Carnation Milk rhyme contest

A little lady from Wisconsin had worked around family dairy farms since she was old enough to walk, putting in thousands of hours of hard work with little compensation.

When canned Carnation Milk became available in grocery stores (1940s or 50s), she read an advertisement offering $5,000 for the best rhyme beginning with "Carnation Milk is best of all."

She thought to herself, I know all about milk and dairy farms and I can do this. She sat down and in a few moments, she had written her rhyme, which she mailed to Carnation Milk.

A month later, a black limo drove up in front of her house. A man got out, knocked on the lady's door and said to her, "Carnation loved your entry so much; we are here to award you $1000 for your rhyme. But, sadly, we won't be able to use it in our advertising."

The Lady's entry was:

Carnation milk is best of all,
no tits to pull, no **** to haul,
no buckets to wash, no hay to pitch,
just poke a hole in the son-of-a-bitch.
