A Living -- The Hard Way. Here, on the farm of H.A. Schneider near Boise City, Okla., in the heart of the "Black Blizzard '' country which created a dust bowl of x once green acres, this man and his wife fight the soil for a living as they wait for the year that will produce a crop. Schneider said, "I'm down to the bottom of my sock. If we don't get a crop." His wife, working with him, said she supports him with her chickens, garden and a cow. She added, jokingly, that men folk got lazy raising what since it requires only three months work a year, and that "raising row crops is work".
