You know......I think about a lot of things the old-timers did....and why they did it. Those folks relied on what worked and they knew lots of tricks from trial and error and so much of this basic knowledge has been lost or neglected as foolishness by the newer generations. Take cultivating crops for example. I like to cultivate my corn. Now if I had 100 acres or 3,000 acres...it wouldn't be too practical because of the labor/time involved and the fuel expense. BUT, I like the way cultivated crops grow and as much a benefit as chemicals have been to the farmer...I'd just as soon do with as few of them as I can. So, cultivating is 'old-time' method I like. Pumpkins in the corn is an excellent way to get a double crop too.....feed the punkins to the hogs or sell them for Halloween.
