Ole is a farmer in Minnesota and is in need of a new milk cow. He hears about a nice one for sale over in Nordakoda. (That would be 'North Dakota for you non-Scandahoovians out there). He drives to Nordakoda, finds the farm, and looks at the cow. She's a fine heifer and looks healthy. Ole reaches under to see if she gives milk. When he grabs the teat and pulls...the cow farts. Ole's not too surprised as cows are likely to do that on occasion, but he found that every time he pulled a teat, the cow farts. Ole looked wonderingly at the farmer who says, "Ya, vell, she does that sometimes ya know."
Milk does come out however, so after some discussion with the cow's owner, Ole decides to buy the cow and take her home.
When he gets back to Minnesota, he calls his neighbor, Sven, and says, "Hey Sven, come and look at dis here new cow I yust bought. Sven arrives, admires the cow and Ole says, "Pull her teat, and see vat happens." Sven reaches under, pulls the teat - and the cow farts.
Sven grins at Ole and says, "You bought dis here cow in Nordakoda, didn't yah?"
Ole is surprised since he hadn't told Sven about his trip.
Ole replies, "Yah, dats right, but how DA heck did you know dat?"
Sven says, "My vife is from Nordakota."

Government surveyors came to Ole's farm in the fall and asked if they could do some surveying. Ole agreed, and Lena even served them a nice meal at noon time.
The next spring, the two surveyors stopped by and told Ole, "Because you were so kind to us, we wanted to give you this bad news in person instead of by letter."
Ole replied, "What's the bad news?"
The surveyors stated, "Well, after our work here, we discovered your farm is not in Minnesota but is actually in Wisconsin!"
Ole looked at Lena and said, "That's the best news I have heard in a long time. I just told Lena this morning that I don't think I can take another winter in Minnesota."
