520 John Calvin Allen, professionally known as J.C., worked as
a photographer for Purdue University from 1909-1952, and
operated his own photography business until his death in
1976. The J.C. Allen photographs represent a historical
account of the transition from pioneer practices to
scientific methodologies in agriculture and rural
communities. During this major transitional period for
agriculture, tractors replaced horses, hybrid corn
supplanted open-pollinated corn, and soybeans changed from
a novelty crop to regular rotation on most farms. During
this time, purebred animals with better genetic pedigrees
replaced run-of-the-mill livestock, and systematic disease
prevention in cattle, swine, and poultry took place.
Allen's photographs also document clothing styles, home
furnishings, and the items people thought important as
they went about their daily lives. Looking closely at
tractors, livestock, wagons, planters, sprayers,
harvesting equipment, and crops gives one a sense of the
changing and fast-paced world of agriculture at that time.
This volume contains over 900 picturesque images, most
never-before-seen, of men, women, and children working on
the farm, which remain powerful reminders of life in rural
America at the turn of the twentieth century. As old
farmhouses and barns fall victim to age, Allen photographs
are all that remain. While those people and times no
longer exist today, they do remain "alive" because of the
preservation of that history on film. A camera in his
hands and an eye for photography allowed Allen to create
indelible visual histories that continue to tell the story
of agriculture and rural life from long ago.
