The marriage between the elderly farmer and his young wife was not working out too well, so the farmer consulted his doctor for advice. "The next time you're down in the field ploughing and feel a yearning for your wife don't wait until lunch time or the end of the day, but quit what you're doing and go to the house" said the doctor. "I tried that" said the farmer "But by the time I get to the house, I am so tuckered out, it's no use". The doctor thought for a minute "Take your shotgun with you when you leave the house in the morning and if you feel the urge, shoot the gun and she will come down there where you are". A few weeks later the two men met on the street. "How did it work out?" asked the doctor. "Fine, the first three days" said the farmer "But then hunting season opened and I haven't seen her since".
