I show the above mentioned States are
I making progress in just the other di-

■ Clearly, then, w« must attribute to
, our present homestead law no mean
place in the retrograde movement
M hy does (he homestead law work
In such ft manner when Its intent and
purpose is just the opposite?
This year illustrates very forcibly
itr t how it works. This year sees its
deadly work in dispossessing thou-
sands of honest and hardworking
farmers of their homes, which, under ‘
different laws, they would be able
to hold. This year adds mort ten-
ants to the constantly swelling rank*'
of tenantry than any two or three
years before.
| Thousands, even ten . of thousands,
oi iarmers in the drouth-stricken
counties of West Texas, with farm-
partly paid tor, with good equities in
them, not being able to borrow a dol-
lar on them with which to buy seed
and feed and meet living expenses
til] another crop is made, must leave
them and go elsewhere to make a
living They must sell at the great-
est sacrifice what they and their fam-
ilies havo worked years to acquire,
or they must abandon a valuable equi-
ty that in any other State could be
used ns security for a small loan to
carry them till another crop is made
and enable them eventually to get
tho home clear of debt and fairly well
improved.
Under the guise of protecting the
family in tho home we are todav.
through our antiquated homestead
law. compelling thousands,
of thousands, of good farmers
abandon their homes, a large
cent of them to swell the ranks of
inanent tenantry
