Van Steenbergh Hay Press

I believe this picture of the Van Steenbergh property (Historical Atlas of Ford County Illinois, 1884) shows the Hay Press. This was just down the road from Joe Rock's across the tracks and 54. Looks like a big operation at the time. The RR tracks have a side track at the operation and scales, from the 1884 plat of Lyman Township.
