A weed is a species of MOVEMENT
that roots in IMBALANCE
and feeds on CHAOS.
The idea of a WAR ON WEEDS
like the WAR ON DRUGS,
is itself, a weed

![A man sits on a plow pulled by two horses in an open field. He is dressed casually, wearing overalls and boots with work gloves and shoes on his feet. His trousers are rolled up to just below the knees as he operates the machinery that is digging into the earth of what appears to be recently harvested crops or stubble left after a harvest season. The man sports a hat typical for outdoor labor in sunny conditions, likely from cotton fabric judging by its texture and shape. He has his legs crossed at the ankles with one foot resting on the plow's wheel, suggesting he is engaged in active work rather than taking a break. His posture indicates that he may be slightly fatigued or deep in concentration as he looks to the side of what might be crops beyond him.
The horses are harnessed and appear well-muscled for such labor-intensive tasks. Their harnesses look sturdy, designed specifically for plowing fields under conditions where mechanized equipment was not yet prevalent. The sky is clear with no visible clouds, suggesting a sunny day or possibly even drought-like weather typical of agricultural regions.
The field extends into the distance, showing rows that have been previously worked on and now stand as remnants of crops awaiting further processing like baling for hay or leaving to dry before storage.

The image is a black and white photograph showing an older man standing in front of what appears to be the side of a barn or shed. The structure has corrugated metal siding, with one section that looks like it could use repair or maintenance. To his right behind him, there's some hanging equipment which might include farming tools or clothing, suggesting this setting is likely on an agricultural property. The man himself wears overalls and suspenders indicative of a farmer or laborer in the early to mid-20th century American rural life. His posture is casual yet proud; he stands with his hands resting on his hips and head slightly tilted forward as if posing for the camera. He's wearing what seems like work boots suitable for farm work. The environment around him indicates a dry, possibly dusty location given the clear sky in the background and the sandy ground beneath him. The overall composition of this photo suggests it was taken during one of Dorothea Lange’s "Agricultural Relief Administration" projects documenting rural life on American farms.

The image is a black and white photograph depicting a rural landscape, likely from the early to mid-20th century. A dirt road stretches out into the distance with fences lining its sides on both ends of the frame. Sparse vegetation dots the otherwise barren land which extends towards rolling hills in the background under an expansive sky. Several structures can be seen, including what appears to be a dilapidated barn and some smaller sheds or houses, suggesting this might be farmland or ranchland. The photograph is marked with "D-14815" at the top right corner, indicating it may have been catalogued as part of an archive. The text on the bottom left indicates that additional information can be found in Owyhee project landscape and references a specific number within this context (General caption number 66). This suggests the photograph is from a larger collection or study related to landscapes around Vale, Malheur County, Oregon. The overall impression of the image conveys a sense of isolation and simplicity associated with rural life during that era.

![The image is a black and white photograph depicting an older male seated on the ground in what appears to be a vast, open field. He wears overalls with multiple pockets, indicating they may contain tools or personal items for his work. His attire suggests he could be engaged in agricultural labor, as indicated by the clothing style common among farmers of that era.
He is wearing a wide-brimmed hat and glasses with dark lenses. The man's expression appears contemplative yet solemn, possibly reflecting on something serious or indicative of hard work typical of rural life during his time. His gaze is directed towards the camera, suggesting awareness of being photographed but not posing for it.
In the background, there are no other people visible; only a distant horizon with what could be vegetation and perhaps farmland under an expansive sky, emphasizing isolation often associated with agricultural settings in remote areas like Owyhee County in Malheur County, Oregon. The clear skies suggest fair weather conditions during this time of year.
The photo is labeled "3-PSAIS" at the top right corner, which could be a reference to some internal classification or identification system used by the photographer's studio or archive. The image also hints that it might relate to Mr. Roberts who was likely an FSA (Farm Security Administration) borrower as per the caption provided.
