When we built new(for the second time!) almost 20 years ago(I can't believe that either) we wanted to go underground. But being limited for money, we compromised. Our house(some would call it a basement) is one story with three sides covered with dirt. It is built into a hill side, long and narrow, with all rooms(except for bath and utility) having one large, almost walk through window, on the open wall. Unfortunately our location didn't allow us to face it strategically. We keep it 75 deg.F. When the wife is cooking the furnace doesn't run. For how cold some can put up with, I have said you could heat it with candles. The surprise was, without a basement for the large chest freezer, that's now in the large kitchen, along with the refrigerator. With no cross-ventilation we had to install a room AC in the kitchen to keep it from getting VERY hot. We dry corn with propane- (1000 gal. tank.) When I'm done in the fall I have the tank topped off. It heats the shop, the house, the water ,and runs the stove all winter. We have never run out. I am pleased with that performance.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
