EDWIN MARKHAM-A POET
WHO OUTLINED
HIS FAME '5.9 fg

A stock figure in literary legend
is the poet who attracts little notice
during his lifetime only to win inn
mortal note after his death. Edwin
Markham who died Thursday at the
ripe age of 88 to certain extent
reversed the process His reputa-
ition, despite a long career in which
he produced great deal of what
might be called first rate second
rate poetry rests, after all is said
and done on one poem, "The Man
With the Hoe" written more than
40 years before he died.
Even this work is best rem ember-
ed, not solely because it is the truly
great poem that critics unite in de-
claring it to be, but because it's
theme and treatment conceded with
the awakening social conscience OF
the times in which it appeared It
was written in 1899 at time when
there was much agitation in the air
and legislation being enacted re-
lating to the working hours and the
rights of the laboring classes.ss In
spired by Millet's famous painting
of the same name showing a French
peasant resting briefly from his toll,
it was the synthesis, in dramatic,
burning ynhrases, of what the poet
called all OF mankinds 'immedi-
cable woes" beginning with the
memorable lines Bowed by the
weight of centuries he leans upon
his hoe and gazes onsthe ground, the
| emptiness Of ages in his face and on
his back the burdens Of the world"
| The poem struck the public fancy
cd In
| has done. It was copied, parodied,
printed and reprinted all over the
world. Feature articles and edi-
torials by the hundreds were writ
| ten about it and it's author, who pro-
| tested in vain against the unex-
pected publicity, that he had no in
tention to pen social document
but simply to interpret his personal
impression of great painting. But
in an era when the IL and IA hour
working day and other, industrial
evils which this generation finds it
difficult to envisage so long have
they been in disrepute, were import
ant issues, is was call to arms.
Edwin Markham continued to
write for many years, becoming in
| old age picturesque bewhiskered,
Whitmanesque figure. In 1897 he
was adjudged of unsound mind and
at the same time was elected honor
ary president of the Poetry Society
of America. But had he never writ
ten The Man With the Hoe which
is said to have earned $25O,0OO for
him, his impress on his times prob
ably would have been negligible.
| Nevertheless he had his moment on
the heights and because Of it his
name has since been familiar in ev-
cry American household and school,
room and will occupy its own unique
place in American literature.-Co-
lumbus Dispatch.

Cooley Explains Federal
Crop Insurance Program
"All-RisEx" Guaranty to Farmers Outlined by
Conoressman as Government Prepares 10
Make Surety Effective on Some crops.

mcnt Of premiums may Ec extended
and gives the corporation power 10
determine upon what, ii ANY. Sc
curity such credit may be allowed.
There may be included in the prem"
iums in the discretion OF the cor
poration part or all Of the expenses
of local committees or associations.
JndemDities Paid In Kind
Just DIS premiums are paid in kind,
that is in bushels Of wheat or pound;
Of cotton, or the cash equivalent,
likewise indcmnitiCS are paid either
in wheat, Gotten, or cash equivalent.
1t is plain to sec that premiums may
be paid in wheat or cotton when
prices arc low and indemnities may
be paid in wheat or cotton when
prices arc high. In the event OF a
nationwide crop failure prices would
naturally advance and farmers SUI
fering losses would receive their
indemnitics in the particular COM
modify or lis cash equivalent, de-
termined at the time Of the payment
Of such indemnitios. The corpora
ton must always have on hand
bushels Of wheat and pounds of
cotton equivalent to premiums paid
by farmers. Such wheat and cotton
having been acquired by the cor
poration at the time Of the payment
Of each premium. it is not a burden
upon the corporation TO pay indcm-
mites in wheat, cotton, or the cash
equivalent.
An Experiment
"All-riSk" crop insurance is Il COM
prchCTSivc experiment Of great pro-
portions. It is an experiment that
only the Federal government can
afford to undertake, yet it is an OK
pertinent which tic government OF
the United StatCS can well afford to
undertake in view Of the importance
of American agriculture to the eco
nOmc life and welfare Of the ma
ton The administrative costs arc
to be paid by the government dur
ing the experimental stage OF the
undertaking, but VIC hope that with
in the next few years the adminis-
trativc costs may be included in
premiums to be charged, and that
the farmers themselves through the
payment of premiums will enable
the corporation to be sclr-sustaining
and permanent.
II is not possible in Il brief state
mecnt to discuss with any degree Of
detail this new and very worthwhile
experiment. cut | shall be glad to
furnish additional information to
farmers interested in ''all-riSk" crop
insurance, which | hope will some
day be extended SO as to include to-
bacco ard other major farm COM
moditieS.
