In the CartoonStock Caption Contest number 204, a cow is concerned about a human child who is refusing to eat hay with her calf. The cow, wearing her apron, is the speaker. The cartoonist, new to this blog, is Katherine Bettis.
The rules of the monthly cash prize contest have not changed: Five dollars buys up to three entries. Real cash prizes are $500 for first place and $100 for each of five runners up. As of this writing, I've put $245 into the first forty-nine pay-to-play contests and this fiftieth challenge brings my total cash outlay up to $250. Having achieved runner-up status with three previous entries, I've collected $300 from CartoonStock, so I'm still playing with the house's money, thank you very much. In fact, so few contestants enter that the odds may generally be considered favorable even for less-gifted caption writers. My three entries this round are shown below.
