BACK IN THE DAY
It has been only one hundred years. A snippet of time in human history, but look how far we have come. These "Bauxite MIners" (c. 1912) in the Mojave Desert/Death Valley area of California symbolize how things were done before the advent of labor saving machinery. Hard work and the dangers involved were a fact of life.

The "Four Bottom Plow" (c. 1912) had to be pulled by a team of four horses. I happen to own such a plow and I can attest to its weight. The farmer is held in high regard earning the respect of fellow citizens as his dedication to hard work helped to feed the nation.
