Kicking
the Farmer
Lots of folks are kicking
about the farmer—“the
poor, misdirected, mis
guided, inefficient farmer”
— you know how they talk. Why,
they’re so busy kicking about him, says
te 551

The COUNTRY
GENTLEMAN
that they don’t realize how vastly more
inefficient they are themselves. Look
at the storekeeper—a lot of nerve he
has, complaining about the farmer’s
inefficiency, when the percentage of
store failures is ’way greater than that
of farm failures!- j

try G entleman . It
is on the job for the
farmer with both feet,
every week, Fifty-two
times a year. If you want
to know how, let me lend
you my copy to read.
After seeing only one
copy, you'llsay: “Putmy
name on the subscribers’
list. How much? Only
one dollar? Cheap at the
price.” Why not let me
order for you this week?
And look at Congress—
was ever anybody more
inefficient than were our
law-makers during the
war? I should say not!
Fact is, it’s a popular
thing—in the cities and
towns—to lambaste the
farmer for everylx^dy' s
faults. Somebody's got
to be the goat; kick the
farmer, they say.
