Actually, I was told the same by my mother and father back in the early ‘50’s. I was born in the ‘40’s.

I don't think cows and crops care what time it is or if we mere mortals fiddle with our clocks...... Spring ahead if you must..... Jim

Does a farmer really care whether he gets up at 4am or 5am? Probably not. He gets up an hour or so before it gets light, so he can grab some grub, then make sure the equipment for the day is ready to go. Depending on what is on the day's joblist, the equipment is likely to have enough lights on it to simulate a very localized 'daylight', so it really doesn't matter what the clock says.

I have always heard that to a farmer, there is no such time as "bright and early".
If it's 'bright', it's certainly not early. If it's 'early', it dang sure isn't bright.

For me, I don't care if we stick with standard time or daylight saving time. Just STOP CHANGING. :cus:

I enjoyed this one. Sometimes people have time issues and they are great, but most times they make no sense.

We will let this time thing go at this time. ....
