Down on the Farm! 

This re-posting is number six in my series from the farm communities. 

On March 28, 2018 in Union Suit Fan, I featured Farmer Ben of Frewsburg, NY who had stripped down to his bright red union suit while standing, of all places, in the box of his Gehl Scaventer manure spreader. I suppose he didn't want his clothes to get all dirty and smelly. 

Ben's just another hard-working farmer doing what has to be done to keep the ole' home place jumping. Like the Farmer and his Scarecrow in my previous posting, I wonder if any of Ben's neighbors happened by to ask him what in the world he was doing outside working in just his "long red flannel winter underwear!"

Wouldn't you have liked to have seen him jump out of that contraption?  

Wonder what his boots looked like. Second thought, maybe not.
