I have lot of trouble believing your story.. But, had you said “corn cobs”, I would have turned to my wife and said “I told you so”.

The practice may not have been widespread in the Middle West but it wasn’t zero either. The alternative was pages from a Sears catalog.

Barbed wire?

We would have cried with joy if we had barbed wire!

We had to use razor wire.

Razor wire dipped in acid.

You run out of corn cobs? Or were the ladies hoarding them?

I’ve gone ancient Roman and tied sea sponge to stick and dip it in a bucket of vinegar to clean myself. Those Romans knew what they were doing.
