When Farmer Brown leaves another note. “Sorry. We’re closed. Mo milk today.” The farmer’s problems escalate when the electric blankets and refuse to lay eggs. Duck, being neutral takes an ultimatum from Farmer Brown to the cows. After an emergency meeting, the cows agree to exchange the typewriter for the blankets.
