Your article brings back memories and you described it well.

I would really hate all the farms to go and be replaced with houses!! A lot of the farmers round here do other things now at the farms, farm shops, adventure centres, pets corners and many more!

Automization and computerization replaced manpower of course. Imagine, a single horse could be replaced by a thousand horses nowadays and you couldn't bother about grass to feed them but high octane fuel. Someday synthetic farming will be provided to prolong our species. Consider a tablet a day to nourish every human being. Boy that's a big relief in getting back and forth out of the toilet.

My parents had a farm for awhile and we raised pigs. I loved living on that farm. My grandparents had a cattle ranch and kept a horse for me. While my grandparents were the only owner of their ranch you are correct most farms now are a large family business. I guess our children will have to play at farming on Farmville.

I have one brother in law now, who raises cattle as a side line and grows hay to feed them. I see a field of corn ocassionally and no cotton in years. As you point out nobody can afford to farm. Misty I remember the wood stoves and they didn't have a gage. Not the ones I knew. You managed the heat with the kind of wood and the size of the fire in the fire box. You used dry wood for a hot fire and slowed it down by putting in a stick of green wood. Women learned to time it perfectly.
