It wasn't until the Administration of the new presidency that came in and showed the farmers a new method of rotation that we slowly started to recover. The Black Monday and Black Sunday thing was just the beginning. The Great Migration to California was a dead end for some and a lot of people died from starvation and dehydration while they crossed the desert.
