Brian joined me a few years ago on CNN where he discussed numerous hot topics on the farm. This evolved into one of his most popular posts ever where he explains his cropping agreement with Monsanto and growing GMOs on his family farm. Brian has been a guest on this blog previously, writing the popular Ask A Farmer: Why do farmers leave dying corn in fields?

It is true that most farmers get to work from home but they work 365 days a year and are on call 24 hours a day. It only makes sense to be as close to your animals, fields, barns, green houses, and gardens so when an emergency comes up they are there to take care of it before something goes terribly wrong. Or maybe farmers live close to their animals because chores start before sunrise and end after sundown?

The best part farming is witnessing new life and watching animals grow happy and healthy, but we all know it is not that easy. Farmers keep track of pregnant animals and jump in at a moments notice to help birthing if needed. Farmers need to make sure all of the animals are growing healthy by receiving the proper amount of nutrition, and if they are not, action must be taken immediately adding to chore time morning, afternoon, and night. Farmers have to feed animals daily which means they either need to grow enough feed, chop enough feed, and store enough feed to last a year, or make enough money to buy enough feed to feed their animals everyday. Farmers need to keep barns clean and dry for the animals to have which really means farmers shovel a lot of shit!

Farmer has been the subject of two feature films and several books focusing on her time spent institutionalized, during which she claimed to have been subjected to systemic abuse.[3] Her posthumously released, ghostwritten, and widely discredited autobiography, Will There Really Be a Morning? (1972), details these claims, but has been exposed as a largely fictional work by a friend of Farmer's to clear debts.[4] Another discredited 1978 biography of her life, Shadowland, alleged that Farmer underwent a transorbital lobotomy during her institutionalization, but the author has since stated in court that he fabricated this incident and several other aspects of the book. A 1982 biographical film based on this book depicted these events as true, resulting in renewed interest in her life and career.

Farmer's inconsistent home life had a notable effect on her and, upon returning to Seattle, she recalled: "In certain ways, that train trip represented the end of my dependent childhood. I began to understand that there were certain things one could expect from adults, and others that one could not expect...being shunted from one household to another was a new adjustment, a fresh confusion, and I groped for ways to compensate for the disorder."[13] The next year, her mother returned to Seattle after her home in Chico burned down.[12] In Seattle, the family shared a household, but Lillian and Ernest remained separated despite his attempts to repair their marriage.[10][12] In the fall of 1929, when Farmer was 16, Lillian and Ernest divorced, and Lillian moved to a cottage in Bremerton, Washington, while the children remained with their father.[10]

In 1931, while a senior at West Seattle High School, Farmer entered and won $100 from The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, a writing contest sponsored by Scholastic Magazine, with her controversial essay "God Dies".[14] It was a precocious attempt to reconcile her wish for, in her words, a "superfather" God, with her observations of a chaotic and godless world. In her autobiography, she wrote that the essay was influenced by her reading of Friedrich Nietzsche: "He expressed the same doubts, only he said it in German: Gott ist tot. God is dead. This I could understand. I was not to assume that there was no God, but I could find no evidence in my life that He existed or that He had ever shown any particular interest in me. I was not an atheist, but I was surely an agnostic, and by the time I was 16, I was well indoctrinated into this theory."[15]

In 1937, she was lent to RKO to star opposite Cary Grant in The Toast of New York, the story of a Wall Street tycoon.[31] The film's production was turbulent as Farmer was unhappy with the rebranding of her character from a hard-edged vixen to "an ingnue fresh from Sunnybrook."[31] On set, she argued with director Rowland V. Lee and gave belittling interviews to the press.[34] Unsatisfied with her career direction after The Toast of New York, Farmer resisted the studio's control and every attempt it made to glamorize her private life. A 1937 Collier's article, though, sympathetically described her as indifferent to the clothing she wore and said she drove an older-model "green roadster".[35] Also in 1937, she appeared in the crime drama Exclusive opposite Fred MacMurray and the Technicolor adventure film Ebb Tide opposite Ray Milland.[34]

In a December 1957 interview with Modern Screen, Farmer said: "I blame nobody for my fall. I had to face agonizing decisions when I was younger. The decisions broke me. But, too, there was a lack of philosophy in my life. With faith in myself and in God I think I have won the fight to control myself."[88] She subsequently made two appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show, during one of which she played guitar and sang "Aura Lee", a folk song she had performed in Come and Get It (1936).[89] She also appeared on This Is Your Life in an attempt to clarify the veracity of the publicity she had received throughout her career. Farmer explained to This is Your Life's host, Ralph Edwards:

During the early and mid-1960s, Farmer was actress-in-residence at Purdue University, and spent the majority of her free time painting and writing poetry.[99] She and Ratcliffe attempted to start a small cosmetics company, but although their products were successfully field-tested, the project failed after the man who handled their investment portfolio embezzled their funds.[100] In 1968, she formally converted to Roman Catholicism, as she claimed to have felt God in her life and sensed that she "would have to find a disciplined avenue of faith and worship."[94] She recounted her experience:

Farmer had a great affection for the Saint Joan of Arc church and attended services there regularly in her last years.[102] During this period, she also gave up drinking,[103] and began considering writing an autobiography. She negotiated a collaboration with Lois Kibbee, who encouraged her to tape-record her life story.[104] The experience was emotionally jarring for Farmer, specifically the revisiting of medical records from her institutionalization.[105] The book went unfinished, but Ratcliffe used its manuscript in compiling Farmer's posthumously released autobiography, Will There Really Be a Morning?.[106]

In the spring of 1970, Farmer was diagnosed with esophageal cancer, which was attributed to a life of heavy smoking.[107] She was hospitalized for three weeks before being sent home for a brief period.[105] She died of the cancer at Indianapolis Community Hospital on August 1, 1970.[105][108] She is interred at Oaklawn Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Fishers, Indiana.[109]

In 1982, Jessica Lange portrayed Farmer in the feature film Frances; the film depicts Farmer undergoing a lobotomy, the veracity of which has been disputed.[117] The next year, a television adaptation of Will There Really Be a Morning? was released with Susan Blakely as Farmer.[118] Another feature film based on her life, Committed, was produced in 1984.[119]

Dairy farmers are hard working and innovative, especially when it comes to taking care of their animals and the environment. Most dairy farms are family-owned, and there are many ways you can support dairy farmers. Dairy farmers are also active in their local communities, helping with projects and being involved in different organizations.

Peter Robinson: Victor Davis Hanson back at the ranch on "Uncommon Knowledge" now. Welcome to "Uncommon Knowledge." I'm Peter Robinson. Victor Davis Hanson, a classical scholar at the Hoover Institution, a journalist on Fox News, and on his website The Blade of Perseus, and we come now to today's program, a farmer, here in the San Joaquin Valley of California. Dr. Hanson has published more than two dozen books, including "A War Like No Other", his definitive account of the Peloponnesian Wars and his most recent volume, "The Dying Citizen." Victor, I ordinarily welcome guests to the studio, but you've permitted us to join you here in your house, so thank you for welcoming me.

Victor Davis Hanson: Yes, he would drive in to visit and he would say, and he was all covered with dirt and junk, and my dad would always lecture, "That man was the best pilot in the US. He flew 40 missions with us. He went to Korea and flew 60, and then another guy would come." He was the navigator. This guy was a Jewish guy from Harvard. He was a brilliant mathematician. He got us through, 'cause he figured out how to get home in the dark. And he did that. And the message I got was, all the guys that had all of the attributes to keep them alive didn't do too well in civilian life. And that really was a message my father said, you know, "Every single trait that'll keep you alive, being audacious, reckless, brave is not what makes you money." So he was kind of bitter about that, because there were a lot of people he knew that got deferred and his brother kind of got killed, his first cousin, adopted brother, and then my mom's first cousin who came here, he got killed on D-Day, Holt Cather. And then Belden was good, we all loved Belden. He was a cousin, and he got dengue fever in the Philippines. And he was mentally, you know, he got 108, he almost died. So he would come out, he had nowhere to go And so, and then my uncle was in Alaska, he got wounded, so we would have this table, this table, and they'd all all be around, and it was so funny. They'd say, "Well, you know, the B-29s won the war." And they said, "No we didn't, we stopped them in Alaska." And then somebody would say, "No, no, no. World War I was the war." They'd all kid each other about who had it the easiest. But they were all combat veterans, and wounded, a lot of them. 17dc91bb1f
