'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.

\ He also says it’s time to change
the image, to give the man on
the land recognition for providing
“the most bounteous table fare
on earth.”
The Greenville man was one of
the speakers for a comprehensive
program here by Clemson Uni
versity’s College of Agriculture
and Biological Sciences to im
prove instruction.
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.

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

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 BONNIE NEMATODE
RESISTANT TOMATO
The Bonnie Plant Farm is the sole producer of
F-l Hybrid tomato plants known as the “Bonnie
Nematode Resistant Tomato.”
The Tomato is described as being red fruited,
sized medium to large; firm, smooth; uniform col
or (apple-green ripening from inside to bright red).
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.
