ing as low as one cent and the
most one barely gets is three

Misery for Tenant Farmers
The tenant farmer is about the
worst off. For instance, during
the good times, many farmers
leased for as many as five years.
They were to pay rent either cash
or on the basis of giving one-half
the proceeds he made on the farm
from cream, livestock, ETC., and by
careful management was able to
do so.
But as the crisis became so
acute we find the tenant farmer is
panic striker as to what to do. he
is not able to pay the cash neces-
sary for rent. In this case hi:
cattle are mortgaged, that is he
can have only four cows that he
can have for himself, and . team
of horses, and just enough farm
implements to make a living. The
rest are taken away from him, anC
if for a certain short time he 4
able 10 pay some Of the mortgage
or rent he owes, then he is able
to remain on the farm.

But how can he pay anything
when all he has left is four cows
