I still see some here in north central Texas every year, but nothing like what it was in the 40s & 50s, where every little town had a gin. Don't even know where there is one now! The gin in our back yard, literally, was powered by a two cylinder Fairbanks-Morse diesel with piston over afoot in diameter, pretty much like this three cylinder on a generator in a nearby town. Gin started around late August & was still running & playing catch-up at Christmas in some years. There were at least a half dozen other gins within a 15-20 mile circle, too.
