My dad died when I was five, two of my three older brothers did the farming until about 1960 and one took another job. I had some chores to do and as soon as I could steer a farmall M I drove on the baler with my brother loading the wagon, then raked hay and a little later did most of the mowing/conditioning and raking. Mowed hay for the neighbors now and then and got paid. Never really had an allowance but mom would give me a little money now/then and when I got a little older my brother would come across with some money when he sold hogs, don't remember how much but I had enough saved to pay for my first car, a year old red 64 Chevy Impala 2 door that I didn't drive much cause there was always work to do around the farm. I didn't mind plowing or disking most of the night but I hated doing chores, sorting hogs, didn't milk much but hated when I did. But I guess I got treated ok and the experience didn't hurt me.
