Family operation

Six-year-old Terry Quint halts his tractor for a moment during the 1950 potato harvest on the Quint Brothers Farm in Hodgdon. The youngster Quint handles the tractor with ease while his father Shirley, center, rides along on the digger. Three generations of the Quint family are represented in the photograph as great-grandfather George Quint, 82, still picked potatoes energetically at the time.
