I am reminded of my Grandfather, who was born in 1880, talking abut the
kitchen garden. It was just outside the kitchen door and in those days of
no indoor plumbing, dishwater was just thrown on the garden. With poultry
running loose, insects were devoured before they could get much headway and
a sprinkling of dust from the tobacco barn floor took care of the rest.
Free running dogs kept the critters away. Isn't it amazing how things come
around?
