AbstractMSBR/ Maine Potato Harvest; Houlton sees two kinds of farming; "It is not the end of the earth, but you can see it from here"; two farms are compared: one very mechanized, the other is much by hand; Scott and Randy have been working the family farm with the help of other family members and large, heavy equipment; school is closed for three weeks each autumn so that potatoes are picked; wholesalers determine the value of the crop; most young people who are now living in Aroostook County do not see farming as their future;
