A man from the city is out plowing his field and gets his tractor stuck in the wet ground.
A farmer driving by stops his truck and walks to the fence to call over the city feller.
You need a mule to plow such wet ground he says.
"Where can I buy one?
" he is asked.
Well, I just happened to have one for 100 dollars he says.
"I'll take him," says the other man as he counts out the money.
I can't bring him over today.
I don't work on Sunday morrow OK?
"Sure." The next day the truck pulls up and the old farmer gets out.
He says, "sorry, bad news." I went out after breakfeast and the mule was dead.
The city feller says just give me my money back then.
"Can't, spent it already!
" "Well...
unload the mule then." "What ya gonna do with him?
" "Raffle him off!
" "Naw, ya cant raffle off a dead mule!
" "Just watch me us!
City fellers know a few tri cks." One month goes by and the city feller and farmer run into each other at the barber shop.
"What did ya do with that dead mule?
" "Raffled him off, sold 100 tickets at two dollars each and made 98 dollars profit." "Didn't anyone complain?
" "Just one guy so I gave him his two dollars back!
