has the following to say:
"In order to build up the agricul-
tural interests of the state oE-9kla-
homa. a better understanding must
exist between the landlord and the
tenant. The buildings are often un-
fit for human habitation, hardly fit
for horses l believe that The land
lord should prepare a comfortable
house for the tenant family. a stable
for his work stock and a granary
large enough to accommodate feed
for the stock and seed for the next
years planting.
"a little money invested in a few
rolls of wire for the purpose of fenc-
ing in a small pasture, would make
it an easier matter for the farmer TO
raise his own meat, with possibly
some to sell. Material for a small
hen house would induce the raising
of poultry for the use of the tenant
family and the housewife might real
ize comfortable income from the
surplus. Pastures should be provided
for the work stock and for a good
cow or two. An acre to an acre and
a half Of good garden. enclosed by a

etables for the family table and also
