EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard captures the essence of early 20th-century agriculture in Kansas. The image showcases a vast expanse of land, stretching as far as the eye can see, covered with 10,000 acres of sugar beets. The scene is bustling with activity, as farmers and agricultural workers tend to the crops. The men and women depicted in the photo wear weathered expressions on their faces, evidence of their hard work and dedication to cultivating this valuable crop. Despite the challenges they face, there is a sense of pride and contentment visible in their smiles. The landscape itself is picturesque - rolling hills dotted with rows upon rows of vibrant green beet plants. In the distance, an irrigation ditch brings life-giving water to nourish these crops. This scene exemplifies both the beauty and productivity found in rural Kansas. As we admire this snapshot from history, it serves as a reminder of our agricultural roots and how essential farming has been throughout North America's development. It also highlights the importance of sugar beets as a vital food source during this time period. Preserved by Fred Harvey's Detroit Publishing Company, this color print offers us a glimpse into an era when commercial art and graphic design were still evolving forms. Now housed at Lake County Museum for all to appreciate its historical significance, this postcard stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance in harnessing nature's bounty for sustenance and progress.
