A prisoner in jail received a letter from his wife:
"I have decided to plant some wheat in the back forty. When is the best time to plant it and who should I get to plow it?"
The prisoner, knowing that the prison guards read all the mail, replied in a letter:
"Dear Wife, whatever you do, DO NOT touch the back field! Don’t let anyone plow it! That is where I hid all the gold."
A week or so later, he received another letter from his wife:
"You wouldn't believe what happened. Some men came with shovels during the night, and dug up the whole back field."
The prisoner wrote another letter:
"Dear wife, NOW is the best time to plant the wheat!"
