The author of Don’t Whiz on an Electric Fence and When I Am an Old Coot spreads some down-home, hard-won, gut-busting facts.
 
Dishing out witty one-liners and old-fashioned country logic the same way an old camp cook dishes out beans and biscuits, Roy English’s Advice from a Country Farmer is simply this—no-nonsense humor and wisdom from a country gentleman schooled in common sense and kindness.
 

“Most farmers work only half a day; the other twelve hours they do other stuff.”

“When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.”

“Don’t skinny dip with snapping turtles.” 

“Horsepower is no substitute for horse sense.”

“The only farmers who sleep late are in the cemetery.”

“Nobody works harder than a farmer, except maybe a farmer’s wife.”
