Notes
Martha Arriola reminisces about butchering, gardening, canning, and feeding the household and ranch workers throughout the year on the 96 Ranch.
Arriola's account of gardening, butchering, and canning on the ranch indicates the importance of home food production in an earlier day. Her account also relates how she and her employer, Edith Stewart, used to carry meals to the men in the fields. On these trips, they applied flour to their faces and arms to protect against the sun; in that day, suntans were not considered becoming.
