[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1624903, member: 1682"] Completely different world. Horsepower, no access to credit, large families, meager existence even before the depression, local consumption, no commercial fertilizer, no pesticides/herbicides, minimal fuel usage, no vaccines, no antibiotics, no real veterinary care. And the basic understanding that a farm life was quaint and simple survival was all that mattered. This farm prospered using unemployed men for work in exchange for room and board. Lots of men cutting and burning to clear land all summer long for two decades in the 30's and 40's. Nowadays we have welfare and unemployment insurance, so that goes out the window. [/QUOTE]
