Subject: Farming the Hard Way


SW “Ohia”

This video is from 1940, giving a comparison of farming the hard way, without electricity, and the benefits/process of forming a rural power cooperative. There are quite a few videos with this theme from that era. (Belmont Electric Cooperative has since merged into South Central Power Coop here in Ohio.)

Every one of those guys is skinny. I suspect carrying stock water from the well pump and cutting stovewood every day contributed to that…
