In the good old summer time.





















 A livestock feed salesman was traveling through a very remote rural area and his car broke down. Getting out, the man walked down the dirt road and eventually came to a farmhouse. Walking up into the yard, the salesman saw an old farmer sitting on the porch. Sitting beside him was a pig with two wooden peg legs. The farmer allowed the salesman to use the telephone and call a tow truck.
Once he had, the salesman and the farmer moved back out onto the porch and began talking. The salesman commented to the farmer, "Sir, I couldn't help but notice that your pig has two wooden peg legs."
"That there is an incredible pig, young man. One night, there was a fox in the hen house and the incredible pig charged up on this here porch and banged on the door until I woke up and heard the commotion. Saved me a lot of chickens, he did."
"Wow," the salesman said, "that is an incredible pig".
"Oh, that ain't all he's done" replied the farmer. "Another time, the incredible pig saved me and my wife's lives. Our kitchen had caught fire and the incredible pig kept charging the door until he broke in. He raced upstairs and woke us up. I was able to put out the fire. Yep, that pig saved us, he did".
The salesman was amazed. "Sir, you are right. That is truly incredible pig. If you don't mind my asking, what happened to his legs?"
"Son," replied the farmer, "you just don't eat an incredible pig like this one all a once."

 A rancher needs a bull to service his cows but needs to borrow the money from the bank. The banker who lent the money comes by a week later to see how his investment is doing. The farmer complains that the bull just eats grass and wont even look at the cows. The banker suggests that a veterinarian have a look at the bull.
The next week the banker returns to see if the vet helped. The farmer looks very pleased: "The bull has serviced all my cows, broke through the fence, and has serviced all my neighbor's cows."
"Wow," says the banker, "what did the vet do to that bull?".
"Just gave him some pills," replied the farmer.
"What kind of pills?" asked the banker.
"I don't know," says the farmer, "but they sort of taste like peppermint."

 A man was driving down a quiet country lane when out into the road strayed a rooster. Whack! The rooster disappeared under the car in a cloud of feathers.
Shaken, the man pulled over at the farmhouse and rang the doorbell. A farmer appeared. The man somewhat nervously said, "I think I killed your rooster, please allow me to replace him."
"Suit yourself mister," the farmer replied, "the hens are round the back."
