I went to school about right in the middle of KS. 16 kids in elementary and 100 in graduating class from the nearby "big" school.
I can think of three schoolmates who are BTO and have no time for any other jobs off the farm or on the road, and several who work for those or other BTO and will do whatever they have to to make ends meet when there is no farm work to do.
