City Cow

Farmers and farm editors chortled. A full-page Wartime Prices and Trade Board anti-inflation ad showed a cow being milked on the wrong side (the cow's right side is her right side).

Cracked the Norwood (Ontario) Register: "It . . . must be a Government-trained, left-handed Ottawa cow."

Snorted the Trenton (Ontario) Courier-Advocate: ". . . The Prices Board must have sent out one of those Government men who tell the farmers how to run their farms. . . . When instructed to come up to bossy at the stern end, he became confused, and all he could see was a pair of oversized eyes and a set of horns. 'By golly,' he said, 'this must be the stern end, for what could look sterner?' "
