FARMER KAYOED BY
BARREL OF BRICKS
It's All Very Confusing, But
1t Really Happened to
Farmer Green

Farmer Jim Green, Of La Toilette,
Tenn, is building a new house. He
tied barrel to a rope and hoisted it by
pulley to the second-story level of the
unfinished house. Then he tied the rope
to tree, went into the house and filled
the barrel with bricks left over from
the chimney.
When Farmer Green came down and
united the rope to lower the bricks, the
barrel of bricks turned out to be heavier
than Farmer Green. Down crashed
the barrel. Farmer Green, hanging to
the rope, went up.
The jolt of the bricks on the ground
smashed the bottom out of the barrel
The bricks fell through. The lightened
hull went up, and down came Farmer
Green.
Farmer Green landed hard on the
bricks below. He let go the rope. Down
came the empty keg and clouted the
farmer ON the head.

Monkey Is Able to Reason,
Says New York Scientist

Can monkeys reason? Without
taking sides in the man-monkey hy-
pothesis, DR.. Raymond L. Ditmars,
curator of reptiles and mammals at
the New York Geological park, offers
this story in "Strange Animals I
Have Known" about a small ring
tailed monkey from South America
who shared a cage with a young
Brazilian wild dog and coat, which
is cousin Of the raccoon:
An old lady visitor to the Bronx
zoo used to feed the trio Jumps of
sugar daily. The wild dog and the
coat, with their strong teeth, could
eat lump three times as fast as the
monkey. In this way they got by far
the largest share Of the sugar.
The monkey got mad. But before
long and by his own quick wits, he
solved the problem. He dipped his
sugar lump in the water trough, then
swallowed it with few sharp smacks
Of his tongue, and was back at the
wire asking for more long before his
two rivals had been able to down
their dry morsels!
