A farmer was sitting on his porch one day when a young man drives in and
comes to the door.
"Sir, I was driving by and notice you had a lot of milk weed in your
pasture. Would you mind if I went out and got some milk?"
"You don't get milk from milk weed!" the farmer replied.
"Oh yes" said the young man. "I have a degree in Agriculture from Texas A&M,
so I know all about it."
"Well, help yourself." said the farmer . He soon saw the young man coming
back to his car with two buckets full of milk.
The next day the farmer was again sitting on his porch when the same young
man drove up.
"Sir, yesterday when I was getting milk, I noticed you had some honeysuckle
in the fence row. I wondered if you would mind if I got some honey."
"You don't get honey from honeysuckle!" said the farmer. Again the young man
explained about his degree so the farmer agreed to let him collect some
honey. Soon the young man came back to his car with two buckets full of
honey.
The next day the same young man drove up to he farmer's house. "Sir,
yesterday when I was getting the honey, I noticed you had some pussy willow
down by the creek."
The farmer said "Let me get my shoes and I'll go with you!"
