Tom and Linda Tranthum - Pelzer, SC

There was no way I could see making it. I had fought the drought, the army worms and the low prices...I was unable to finance to borrow the money to buy the fertilizer, and the chemicals and the seed I needed for the next crop. I felt like I had just come to an end, but for some reason the cows - I put them over to a pasture that I thought was a good pasture. The cows laid down in it and didn't eat...I was so aggravated that I just threw down the gate and said "Do whatever you want to do." And they did. They all went somewhere else, but they all started eating.
