These pictures were taken about 4 miles south of Cynthiana..I would say there is 75 to 100 acres in this one field..You used to see it on every farm but now not as much grown here..The sticks are just plain old tobacco sticks that you hank across the t-rails..so many people quit raising tobacco that sticks are dirt cheap now .lots of people will give them away to get them out of their barns. Last crop I raised was in 1971..I am now 65 years old..cutting and housing tobacco was hard work back then and still is...I still have my tobacco knife and speer and my fathers also..they was both just alike...a good cutter good cut 2000 to 25oo a day back in my time..
