INQUISITIVE COW
Drank U. s. Paint and Government
 Paid the Owner

Even though a Connecticut COW is a very inquisitive COW and is guilty of contributorv negligence, the owner of that milk-giving animal is entitled to reimbursement when the creature drinks paint belonging to the United States government and dies. the House has decided.
 The COW. it seems. came in contact with the paint through carelessness of members of the Geodetic Survey when those same members were doing some painting on the river gauges at the Connecticut dam near Enfield.
 A bucket of paint was left where the COW could get to it, the House was told by a bin presented to the House by Representative F. Hart Fenn. The COW imbibed and died
 4 report from the district engineer said that the COW died from drinking the paint. that it was a very inquis- itive COW and had been driven away from the paint bucket twice.
 A member of the House suggested that the COW might have been guilty of contributory negligence, but by unanimous consent the lower branch of Congress decided to remunerate the owner of the inquisitive COW to the extent of Sl60.
