Our threshing crew in 1927. I am standing, on the wagon seat. This is the team and wagon that is shown in the picture below.
Hauling grain from the threshing machine. This is the first team of horses I owned. When I settled the partnership with Dad, in Sept. 1927, and went to College, he gave me $150.00 for team and harness.
This is a typical team and wagon used to husk corn in the 1920s and 1930s. One ear at a time, thrown against the BANG BOARDS. A good day's accomplishment would be one wagon filled in the morning and another in the afternoon.
