SC - Islinglass

[HICKS, MELISSA]

Dear my Lord Ras-

You seem to be missing part of the recipe- open lady cattle do not provide
milk, until after they give birth.

May I suggest:

1 cow
Loan of 1 bull
Lots of grain, water and fresh pasture.

Apply bull to cow, in mutually satisfactory manner.
Repeat next day.
Repeat next day.

Wait 1 month, see if cow is in heat. If so, repeat above steps.

When, after one month, cow is not in heat, wait 8 more months.
Upon arrival of calf, separeate calf from cow, and remove milk.
Throughout, apply plenty of grain, fresh water, and pasture to both bull
and cow.
