Very interesting article from 1920.
Reminded me so much of my Great Grandfather. Grew seven crops per year, in case a few failed. Raised chickens, hogs, and cattle. Had numerous orchards. When he died in 1982, his daily driver was still a 1940 Dodge dually. May have left his hometown once or twice in his life- he had a farm to take care of. When he died, he had zero debt, as he had zero debt his entire life. He was able to keep the farm through the depression.
