Summary: 

Mink goes to pick up his cow on the last day of winter. He is thwarted by Houston who wants substantially more money for the cow to take into account the feed she has consumed and that she has been "topped" (16) by Houston's young bull, but the figure is more than Mink thinks she is worth. Mink sees that his plan is foiled.
