A salesman was traveling

A salesman was traveling through the countryside selling insect repellent.

He came to a farmhouse and tried his shot on the farmer. “Sir, my repellent is so good that you will never be bitten again.

I guarantee it.” The farmer was dubious. “Young man, I’m going to make you a proposition.

I’m going to tie you up in my bare cornfield, covered in that insect repellent.

If there isn’t a single bite in you by morning, I’ll buy a whole case of you and make everyone in the county buy a case.

We will make you rich.” The salesman was delighted.

They went to the field and he undressed.

The farmer sprayed him completely with repellent and tied him to a tree.

Back home went the farmer.

The next morning the farmer and his family went to the cornfield.

Sure enough, the vendor was there, hanging on his moorings, without a single bite on him.

However, he was in bad condition. Pale, ghastly, haggard and haggard, but not a bite on him.

The farmer was perplexed. “Son,” he said,

“Now, you don’t have any bites, but you look terrible! What happened?”

The salesman looked up with bloodshot eyes and grumbled, “Doesn’t this calf have a mother?”
