Omaha, Neb.-It seems that there is
some foundation in the fact for this
old rhyme. Here is the story which
an Omaha woman, home from vaca-
ton on the Connecticut farm, is tell
ing:
Every evening | used to love to
hear the old farmer at whose place |
was staying singing cheerily AS he
MIXED his five COWS. 1t appealed to
me as a pretty touch Of sylvan exist
ence.
One evening walked into the barn
when the milking was in progress and
the old man sat singing away.
We'll, Mr.. Hart, it does me good to
hear you are 50 happy | said.
Happy he retorted, turning upon
me with whitening sarcasm. I reckon
you must think I'm quite some must
cal, don't ye? I'd be heap happier
if could ever run across hired man
who had enough brains to keep his
mouth shut while he was milking One
blessed lunatic of them after another
sits down on the milking stool and
once the COWS get used to the enter
tainment there's no breaking them of
the habit They won't give you any
milk less you give them tune. Have
yourself, now, Bess! The concerts
going to continue
And he broke into song again,
while l slowly left the barn, another
simple life idyI shattered.
Il was so incredulous, however, that
| asked his wife if this seemingly abb
surd thing was true or if the old man
might not have been joking me- She
replied that it was very poor joke
for her husband. If he didn't keep
singing the whole time he didn't get
half the proper quantity of milk.
Then she proceeded to tell me of
a COW her father had obtained once
from an old fellow who was noted as

ing was attempted, with the usual
display of bad temper on the cows
part.
Then suddenly he began to whistle
the tune of an old hymn. At the first
notes the COW stopped her antics and
stood quietly until MIXED, the old
chap keeping up the whistling all the
while.
"That's it, he explained compla-
Gently when it was over. I've sort
of got in the habit Of whstling that
tune as I milk and I reckon she missed
it,
lie seemed rather pleased with the
beasts appreciation of his accomplish
ment, but it was a long time before
the farmer got over his annoyance at
having to learn to whistle the tune of
that old hymn in order to milk his
new COW"
