Farmers in Indiana rallied against the measure when it was promulgated by the Federal Government in 1918. Their influence against the measure carried the day when the vote came before the Indiana state legislature. Although perhaps anecdotal, the cited reason behind the farmers vehemence focused on the fact that they had to rise before dawn regardless of the season, and saw the measure as pandering to "sleepy heads who never bothered to milk a cow."
