In the past we could concen trate on good solid indignation over the way the commanders were han dlin' things. But now you can't criti cize one four-star without findin' yourself agreein' with another. Livin' must be a lot simpler in Russia. There, if you open your yap they just shoot you and thus cure what ever mental turmoil you may be laborin' under at the moment. • • • These wet years have just about convinced the younger generation of wheatgrowers that there isn't any hell—in the dry farmin' busi [ ness. Some of the old boys seem to be gettin' a little "tetched" loo. Even Protein Pete had a kind of hopeful look in his eye the other day when he was tellin' about I some tree-ring studies that were made in western North Dakota which showed that in the 1600s there was a stretch of 3S years when every season brought above normal moisture. (Somethin' must have slipped in 1949.) w • • • Alfalfa Ike says an expert is a man who tells you how to solve the problems of life which he avoided by becomin' an expert. • * • Old Man Henderson, whs relived a few rears ago. went oat to the ranch the other day to help his son pot up a piece of fence. He says there seems to be a let more dirt in a posthole than there used to e e e That neighbor of mine says the thing he likes about Montana weather is that it is always the same —changeable. * • e The city farmer down the seed says one good thing about firin' on a farm is that you can quarrel with your wile once in a while without all the neighbors heatin'. .e e A Danish agricultural expert says nervous farmers have nervous pigs. Any mental disturbance is reflected in the pigsty. "Keep your temper, talk friendly to your pigs and caress them." he advises, contending that the pigs wiD then do well by you. He could have added that if it works you might even try the same thing <Mi your family. Martha'« nephew who just grad uated from college has to report for Ehe draft next week. If the army can teach him to get up in the meritin' and get to bed at night he will have what you might call a well-rounded education. ♦ * * This democracy is likely to last a long time unless we start rationin' justice and rollin' back initiative.
