Farming was labor intensive from sunup to sundown with every member of the family pitching in to make sure there was enough food raised to feed everybody sitting at the dinner table. Once the crops were harvested, the taxes and the bills paid off, there might be enough money left-over to put some candy and oranges in the Christmas stockings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEven the townsfolk had large \"truck gardens\", which kept the children busied weeding before bicycling throughout the small towns, where everybody knew your name and your business.
