The pains were so
bad that I used to
sit right down on the
floor and cry be
cause it hurt me so
and I could not do
any work at those
times. An old wo
man advised me to try Lydia E. Pink

bottle. I felt better the next month so
I took three more bottles of it and got
well so I could work all the time. I

KANSAS WOMAN WHO IS QUEST
AT THE D. A. B, CONFERENCE.
CONTROL TRESS AND CHURCH
DALLAS. Tex., March 18. rat
Nagle of Kingfisher, Okl.. editor of
the Tenant Farmer, testifying today
at the hearing on American labor
conditions by the federal commission
on Industrial relations, said:
"In eastern Oklahoma, formerly
Indian territory, about two-thirds of
the farmers axe renters. In western
Oklahoma, formerly Oklahoma terri
tory, one-third are renters and two
thirds own their land, yotal renters
ir Oklahoma now are 104.000. Of
95,000 farmers owning their land 80
per cent are mortgaged."
Mr. N'agle described what tan said were
typical "cnrtltlona In the state as shown
In one Oklahoma county of 8,0i farmers,
one-third of whom were renters. Of the
2,00 Twnlns: farms, he said, SO per cent
were mcrtgnRed. He did not gtv the
county's name, hut said:
Interlocking- rarasttee.
"In this county is, a county scat and
two electrto light towns. In these electrlo
light towns are grouped approximately
100 parasites of the first degree.. These
parasites are Interlocked. If the bank
that exploited the farmer through usury
should decry the graft of the rrolnmen
what would happen? The grain man
would charge ifcury, withdraw his de
posits from the bank and report the
matter to the State Grain Dealers' .as
sociation and this committee would take
the matter up with the bank's corre
spandents In Kansas City, Chicago, New
York and the bank would be refused ac
commodations. Mr. Nagle salf that mills, elevators and
other business Interests In small towns
such as he described all helped .more Or
lees to exploit farmers. Me added:
- , Control Prea aad Chareh.
"The parasites or the first degree are
virtually autocrats tn their little king
dom. They control the press. The news
papers In electrlo towns are careful not
to publish anything that might enlighten
the farmer as to the Inner workings of
those Interlocked groups. They control
the church. They distribute themselves
among various churches of the community
and If the minister should denounce their
methods they would withhold their sup
port and Influence and, he soon would be
relieved of his charge."
To this system of alleged control by
commercial Intorests of small towns, Mr.
Nagle charged, -was due the fact that 80
per cent of the farms of the country
were mortgaged. Most of the other farm
ers, he said, escaped mortgages by mak
ing extra money through slde-Une ac
tivities In addition to farming. -What
Force Means.
Alleged demands of land, owners for
children to work on southwestern tenant
farms were described by Nagle. He said:
"The word 'force' when referring to
Oklahoma farm lands, does not' mean a
bowle knife or a pistol, but a battory of
children with a woman at their head.'
Mj. Nagle then read- Into the record
two, letters from a land owner residing
near Mclln county, OkL, advising that
the tenant To go on one of his farms
must have plenty of "force." He also
testified to an eviction of an Oklahoma
tenant who was put off the land because
he had no children. This farmer was old,
Nagle said, and 4 youna" rarmer with "a
force and a young wife" had offered to
take the farm. If given Immediate pos
session.
Mr. Nagle offered to give the commis
sion privately the name of the town.
where, he said, this eviction was put
through by a town court.
