[QUOTE="Ryder, post: 49355, member: 663"] Row binding corn was the hardest I ever did. This was done while the stalk and leaves were green and the weather hot. The row binder would cut stalks near the ground and tie them in a bundle and then we would haul them out and shock them up like a teepee. Someone (often me) had to walk behind the binder and catch them as they came off and throw them to the side out of the way of the next pass. It was too hot to wear long sleeves but that stuff would eat you up if you didn't. I took three squares and a bed for granted. Work was also taken for granted. There are some young folks today that are just as good as any have ever been. But I tend to get a little irritated at these young prima donnas today that have never worked anything but their mouth.
