their four young children to dig ditches in subfreezing weather

My wife says this sounds like a typical day where she grew up on a South Dakota ranch...except there were 10 children, and they are all honest and hard working adults now...oh well...

Plus subfreezing weather could equal 31 degrees. Folks that's a down right balmy day where I live. Too many people just believe these newspapers because it's written in black and white. Just because it says the children were malnourished doesn't make it so.
