Last Will of Mr. Farmer

I leave:

To my wife – my overdraft at the bank – maybe she can explain it.

To my bank – my soul – he has the mortgage on it anyway.

To my neighbor – my clown suit – he’ll need it if he continues to farm as he has in the past.

To the ASCS – my grain bin – I was planning to let them take it next year anyway.

To the county agent – 50 bushels of corn to see if he can hit the market – I never could.

To the junk man – all my machinery – he’s had his eye on it for years.

To my undertaker – a special request – I want six implement and fertilizer dealers for my pall bearers.  They are used to carrying me.

To the weatherman – rain and sleet and snow for the funeral, please – no sense in having good weather now.

To the grave digger – don’t bother.  The hole I’m in should be big enough.
