Jim, I remember my mother would lock the doors & she, my siblings and I   hid 
behind the bed when hobos came around. We lived in town and the farm was at 
the edge of town.   My dad left very early to milk cows and then on to field 
work and milking again at evening.   Many times it would be dark before he came 
home.   We had no car but he had a pickup that was supplied by the farm 
owners.   Our family of 6 traveled in that pickup.
