A young farmer couple got married, and they just couldnt seem to get enough
lovin. Just before leaving the house for the fields at dawn, they made love,
and when the husband returned home at evening they had another go – both before
and after supper, and then again a few more times during the night.

The problems only happened during the day. The fields were far away from the
house and the young man lost half an hour each time traveling home and back
again at noon. Finally he decided to consult a friend, the towns doctor, about
what to do.

Easiest thing in the world, Homer said the doctor. You take your rifle out
with you every day, dont you? Well, when you feel like youre in the mood for
some lovin, just fire a shot into the air as a signal to your wife, for her to
come out to you. That way you wont lose any workin time.

Homer tried his friends solution and it seemed to work pretty well for a while.
One day though, the doctor stopped by the house to pay a visit and he noticed
Homer sitting alone inside looking very somber.

Whats wrong? he asked. Didnt my idea work? And wheres your wife?

Oh, it worked said Homer. Whenever I got in the mood I fired off a shot like
you said, and Beckied come runnin. Then wed find a secluded place and make
love. Then Beckied go back home.

So whats the problem?

Well I think I overdid it, Doc. I aint seen hide nor hair of Beckie since
hunting season got started…
