Just read the farm relief bill. It’s just a political version of Einstein’s last theory. If a farmer could understand it, he certainly would know more than to farm. He would be a professor at Harvard.
It looks to me like the candidates are trying to relieve the farmer of his vote, instead of his debts.
Every time somebody has thought of relief for the farmer it has been to make it so he could borrow more money. What he needs is some way to pay back. Not some way to borrow more.
Don’t raise anything, except what fits your appetite. Then the price don’t worry you. Just raise all you can eat and let the low prices go by.
Wish all the Farmers would move to town one year, that’s the only way I know to clear the thing up.
Rotation of crops and less automobiles will relieve the farmers whenever they decide to try it.
Farmers have about given up hope of getting farm relief and have decided to fertilize instead.
Farmers, get out your sense of humor. Congress meets to relieve you again next week.
Congress knew Coolidge would veto the farm bill. There was more politics than relief in that bill.
You can’t tell what a man is like or what he is thinking when you are looking at him. You must get around behind him and see what he has been looking at.
Coolidge has the best idea on this farm relief. He said, ‘Farmers, you are in a hole. I can’t help you, but I will get in with you.’ He did. That made it fine so the farmers were satisfied as long as Coolidge was going to get in with them.
What the Secretary of Agriculture is trying to do is to teach the farmer corn acreage control, and the hogs birth control, and one is just as hard to make understand it as the other.
Both gangs have been bad sports, so see if at least one can’t redeem themselves by offering no alibis, but cooperate with the winner, for no matter which one it is the poor fellow is going to need it.
And, when the votes are counted, let everybody, including the candidates, get into a good humor as quick as they got into a bad one.
There is only one redeeming thing about this whole election. It will be over at sundown, and let everybody pray that it’s not a tie, for we couldn’t go through with this thing again.
Horsemanship through the history of all nations has been considered one of the highest accomplishments. You can’t pass a park without seeing a statue of some old codger on a horse. It must be to his bravery, you can tell it’s not to his horsemanship.
They used to take your horse and if they were caught they got hung for it. Now they take your car, and if they are caught it’s a miracle.
Money, horse racing and women: three things the boys just can’t figure out.
After seeing kids play polo against big guys, it only shows that horses are the greatest equalizer in the world. No matter what you weigh, the little fellow is your equal on a horse.
I do honestly believe the Republicans have reformed and want to do better. But whether they have done it in time to win the election is another thing. The old voter is getting so he wants to be saved before October every election year.
