No, see, he's *pretending* to look at the hats while he actually uses the glass to check out the gal.

Given that Grady County is right next door to the west on the border with Spanish Florida I can tell you that Mr. Farmer would have likely roasted in his fedora in August. However, it appears that he has a Depp Vent in the top for cooling, making him a style icon decades before the term was invented and misused.

Take note of the obligatory snake proof boots, essential for the "harrowing" experience.

In the center background, a long leaf pine.
