THE FARMER
By J. E. Stoakley
The farmers are a hard
ganization,
They will do you a good turn under
no obligation;
They get their living from the top
six inches of soil,
And oh boys how they rake in the spoil
The prices they are receiving, they
must be getting wealthy,
So let's hope they all keep healthy,
And may • they have bountiful crops
Their grannerics bulg they require
props.
The hay may be short, but some other
crops tall,
And that should be satisfaction to all.
The farmers get a lot of help from
their wives,
A lot more than washing forks and
knives;
They feed the chickens and calves
And the work won't be done by halves,
Farming is a profession and must be
handled right,
If they don't they might as Well fly
their kite,
If the farmers funds ever run low,
It's a hard lookout for the rest of tis,
I know.
They are buying hay at forty dollars
per ton,
That is enough to put a lot of people
on the run.
That is a terrible price to pay for hay,
And the farmer feels it till it makes
him sway.
Well, I sold the old Dodge, it was
a faithful old hack,
It always got us there, and. most times
brought us back.
The Dodge and I were quite a pair
We should have been at some big
State Fair,
We were both a bit stiff, due partly
to old age,
If all were known it would fill quite a
page
When I go fishing, all the big ones
get away,
So I just fold up my tackle and call it
a day,
I don't know what is wrong, but the
fish simply won't bite,
Some day they'll get hungry and any-.
thing may taste alright.
When we pull out some fish and find
them a bit short,
We had better throw them back, or
be hailed into court.
It seems the fish are not as sleepy as
they look,
For they well know how to dodge the
hook,
When I was years younger, I thought
I could sing a bit,
The folks used to give me a nickel to
start, and a dime to quit.
One evening I called on old Johnath-
an's daughter,
She set up a grand lunch mostly tooth
picks and water,
I guess I needn't be afraid of getting
the gout,
Although in time I might get rather
stout, •
My wife„ she helps me with the spell-
ing,
So all I have to do is the thinking,
then the yelling,
It sure is a handicap with a poor edu-
cation,But Ihav
e gotten this far, in this
grand old nation,
I was very much pleased to see the
good people around Belmore,
Enjoyed my poetry 'enough to ask for
an encore.
