WHAT 1 KNOW OF FARMING.
BY HORACE GREELEY
XXXI.
THE FARMER'S CALLING
If any one fancies that he ever heard
me flattering farmers as a class, or say
ing anything, which implied that they
wore more virtuous, upright, unselfish,
or deserving, than any other people, I
am sure he must have misunderstood
or that he now misrecollects me. 1
do not even join in the cant,. which
speaks of farmers ' as sUppOrtilig,evary
boo else—of farming as the only in
dispensable vocation. You may say
if you will that mankind could not
subsist if there were no tillers of the
soil; but the same is true of house
builders, and of some other classes. A
thoroughly good farmer is a useful val
uable citizen : so is a good merchant,
doctor, or lawyer. It is not essential
to the true nobility and genuine worth
of the farmer's calling that any other
should be assailed or disparaged.
Still, if one of my three sons had been
spared to attain manhood, I should
have advised him to - try to make him
self a goOd farmer; and this without
any romantic or poetic notions of Ag
riculturer as - a pursuit. I know well
from personal though youthful experi
ence, that the farmer's life is one of
labor, anxiety and care that hail, and
flood, and hurricane, and untimely
frosts, over which he , can- exert no
control, will often destroy in an hour
the net results of months of persistent,
well-directed toil ; that disease will
sometimes sweep away his animals, in
spite of the most judicious treatment,
the . most thoughtful providence, on
his part; and that insects, blight and
rust, will often blast his well-grounded
hopes of a generous harvest, when
they seem on the very point of realiza
tion. I know that he is necessarily
exposed more than most other men, to
the caprices and inelemencies of weath
er and climate; and that, if he begins
responsible life without other means
than those he finds in his own clear
head and strong arms, with those of
his heipmeiet, he must expect to strug
gle thrciugh years of poverty, frug
ality, and resolute persistent, industry
before he can reasonably hope to at
tain a position of independence, com
fort, and comparative leisure. I know
that much of his work is rugged, and
some of it absolutely repulsive; I know
that ho will seem, even with unbroken
good fortune, to be making money
much more slowly than his neighbor
the merchant, the broker, or eloquent
lawyer, who fills the general eye while
he prospers, and, when he fails, sinks
out of sight and is soon forgotten ; and
yet, I should have advised my sons to
choose farming as their vocation, for
these among other reasons:
L There is no other business in
which success is so nearly certain as
in this. Of one hundred men who
embark in trade, a careful observer
reports that ninety-five fail ; and, while
I think this proportion too large, I am
sure that a large majority do, and
must fail,because competition is so ea
ger and traffic so enormously overdone.
If ten men endeavor to support their
families by merchandise in a town
ship which affords adequate business
for but three, it is certain that a ma
jority must fail, no matter how frugal
their living. But you may double the
number of farmers in an agricultural
county I ever traversed, without ne
cessarily dooming one to failure, or
even abridging his gains. If half the
traders and professional men in this
country were to betake themselves to
farming to-morrow, they would not
render that pursuit one whit less pro
fitable, while they would largely in
crease the comfort and wealth of the
entire community: and, while a good
merchant, lawyer, or doctor, may ho
starved out of any township, simply
because the work he could do well is
already confided to others, I never yet
heard'of a temperate, industrious, in
telligent., frugal, and energetic farmer
who failed to make a living; or who,
-unless prostrated by disease or disa
bled by casualty, was precluded from
securing a modest independence be
fore age and decrepitude divested him
of the ability to labor.
11. I regard farming as that voca
tion which conduces most directly and
palpably to a reverence for Honesty
and Truth.. The young lawyer is of
ten constrained, or at least tempted,
by his necessities, to do the dirty pro-.
fessional work of a rascal intent on
cheating his neighbor out of his right
eous dues. The young doctor may be
likewise incited to resort to a quack
ery he despises in order to secure in
stant bread; 'the unknown author is
often impelled to write what will sell
rather thin what the public ought to
buy; but the young farmer, acting as
a farmer, must realize that his success
depends upon his absolute verity and
integrity. He deals direotly , with
Nature; which never was and never
will be cheated. He has no temptation
to sow beach sand for plaster, dock.
seed for clover, or stoop to any trick
or juggle whatever. "Whatsoever a
man sowoth that shall he also reap,"
while it is true, in the long run, of all
men, is instantly and palpably true as
to him. When he, having grown his
crop, shall attempt to sell it—in other
words, when, ho ceases to be a farmer
and becomes a trader—ho may possi
bly be attempted into one of the many
devious ways of rascality; but, so long
as he is acting simply as a farmer, he
can hardly be lured from the broad,
straight highway of integrity and
righteousness.
111. The farmer's calling seems to
me that most conducive to thorough
manliness of character: Nobody ex
pects him to cringe, or smirk, or cur
ry favor, in order to sell his produce.
No merchant refuses to buy it because
his politics are detested or his religi
ous opinions heterodox. He may be
a Mormon, a Rebel, a Millerite, or a
Communist, yet his Grain or his Pork
will sell for exactly what it is worth—
not a fraction less or more than the
price commanded by the kindred pro
duct of like quality and intrinsic value
of his neighbor, whose opinions on all
points are faultlessly orthodox and
popular. On the other hand, the
merchant, the lawyer, the doctor, es
pecially if young and still struggling
dubiously for a position, aro continu
ally tempted to sacrifice or suppress
their profoundest convictions in de
ference to the vehement and often ir
rational prepossessions of the commu
nity, whose favor is to them the breath
of life. "She will find that that won't
go down here," was the comment of
an old woman on a Mississippi steam
boat, when told that the plain, deaf
stranger, who seemed the focus of
general interest, was Miss Martineau,
the celebrated Unitarian; and in so
sayi❑g she gave expression to a feel
ing which pervades and governs many
if not most communities. I doubt
whether the social intolerance of ad
verse opinions is more vehement any
where else than throughout the larger
portion of our own country. I have
repeatedly been stung by the receipt of
letters gravely informing me that my
course and views on a current topic
wore adverse to public opinion : the
writers evidently assuming, as a mat
matter of course, that I was a more
jumping-jack,who only needed to know
what other people thought to insure
my instant and abject conformity to
their prejudices. Very often, in other
days, I was favored with letters from
indignant subscribers, who, dissenting
from my views on some question, took
this method of informing me that they
should no longer take my journal—a
superfluous trouble, which could only
have meant dictation or insult, since
they had only to refrain from renew
ing their subscriptions,and their TRIB
UNE would stop coming, whenever they
should have received what we owed
them ; and it would in no case stop
till then. That a journalist was in
any sense a public teacher—that he
necessarialy had convictions, and was
likely to suppress them, because they
were not shared by others—in short,
that his calling was other and higher
than that of a waiter at a restaurant,
expected to furnish whatever was
called for, so long as the pay was
forthooming—these ox•subscribers had
evidently not for one moment suspec
ted. That such persons have little or
no capacity to insult, is very true ;
and yet, a man is somewhat degraded
in his own estimation by learning that
his vocation is held in such low esteem
by others. The true farmer is proud
ly awarothat it is quite other wise with
his pursuit—that no one exprets him
to swallow any creed, support any
party, or defer to any prejudice, as . a
condition precedent to the sale of his
products. Hence, I feel, that it is
easier and more natural in his pur
suit, than in any other for a man to
work for a living, and aspire to suc
cess and consideration, without sacri
ficing self-respect, compromising in
tegrity, or ceasing to be essentiall and
thoroughly a gentleman.
