That the farm labor situation in

vividly brought to the attention of

She related how she and her hus-

to work their crops, m badly need-

She said she was frantic over
the situation, and so distressed was
she. that she wept as she related
her story and expressed fear that
the crops on their farm would go
to ruin for lack of help.

seriousness of the farm situation
in Cooke County, and, it might bo
said that the same condition pre-
vails in most every county in North
Texas, maybe farther, but here In
Denton County, the townfolks are

more, as quite a few of the ao-ea8-

able help on the farms. But here's
