The donkey and his tricks

One day a farmer and his donkey went to town. The donkey carried two bags of salt. Soon they came to a small river. There was a bridge across the river. The donkey stepped on the bridge but stumbled and fell into the river. He came out very happy: there was no salt in his bags. Do you know why?

Some days passed. The farmer loaded the donkey with two bags of salt and they again went to town. When the donkey was in the middle of the bridge, he didn’t stumble but he jumped into the river. He was very happy again: there was no salt in his bags.

Next day the farmer loaded the donkey with sponges. He wanted to see Mr. Donkey’s tricks. They went to town again. When they were in the middle of the bridge, the donkey jumped into the water. But this time he was not happy. The bags were very heavy.

A farmer has a donkey and a horse.
