My mom tells me that broiler production is the production of biscuits that we get to eat, but I secretly think she is lying to me so I won’t worry. I only think this because other chickens on our farm have been running around screaming their heads off, and I for one know that if I was getting a biscuit I would be happy. Week three: Chickens are going psycho on the farm now! Apparently chickens have been hearing that we are an agribusiness farm and that we’re too small to use so we need to be fattened up. I’m only three weeks old and I way twice as much as the average chicken my age.
Dorothea Lange's "Migrant Mother" Photographs in the Farm Security Administration Collection: An Overview The photograph that has become known as "Migrant Mother" is one of a series of photographs that Dorothea Lange made of Florence Owens Thompson and her children in February or March of 1936 in Nipomo, California. Lange was concluding a month's trip photographing migratory farm labor around the state for what was then the Resettlement Administration. In 1960, Lange gave this account of the experience: I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet. I do not remember how I explained my presence or my camera to her, but I do remember she asked me no questions. I made five exposures, working closer and closer from the same direction.
Some people thought of me as a prankster and risk taker. At the age of five, I was stricken with polio but managed to make a full recovery, I still had a slight stutter but that was fine. My mother raised me as a single parent. I never knew my father; a private in the United States Army during World War II. My mother worked long 12 hours days so I made sure to cook, clean, and everything else so I could be as much of a help to her as possible, I even did the laundry.
At the grocery store, I bought things that my mother wanted. This time it was a pound and a half of ground beef and a pound of ground pork because my mother was going to mix them into a meat loaf. This was mine and my father's favorite dinner along with baked potatoes, green beans, and a tossed salad. We eat healthy in our house. Our breakfasts, lunches and dinners are all on the healthy side.
In the late 1930s her father developed disseminated lupus, an immunological disorder that causes the body to make antibodies against its own tissues, and the O’Connor’s moved to Milledgeville, which had been the home of the Cline family since before the civil war.

She entered Georgia State College for Women, in an accelerated three-year program, and graduated in June 1945 with a degree in Social Science.

we also grow soybeans for protein to feed the milking herd of bovines. they all have names(my mom makes sure they have their own special identities) we drink the fresh milk from the bulk tank, and have farm fresh beef to eat.

Martha Smith had her first child in 1922, followed by her second a year later. During this time she and her husband were renting farms and she learned how to set hens, raise chickens, feed pigs, milk cows, plant and harvest a garden, and can fruits and vegetables. These chores can be hard work, especially while caring for your children. She would of needed to get up really early to feed the animals and spent a lot of time canning fruits and vegetables depending on the amount harvested at that time. She would also carry water almost a quarter of a mile from the well to boil so she could do her laundry.
