CUSTAR, OH - OCTOBER 31: Vern Panning, 70, strains while loosing a door to dump corn into an elevator October 31, 2005, at The Deshler Farmers Elevator Company's Custar elevator located in Custar, Ohio. Late fall is one of the busiest times of the year for grain elevator workers when corn and soybeans start to pile up waiting to be held in elevators where it will be dried and taken away by rail. The Custar elevator holds about two million bushels of grain and another half a million is stored outside until they can make room to store it in the elevators. (Photo by J.D. Pooley/Getty Images)
