Book 46: Todd: Hiram the Young Farmer

Burbank L. Todd: Hiram the Young Farmer or Making the Soil Pay. (1914)

I recently found this free ebook but I haven't read it completetly.

The main character is a 17 yo boy if I remember it correctly. 3 brief mentionings of bibs scenes. There are also younger boys and girls (maybe wearing bibs as well) but not mentioned. Also "pigtail pulling" and maybe other interesting stuff and farm setting.

I'm not sure about the time setting. I found "Hiram in the Middle West or a Young Farmers Upward Struggle" from the same author first published in 1920. Probably a sequel in the Back to the Soil series. So set in the 1910s (or maybe earlier if this are childhood memories.)

Completetly available on (without the 5 illustrations)
