When I went to Washington State U in 1966, it was the custom among eastern Washington wheat farmers to buy their kid a new muscle car when he went to college. One of my frat brothers had some "indiscretions" while in high school, such that his insurance man had a list of cars he couldn't have. So Terry got the list, and went around the dealers to find the hottest car that was not on the list. He ended up with a Dart Swinger, similar to the third to the last picture. It had a 340 4 barrel engine, and could keep up with the GTO's, 442's and 396 Chevelles. We have a reunion every year, and Terry is still a little wild and crazy, but less so since he got leukemia and almost died. They did a complete blood transfusion with his daughter, and that fixed it. We all give daughter a little hug when we have our annual reunion, cause it just wouldn't be the same without TJ.
Unfortunately, I was not among the chosen ones that got new cars given by their dads. Mine was a '57 Pontiac, bought with my own money, for 175 bucks off the back row at the Pontiac dealer in Olympia. I always wanted to be rich, but just couldn't afford it.

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
