“Do many of the people around here still follow such an old-fashioned custom?” remarked the rich man in a teasing way.
“Isn't there anyone nearby sufficiently enlightened not to parade their prayers on table?”
The farmer thought a moment and then said, “Well, I reckon there are some over at my place who never prays over their food.”
“College graduates, no doubt?”
“No, sir,” said the farmer, “my pigs.”
