EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1945, where we find ourselves in the picturesque Newton Farm in Hereford. The scene depicts a crucial moment during the harvest season - baling hay. The hardworking farmers are utilizing state-of-the-art machinery to efficiently gather and package this essential crop. In the foreground, a Ruston baler is seen diligently at work, skillfully compressing bundles of hay into neat rectangular bales. This impressive piece of equipment showcases the advancements made in agricultural technology during that era. Assisting the baler is an Allis Chalmers "U" tractor, effortlessly pulling a trailer filled with freshly harvested hay towards it. The idyllic countryside setting adds charm to this snapshot from history. Rolling fields stretch out as far as the eye can see, bathed in warm sunlight that casts long shadows across the land. It's evident that these dedicated farmers have put their hearts and souls into cultivating these fertile grounds. Preserved within West Sussex County Council's George Garland Collection, this photograph serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and unwavering dedication to feeding our communities through agriculture. It reminds us of how vital farming has always been for sustenance and survival. As we admire this image captured over seven decades ago, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also recognize the immense efforts undertaken by generations past who worked tirelessly on farms like Newton Farm to ensure food security for all.
