Description: Line of corn husking wagons on Fairview Farm near Odebolt, Iowa. The corn was picked by hand; the wagons were pulled by mules. A good husker according to Neufeld, picked 100 bushels a day. Since he was unfamiliar with the task, Neufeld was less proficient than some. Sometimes the biggest problem was controlling the mules. Neufeld cited the case of Peter Penner, who, losing his temper at the mules, incited them to take off without him- unfortunately the reins hooked onto his pants and he lost them (his pants) too.

Description: COs at Fort Riley who were of Low German background. This snapshot is revealing with respect to the issue of wearing a uniform. Though most of the men are wearing a military uniform, five of the men in the back row are dresses in civilian clothes, according to Henry Gaede, because they refused to wear the uniform. The ambivalence about whether or not to wear a uniform was typical of the Mennonite response to almost every aspect of WWI.
