Here some of the men are seen weeding the second crop of beets. On the truck, in the background, may be seen sections of pipe used in the modern system of irrigation. The buildings in the distance are living quarters built by the Hellwigs for the use of their employees. Photographer: Mace, Charles E. Gumbo, Missouri.
