[A Photographer Takes a Man's Picture]
Photograph of a photographer taking the picture of a man. The photographer stands at left with his view camera placed on a tripod. He holds out a round object, possibly a lens cap, with his right hand, a fancy cuff over his white long-sleeved shirt on his wrist. Under his leather vest is a light-colored cloth in the back pocket of his trousers. On his camera is a black cloth. The man at right wears a round hat, a coat, and a scarf with a pilgrim-like figure on it. He rests an umbrella over his shoulder (obscured by his head), and holds a briefcase, possibly a film satchel, with illegible writing on its exterior. Both men stand on a rug in front of a painted background.

[Lamar County Courthouse in Paris, TX]
Photograph of Lamar County Courthouse in Paris, TX. An intersection of dark paved roads occupies the bottom of the photo while a white car parks at the curb of a sidewalk running along the far side of the roads and around the edge of the courthouse. To the left of the sidewalk's corner is a yellow and red fire hydrant while to the right is a sign pointing to the right along with the text "One way". A person walks up the right half of the sidewalk towards the "One way" sign. The courthouse's yellow lawn is enclosed by a curb and is planted with short green bushes and two leafless trees that occupy the open corner of the lawn next to the sidewalk corner. In this part of the lawn, behind one of the trees, is a dark statue of a person standing on a tall white base with dark busts of other people above its bottom edge, one on each side of the base. Farther in the background, next to the second leafless tree, is a short stone slab with a dark rectangle, plus what may be an eagle motif, on its surface. The courthouse building itself is …

Grass, Legume and Forb Cultivation
Photograph of pasture development and improvement. Beef cattle are grazing on Bermuda pasture overseeded to Dallis grass, yellow hop, black medic and white Dutch clovers. 15 acres cleared and sodded this year. Mr. J. L. Jeffus, the district supervisor in the picture, says “In 1937 I started clearing and retiring 216 acres for pasture. With the assistance of CCC [the Civilian Conservation Corps] we cleared 40 acres of small trees and heavy undergrowth and retired 176 acres of cultivated land that in 1936 had overflowed 13 times before I made a crop. This is rich bottomland that is capable of producing a bale of cotton or 40 bushels of corn per acre but wet seasons made yields uncertain. I’ve moved the pasture every year and it carries 108 head of cattle the year round with only a little hay to help through the winter. The land is worth more in pasture than it be in cultivation even if I made a maximum crop every year. I believe regular mowing has increased the carrying capacity of this pasture four times.” TX-41, 227.

Livestock
Photograph of beef cattle grazing 20 acres of improved Bermuda grass pasture. Mr. Gunn, in the picture, developed the pasture several years ago from an old cultivated field and said, “I have mowed the weeds twice a year for three years and I’ve about exterminated a heavy growth of broomweed that hampered the Bermuda’s growth. In 3 years of regular mowing my grazing capacity has increased from one animal unit [for every] 3 acres to one animal unit per acre, 8 months out of the year.” Each year he harrows in and spreads the manure dropped by grazing stock and said that the grass cover is still improving.
