The Frontier, telling of a trip, in
the interest of The Frontier, he
made through the country north of

made us lonesome when we read it,
as none of the 28 farmers we inter
viewed on that trip are now living,
a few leaving for other fields, but
most of them sleeping in the ceme

change a half centyiy makes in the j
