Throughout the years, the way people make a living has changed
dramatically, beginning with farming and agriculture, and ending
with the age of computers. This new postcard history showcases
images of the state at work in the first 25 years of the twentieth
century. Images show farmers in the rice fields, using horses and
steam tractors, and harvesting cotton, hay, and corn. Later cards
focus on the loggers who radically changed the landscape forever.
Merchants and bankers of business, including pharmacies, were
popular postcard fare as well; these establishments served the
farmers who traveled into town, especially on Saturdays when the
streets were filled with wagons, and later, cars.
