Boy, things sure aren’t what they used to be. This picture was taken in 1915 of an eight-year-old boy driving a hay rake. Eight years old?! Looks pretty dangerous to me but that’s how things were back then. This photo comes to us courtesy of Shorpy, a website that features old-timey photos. Click on the image for the larger version.
