This picture shows how difficult and backbreaking farming used to be. In this picture you see rows of vegetables that seem to go on forever and you realize that this group of men has been working all day picking every single one of those plants with their bare hands. There are no helpful tools or machines used just pure manual labor. In addition, you can see how dry the ground is. It must have been very hot with little available water. Maybe constant, hard work is one of the reasons that caused many of the problems during this time period. I predict that in To Kill A Mockingbird, we will learn how hard this work really was.
