Someone needs to send this to the Dept. of Agriculture in DC. Just so they can remember. And to Mr. President too. Especially when I read that they are trying to pass a law against child labor on the farm now. Go figure.

Love it! I wonder what the D of A and the President would say about that? Or how they'd try to say it doesn't make sense anymore?
Laws against child labor on the farm? Don't tell my kids!

This is great. We love our girls. When I started working less I offered that they could be my chore instead of his every morning. He couldn't let me. Turns out he loves them too. He didn't want to give up spending time with them. They are quite helpful with my families food and eat up as much scraps as we will give them.

That's great,I love those old victory garden posters and this kind of thing,back then people were'nt so far removed from the farm so having "hens in the hood" wasn't just for back to the landers,sure wish they would still promote backyard chickenkeeping with as much zeal as they take in zoning them out nowadays!
I've been reading up on that child farm labor law,that's a real folly,seems like nowadays people think kids can do nothing else but sit in front of videogames and get morbidly obese,develop childhood diabetes and now that will be the government endorsed model of safe childrearing,I about fell off my chair when I first heard about that one.
They say that chiildren will still be allowed to work so many hours on thier family farm but can't work on other people's places,well,when I was growing up I remember we would work exchange in groups where we would go and do Spring and Fall cattle work and whatever needed to be done on an outfit and then trailer our horses on to the next place and work thier cattle and so on so now kids participating in that kind of ranch and other farm work would now be unlawful,what a shame,I guess if we could label it is "recreational horseback riding" it might be okay,I don't know.
I just shake my head at this stuff anymore.
