M23-lp 'Poor Dirt Farmer BY HAROLD ROGERS Assistant Extension Editor CLEMSON - “I’m just a poor old dirt farmer trying to make a living out of that little piece of land I’ve got. “I’ve got a few head of scrub cows down on my place. “I manage to scratch out a liv ing growing a little speck of cot ton. “I grow a few nubbins of corn.” Sound familiar? Get a few farmers in a mixed crowd telling about what they do for a living and this is the kind of talk like ly to be bouncing around. Greenville public relations- advertising executive Stan Finch says it’s a mistake. He believes this false modesty is one of the reasons farming is getting down play now.

Talking about the overall image, he said, “seldom is ag riculture seen as it is.” The picture is as varied as there are viewers, he said. The housewife has one image, the po litician another, business and industry still another. “And un fortunately,” he feels, “all are wrong. The outlines of agricul ture are blurred, its motives questioned, and actions suspect.” This is a field that should be proud of its achievements, Finch believes, but instead it’s contri buting to an overall image that is erroneous and distorted. “The average man in agricul ture simply refuses to lay to rest the caricature of the farmer made popular by vaudevillians 50 years ago,” he says.

Rt. 3, Clinton -Ph. 833-1448 H He calls the poor-mouthing, the intentional down-grading by the farmer himself a part of the problem. “1 was raised on a farm. I know that when a man talks about his nubbins of corn and scrub cows he’s joking,” Finch says. *In reality the farmer is just as proud of his achievements as any one, but the public doesn’t know he’s joking. They believe this stuff.” He thinks it’s time to lay aside the false modesty and try to pre sent a new picture. Few young men have any de sire to go into farming as a ca reer, he says, “because we instill in our young the desire to be somebody and with the general image of farming today, too many of them don’t feel they can find on the farm the means to fulfill their dreams.” The image can be changed, he says, but if it is to be, our words and actions must undergo dramatic change. He suggests three steps: 1 - Determine how we are seen, the overall image of agriculture as held by the public; 2-Decide how we wish to be seen; 3-“Take whatever action is necessary to fill in the difference between one and two. ” * * * Jaywalker, O.K. AH Abort Words Although not in common use now, the word jay was once widely used to describe "coun trified” persons unaccustomed to city ways. The rustic’s lack of city experience became even more obvious with the advent of the automobile at the turn of the century. The faster traffic on city streets made it necessary for the mu nicipalities to establish cer tain points, usually at inter sections, where pedestrians might cross over to the other side, protected either by a traffic cop or traffic signs. But it was hard for the coun tryfolk, still accustomed to the horse-and-buggy way of life, to adapt themselves to the new regulations on their infrequent visits to the city. So, without regard to signs or signals, they continued to cross the street at any con venient point, just as they did before the automobile, no doubt causing many appre hensive moments for the ur ban drivers who coined the word jaywalker to describe such persons. Since that time, it has been applied to all per sons who cross a street in vio lation of traffic rules, whe ther from city or country. O. A., also spelled okey or okay, means yes, fine, all right, etc. The origin of the word, which H L. Mencken has described as "the most successful of all American isms,” was, until a few years ago, the subject of much de bate and speculation. In 1941, however, Allen Walker Read offered the most plausible ex planation of the saying and this has since been accepted by almost all etymologists. Writing for the Saturday Re- vine of Literature, Read showed how this expression began when a group of Mar tin Van Buren supporters or ganized "The Democratic O. K. Club” to aid the President in his re-election bid during the 1840 campaign. O. K. be came the club’s watchword or slogan. The abbreviation is from Van Buren’s nickname "Old Kinderhook,” which, in cidentally, comes from the New York town where he was Inirn, reared and practiced law. (). K has since become a part of many other languages. During World War II, even the Japanese* used and under stood the expression. The phrase naked truth has an interesting history. Word experts have traced it back to an old fable which tells of a day when Truth and False hood went swimming in the altogether. (letting out of the water first, Falsehood stole Truth's garments, hut Truth, rather than be found dressed in Falsehood's clothing, pre ferred to remain naked. PC Professors Outline New Lob Approach A unique approach to the fresh man chemistry laboratory will be outlined in a paper by three Pres byterian College professors be fore the annual meeting of the South Carolina Academy of Science in Columbia Friday. The paper entitled “An Equil ibrium-Centered Freshman Laboratory’ will be presented by Dr. K. Nolan Carter, PC chemis try department chairman. His as sociates in the work are Asso ciate Professor Randolph B. Huff and Assistant Professor Eugenia G. Carter. The equilibrium-centered lab oratory, as described in the paper, combines both the quanti tative and qualitative approach in the chemistry laboratory for students who will take additional ^science by laving two lab ses sions weekly during the second semester of their freshman year.

The plants have good cover, should be staked, however, for best results. The “Bonnie Nematode Resistant Tomato” carries resistance to Vertkil- lium, Fusarium and Nematode (root knot disease). The vine is indeterminate (unlike many tomato plants, the Bonnie Nematode Resistant Tomato will bear until killed by frost). Eight to ten inch plants win have tomatoes ready to gather in approximately 70 days from time ot setting. The tomato is firm and a good marketing tomato. Bonnie Plant from highly recommends this to- mato because of its disease resistance, good pro ductivity, and exceDant flavor. JOHNSON ENTQmSES Atom* DU 8U-254*
