Hay bale saws were a common agricultural tool. Ed Nolt, a Dutch resident of Pennsylvania, USA, invented the prototype for the small square baler back in the 1930s. His patent was purchased and mass produced during the 1940s. These balers quickly spread throughout the world and became a common agricultural machine. The hale bale saw was used to cut up the bales when distributing feed to livestock. As modern agricultural production has turned more to the use of large round bales, these small saws have become obsolete. This saw was used by a farmer in North Barnawatha approximately 18 kilometres from Wodonga, Victoria.This saw is representative of the agricultural tools in the mid to late 20th century.A metal saw with 2 wooden handles. The saw has a very coarse serrated edge. One of the handles is parallel to the blade, and the other handle is perpendicular to the blade.agricultural tools, hay bale saws, north east victoria

Over the summer of 1984/85 extensive regeneration work was carried out to establish the “Last Hoot”. It was a big job and took all summer to complete the work which included throwing rocks of the run, digging in cross drains and spreading the area with hay. All work was done manually. Though difficult physical work, those who dedicated their time and labour to the task have interesting memories of that time, including arriving to load up hay bales only to find the cattle from the high plains had walked across the dam wall to come and enjoy a fabulous feast! The Hoot Ski Trail has two sections. Fast Hoot is a 341 metre blue downhill run located near Falls Creek. The Last Hoot is a one km blue ski run (piste) trail which can be used in both directions. It finishes at Slalom Plaza in Falls Creek Village. Snowlands Lodge is near the bottom of the trail in Slalom Street. One of its most popular features is “The Last Hoot” Restaurant.This article is significant because it documents the work carried out to establish a popular ski trail at Falls Creek, VictoriaThis newspaper article reports on the work carried out to prepare for a new ski trail the "Last Hoot" at Falls Creek over the summer of 1984/85.In image L to R Debbie Howie, Larraine Boulton, Nina Frueauf, Rob McEwan, Eric Napierthe last hoot, deb howie

A hook as a hand tool is used for securing and moving loads. It consists of a round wooden handle with a strong metal hook projecting at a right angle from the centre of the handle. The appliance is held in a closed fist with the hook projecting between two fingers. This type of hook is used in many different industries, and has many different names. It may be called a box hook, cargo hook, loading hook, or a docker's hook, and a baling hook, bale hook, or hay hook in the agricultural industry. Other variants exist, such as in forestry, for moving logs, and a type with a long shaft, used by city workers to remove manhole covers. A hay hook is slightly different in design in that the shaft is typically longer. It is used on farms to secure and move bales of hay, which are otherwise awkward to pick up manually.

ACME Field Days are an expo event where exhibitors, particularly from the agricultural sector, can display and promote their products. In the early 2000s, Arthritis Victoria (AV) brought its Healthy Bones Bus to south west Victoria to spread the 'strong bones, healthy joints' message to regional areas. This initiative was made possible through a partnership with the Moyne Shire Council and Moyne Health Services. This photo depicts an Arthritis Victoria representative and an unidentified man staffing AV's Healthy Bones Bus information stall at an ACME Field Day.COL photo of two men standing behind a rectangular table in front of a large van. On it, there is a range of healthy food items such as cereals, various types of milk, cheeses, yoghurt, a plastic ice cream container, some canned food, and some fresh fruit. The van has a large door open on the side, displaying the text, "Osteoporosis Victoria 1800 011 041". Below the text, there is a display board with some posters on it. Hanging from the inside edge of the van door is a long vertical banner with the text and logo for the Moyne Shire. Behind the men, there is a large "Moyne Health Services" banner (partially obscured) attached to the ballustrade on the side of the van. In the background, there is a bale of hay on the grass, and two vehicle or trailer wheels are evident behind it.arthritis foundation of victoria, afv, osteoporosis victoria, ov, arthritis victoria, av, acme field day, healthy bones bus, outreach, education, information stall, healthy food, heathy diet, calcium, bone health, strong bones, south west victoria, moyne shire, moyne health services, sponsorship, partnership, c2000s
