. Loading onto a pull behind wagon with the chute was somewhat slower. No small kicker bales. These were the big old 'squares'.
