A farmer goes into a farm
supply store and orders two hundred chicks, explaining to the owner that
he wants to start a chicken farm. Two weeks later, he returns to the
store and buys another two hundred chicks. The owner is curious, but
doesn't say anything. The same thing happens when the farmer returns in
another two weeks for another two hundred chicks.
When he returns for the fourth time, the owner's curiosity is too much
for him, so he asks the farmer why he keeps coming back for so many
chicks. The farmer says, "Well, I guess I must be doing something
wrong, but I don't know what. I think I'm either planting them too deep
or too close together."
Bemused by his lack of success, the farmer sends off a report of what he
has done to the local agricultural school, asking for advice. Three
weeks later, the reply comes back, saying simply, "Please send soil
sample."
