The.e are too many people ir the citiet and Coant depending un tko old farmer a, they call them, ami not enough farmer* to ‘upply the country and city too with food. And 1 t».lf you rootobody 1« going to »«f far. It is like an cvpression 1 heard Col. Tall-.-n lie once in a speech at Modoc. S. 11- A farmer rant hit ton off to college. Us rum* home atilt dik el ool in hit fried shirt and collar, diin't oft- to help with any of the *0 < k hi ali. while hr wa* raised to woA. in: hr had been off to colleg. he think ha ought to work any i.uva So the oi l nuu had a horn. U.ought aiound ona morning, railed hi. sou wit asked him: "Son, what is hln ’.n l a; in?” “Horar a bu s. Pa.” ri.- iud a ulo« stock brought around. ■*W»*l. ten. what it this in lastinT” "i'ji/t-busi, Pa.” and tha old man; said, “Yet. and if you don’t take this borx.-s-bu*j and this plow-a-bas* end go to plowing I am going to give yen a hell-a-buas.” So it is going to. be with a lot of the city people, if b. y don't gel out on tho farm where they can mak* them something to cat, they will catch helLadmsi and w.ey won't be long about it. As for • eerything being high, they will con tinue to be h'gh as long at time goat ai, like' it it, too many middle men rtwer.i the man that mokes food oU3 .ind the consumer. Too naaoy phr sit-down job in the shade, they can anokc their cigars ‘tes. The man that labors 1 Ann gem lean out uf what lau anyone else. Lot ol ang around towns, claim looking far work, but pray ' God that they will nav«r find . They don’t want to work, and such people ought to be out on tho gang and madr to work, ( think It it hlgr time for things to change and Gud in His wisdom is going to change it, too. Than arc a lot of people sitting back in the shade Inventing ali kinds nf th'ngs to deHtruy the boll weevil. Why? 8.cause they know the poor old farmer will hiti at anythiag that "isn along that will enable him to nuke cotton. Tho people hove gam bled on cotton I erg enough, and the Luru k'iiue w o it lie wil. dcxt'.-oy it in Mnc way.
