The collection consists of materials related to the Delta Cooperative Farm (DCF) in Rochdale, Mississippi, a 1938-1939 agricultural cooperative made up primarily of former tenant farmers, many of them from Arkansas. The materials were primarily compiled by Louise Heflin Stuart for her master's thesis, and also include materials regarding other agricultural labor groups such as the Southern Tenant Farmers' Union (STFU). Collection materials include manuscripts, interview notes, correspondence, publications, meeting minutes, and newspaper clippings.
