Excerpt from Some Results of Hampton's Work

The Tuskegee Farmers' Conference had its origin in 1892 through the efforts of Dr. Washington to improve the condition of the Negroes in the neighborhood of his school. The people of this section, the Black Belt cotton district, lived, as a rule, in one-room cabins on rented land. They mortgaged their crops and were constantly in debt. Through the influence of the Conference many of the people in Alabama's Black Belt now own homes and farms and raise their own food supplies.
