I have witnessed this same dance many times. I love going to a diner getting a table to keep an eye on her and just watch people dance around it.

Hey, our very own Hickey (farmer Bill) is a Midwestern wheat(?) farmer. He's alright but his wife is lovely.

I think such racist epithets are very plastic. Having said that in Oz, where we, or at least most of us, remain unreconstructedly politically incorrect 'Wog' is a term applied to Italians and Greeks or people who's parents came from the eastern Mediteranean or southern Europe. Nowadays its a badge worn with pride. Try and call a Wog a Wog and expect him to be offended and you'll be laughed out of the pub!
Generally though as you say 'Dago' was, I thought, western European as in Spanish or Portugese. Wogs were as listed above. Balts were people from, unsurprisingly the Baltic states. Anyone with asiatic features, even if they aren't Asian is either a 'Slope' or a 'Curry Muncher'. We don't have many folk of south American or sub-saharan African origin but 'cos black people stand out they get noticed and, yes, villified by idiots. You can, if you want just lump 'em all in together and call 'em 'Reffo's'
I'll bet that those two, if they are representative of the average mid-western, farmer will be lovely blokes who regardless of what they might argue about with each other you could sit down next to in a bar and regardless of who or what you looked like if you were willing to 'Chew the fat'? They'd be right there chewin' along with you. There might be a bit of spittle and tobacco juice involved but I'd bet they don't have a bad bone in their bodies. Believe me. I've met a host of 'em!!!

Couldn't have said it better myself Pete. Just something new to them and that's how they described it.

+1 to Dean and Pete.
People who are self-assured don't take umbrage to slang terms, and those that do structure their lives around being a victim. I'll bet these good 'ole boys would be perfectly cordial if they met a "dago" in person.

Corn and soybean farmer. I don't actually grow any wheat.
And yes, Mrs. Farmer Bill is lovely.
