Caption this picture #13

Thanks to everyone who sent in entertaining captions for the last photo! Check below to see everyone's comments--and don't forget to weigh in on the new photo.

The premise: IFAS and the University of Florida have long played a central role in the story of Florida and this nation's agricultural development. This saga has been documented in letters, art, research/government documents and photographs for more than a century.

Unfortunately, there are a few photographs from UF's agricultural golden years that come with little or no description...so, we thought we would just take a guess.

And, we encourage you to, as well.

Well, last time we offered a photo of a man cutting a cabbage in half with a band saw and a picture of a small, adorable child holding a hat full of baby chicks. Oddly enough, nearly all submitted jokes involved the latter. Take from that what you will.

Here's the last image and the responses.

"Colonel Sanders: The Early Years" --Robert Annis

"Little Johnny and his peeps."--Samantha Kennedy

"This is little Billy Smith enjoying a serving of chicklets!"--Pam Howell

"Little Billy's mother had no idea how bad lice could be until Billy took his hat off...."--Stu Hutson

Here's the next photo from the IFAS Historical Archives. We've decided to keep with the theme of kids posing with farm animals. If nothing comes to mind, don't worry. There is another bonus picture this week below the first image of a boy with a pig.
