A olRL.s ESSAY ON re COW.

The following is little girls essay
on the COW: "a COW is an animal with
four legs on the under side. The tail is
longer than the legs, but is not used to
stand on. The COW has big ears that
wiggle on hinges; so does her tail. The
cow is bigger than the calf, but not so
big as an elephant. She is made so
small that she can go into the harm when
nobody is looking. Some COWS are
black and some hook. A dog was
hooked once. She tossed the dog that
killed the cat that worried the rat.
Black cows give white milk; so do
other COWS. Milk men sell milk to buy
their little girls dresses. which they put
water in and chalk. Cows chew cuds,
and each finds its own chew. That is
all there is about cows. Exchange.
