I sent the farm hand for a role of duct tape and a washcloth. I'm sure I seemed crazy to them, but if the cow was dying anyway, I sure couldn't hurt anything.

It will be a great place to hang cleaning rags and damp washcloths or drying hosiery. Use turntables to minimize storage for tall bottles of hairspray, toothpaste, or shaving cream. See-through boxes and pull-out drawer units are handy.
