Abstract

In Little Rock they told me Louis Sougey had cleared $2200 from a 30-acre com and cotton farm last year. I was skeptical and went over to the office of our old friend, A. D. McNair, now with the bureau of plant industry, division of farm management investigations for the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
