Horse and Hay Wagon
Submitted by katief on Fri, 11/16/2007 - 13:23.
This picture was taken in 1920 of a horse pulling a wagon of hay. There was quite a lot of work to do while hauling hay. You had to throw the hay up on the wagon, and someone was always up top to pack it down. A lot of hay went on the wagon. The man who drove the wagon was usually a farmer.
The horse in the picture is a Clydesdale. As you can see, the horse has a stripe on its forehead.
A blacksmith made many of the parts on the wagon, like the wheels.
