Do I ever remember the old days of harvesting Sugar beets. My father had one of the very first beet harvesters in Mid Mich, (Scott viner), and it was still "WORK" Yes, those old IH harvesters were a work of art, but they did make beet growing a lot less labor intensive. I remember as a young lad, that during WWII, because of the shortage of mexican labor, we used German prisoners of war that were posted in a camp 5 miles away. I can tell you that there was never a risk of escape or using a hoe or beet knife for a weapon. Working in the fields was a far greater fate than fighting on the eastern front. My contribution was to ride with my father and "test" the doughnuts that the Salvation Army and other organizations provided at various intervals along the way as loaded trucks waited for hours and miles to unload at the factory.
