The worm was found in gin trash in this vicinity in 1933, and in 1934, no cotton was grown; instead, the entire acreage in the threatened area was rented by the federal govern ment in connection with its cotton reduction program. The “starvation” plan of eradi cation was attempted in this vicinity, and apparently government agents are satisfied that the worm is elimi nated or under control. They are still watching the situation, how ever. . „ I AM THE FARMER I am the provider for all mankind. Upon me every human being con stantly depends. A world itself is builded upon my toil, my products, my honesty. Because of my industry, America, my country, leads the world. Her prosperity Is maintained by me; her great commerce is the work of my good hands; her "balance of trade" springs from the furrows of* my farm. My reaper brings food today; my plow holds promise tor tomorrow. In war I am absolute; in peace 1 am indispensible—my country’s sur est defense and constant reliance. I am the very soul of America, the hope of the race, the balance wheel of civilization. When I prosper men are happy; when I fail all the world suffers. I live with nature, walk in the green fields under the golden sun light, out in the great alone where brain and brawn arid toil supply mankind’s primary needs. And I try to do my humble part to carry out the great plan of God. Even the birds are my compan ion?; they greet me with a symphony at the new day’s dawn and chum with me till the evening prayer is said. If it were not for me the treasures of the earth would rer. ain securely naked; the granaries would be use less names; man himself would be doomed speedily to extinction or de cay. Through me is produced the ener gy that maintains the spark of life. I rise with the early dawn and re tire when the “chores” of the world are done. 1 am your true friend. I am the Farmer. —Dallas New Era. SHAN’T STEAL THE SHOW All denials to the contrary, it seems that Talmadge did rebuke Tom Linder, commissioner of agricul ture, for using The Market Bulletin to propagate his crued and inflam matory notions about “secession." At any rate, the propaganda has sud denly ceased. The amusing part is that Talmadge himself, as commissioner of agricul ture, was as bad an offender as Lin- der has been later in misusing The Market Bulletin. It is perfectly clear that The Bulletin was authoriz ed by the Legislature for the pur pose of disseminating market news to the farmers—only that and noth ing more. But Talmadge, as com missioner of agriculture, used it as a political organ until the Legisla ture, in 1931, embodied in its gener al appropriation act a provision that The Market Bulletin would be sus pended by Governor Russell if Tal madge kept on printing political editorials in it. Of course Linder’s ravings about secession were particularly stupid, but everybody understands that the real reason Talmadge rebuked him was that he can “bear no brother near the throne." So now there is no more danger that Linder will run away with the show while Talmadge stages his own rebellion against the United States government.—Macon News.
