Two women inherit their father's ranch.
One woman is blonde, the other a brunette.
As time goes by they experience money difficulties.
Realizing they will need a bull to breed their cows,
the brunette tells her sister she is going in to town to buy a bull
and when she buys one, she will send her a message to bring the truck and trailer to pick it up.
She purchases a bull for $599.00.
She heads over to send her sister a telegram to come.
She asks the man in the office how much to send a wire to her sister.
The man tells her it is $.99 a word.
The brunette thinks for a minute, then tells the man to send one word: comfortable.
The man asks her if she's sure her sister will understand her.
She tells the man her sister is a blonde and that she reads slowly.
She will read the message as:
Come for the bull.
