Summary:
Steinbeck talks about how farmers in general prepare to go to california. The farmers have to sell most of their belongings to get money for the trip and to maximize space for traveling. So now that all the farmers are selling and buying all sorts of things, they are bound to run into brokers who pay low prices, because they know that the farmers can't do anything about it.
