Windmills generated power through out the farm. Not only the well pump, which when rigged right, also pumped power. The windmill lit up the barns as well as the farmhouse. Old landowners would say, "With that, the power companies can go on away. This gives me all the electric I need."

You can come to me with all your country boy questions.; 15 August, 2017 19:12
