I haven't spent much time on farms. They say that the pig is the most intelligent non-human in the barnyard, which seems a shame: horses can pull plows, hens can lay eggs and cows can give milk, but pigs have nothing to do but grow fat and get slaughtered...
I wonder if there really are "horse whisperers" who can communicate with horses? Or maybe it's just from having a lot of experience with them. I couldn't communicate with a horse as effortlessly as many riders seem to. Like after your horse makes a big exertion and you give him a pat that says, "Thank you!" I wish you could just say "Thanks, horsie!" and he could say "You're welcome, human!"
I often go to the Royal Winter Fair in November. They have stuff like free samples of high-grade P.E.I. potatoes, Mennonite baked goods like a honey loaf, and a display of two dozen eggs holding up a 50-pound weight. There's also the butter sculptures--or is that the Canadian National Exhibition in August?
And they also have contests for prize livestock like chickens. There was this cartoon You Were Never Duckier where Daffy Duck was going to be in a best-duck contest, but he saw that the best-rooster prize was a lot bigger so he put a glove on his head Howie Mandel-style and passed himself off as a rooster. But then Hennery the little chicken hawk came along and wanted to take him home and eat him...
