A traveling salesman hawking insect repellent knocks on a farmer's door. He extolls the virtues of his product and how great it would be for the farmer while out working in the field. The farmer says, "Well, let's test it. If it's as good as you say, I'll buy a whole case." The salesman agrees. They go out to the field. The farmer says, "Strip down and slather your stuff on. I'll tie you to a fence post overnight and we'll see." Eager to make the sale, the salesman agrees. The next morning the farmer goes out to the field.

The salesman says weakly, "That's great, but doesn't that calf have a mother?"
