When you figure it right down, none of us are in a really essential business but the farmer, and he raises so much that even his business is partly non-essential.

Cattlemen have lost more in the last few years than anybody and say less about it.

This session of Congress is also to relieve the farmer again, relieve him of any encouragement that he might have received during the last one.

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.

In the Middle West now you got to put a brand on your soil, then in the Spring go on a round-up looking for it.

These dust storms.... Poor farmer spent a lifetime fixin' his farm and everything, goes out and looks down at it, and it's up above him.

Congress knew Coolidge would veto the farm bill. There was more politics than relief in that bill.

The farmers can be thankful. Didn't the Farm Board decide in Washington last week that they could have cheaper interest? All the farmers have to do now is to find something new to put up as security.
