THE LAST ONE - Cont
FIELD ENGINEERING SECTION
  • Is it true that Buck Swofford's going into the chicken business or is there fowl play? The following is a presentation made to Buck by his faithful fieldies, and their promise to get even.
  • First, he was given a packet of Sam's Hair Health Heath Kit, Consisting of 99% chicken manure and 1% water. These instructions followed:
  • "Shine and buff head. Apply generously three times a day. Do not cleanse head for 48 hours or two days, whichever comes first. If hair does not appear, increase use and begin oral intake. Two teaspoons daily with breakfast and lunch. Reapply to head at supper."
  • "Since it's possible to purchase this high grade chicken manure only from Victor F. Weavers, we, your faithful fieldies, have qone to no trouble or expense to acquire, for yov, a lifetime supply from Victor's private stock. And remember, it's guaranteed to grow a crop on top, or as a refund, you will receive a free subscription to Chicken World Byproducts and a tour of Bird-in-Hand, PA."
  • That's when Buck got the bird -- a genuine, live Weavers chicken. Buck's response was, "It's supposed to put hair on my head, but it grows feathers instead." As for Sam, the chicken, Buck says, "He's all white and really bright; And he even knows my name, with a little luck you can hear him cluck, "Buck-buck-buck-buck-buck"
  • (Boot: After you learn the chicken how to say your name, teach him how to fix card punches)
