The Well Known Farmer

A farmer's pal was amazed at how well the farmer was known everywhere they travelled. At the I.F.A. meeting the Chairman made a point of coming down to shake hands with him and while holidaying in London, the Prime Minister recognised him passing by Downing Street and shouted, 'Cheers,' from the window. They journeyed to France and Mr Pompidou sent for the farmer and threw a dinner in his honour. On they went to Rome and as the crowds filled St Peter's Square, the farmer and his pal became separated. The pal stood beside a Pakistani and soon the Pope and the farmer appeared on the balcony. The Pakistani turned to the farmer's pal and said: 'Who ees the tall man in white with the farmer?'
