How to conserve household gas. Use as little water as possible when cooking most vegetables. For in addition to conserving their vitamin content, this method decreases cooking time and uses less gas. The best way to cook many vegetables is to bring the water to a quick boil, then reduce the flame when the boiling has started. A high flame will not hasten the cooking. All that is necessary is to use a low blue flame sufficient to keep water boiling

Agricultural day laborer wiping the sweat from his neck after his return home from chopping cotton.This man had once been a tenant farmer and had quit farming because of repeated crop failures and inability to secure good farming land; he then became a day laborer, his entire family working with him in the fields. They chopped cotton, hoed corn, picked cotton, cut spinach and picked up potatoes. However, because they had this established tent home on the banks of the Arkansas River and because they worked in and around this neighborhood, they considered themselves a class above the migrant workers who came in to harvest the crops. This man had planted a small garden back of his tent not for the value of the garden since he said that the sun would get it before the vegetables were mature, but because it would prevent any of the migrant families from camping near them. He said, "Those migrants don't live the way we do, course they don't have anything to live with." Near Webbers Falls, Oklahoma
