One other thing: Most of us with cars always had a rifle in the window rack, usually a .22. Back then the local scrap yard bought gopher tails for 2 cents each. And that part of north central Montana had jillions of gophers. That gave us all a little bit of spending money.
And there was a tavern in a small village just outside of town that would sell a sack of beer, (this was before six-packs), usually Old Style lager, out the back door to anyone of us for 85 cents for 8 bottles. Remember, this was in the early 50s. The only ones who complained about it were usually our mothers.

Scottie - great stories. I can just barely remember beer for 99 cents, but that was for a six pack of Falstaff...
