From where I sit ...Jy Joe Marsh
Pampered Farmers
If the folks in our town were
less tolerant, they’d be really
burned up over that nationally cir-
culated article on “pampered farm-
ers,” describing them as living off
the fat of the land.
From where I sit the farmer is
anything hut ‘“pampered.” If he’s
better off today than twenty years
i ago it’s because he’s worked hard
to improve the quality and quan-
tity of his production.
Take Bert Childers, for example,
i Bert is up at four in the morning,
to get the milking finished—and
ploughing or harvesting, depending
on the season, until sundown. In
the evening he finally relaxes with
the missus over a moderate glass
of beer.
And the farmer today’s not only
temperate in his habits, like Bert’s
evening glass of beer... but toler-
ant in his opinions. So he’ll prob-
ably say of that article, “somebody
got the facts wrong,” and just
let it go at that.
and summoned, to take notice
that in the estate of August
Blume, Deceased, No. 923 pend-
