Orson Clark-11/23/81 - Pg 21
War II? Or just before World War II?
Orson Clark: Yes, before.
Interviewer: That's what I though. The land had not been farmed for more than a generation had it?
Orson Clark: No.
Interviewer: You made a good living from grain and hay. Did you grow hay for your own cattle or did you just sell the hay?
Orson Clark: Both, for the cattle and for selling.
Interviewer: But milk was a good cash crop. That was steady wasn't it? It didn't fluctuate.
Orson Clark: Yes that was the thing.
Interviewer: What about potatoes?
Orson Clark: I raised potatoes two years. The first year I really made and the next year I couldn't sell a one.
