Prabhupāda: Mosquito?
Devotee (1): Yes.
Prabhupāda: Oh. (laughter) Many, many? Without mosquito curtain you cannot sleep.
Devotee (1): No, we can sleep. At Advaita Bhavan there's a fair amount of mosquitos at night, but there's not so many that you can't sleep without a mosquito coil burning.
Prabhupāda: That's all right. [break]
Devotee (2): The rats in Hawaii are not so big as the rats here. They're only about this big, the body.
Prabhupāda: Every house there is rats?
Devotee (2): Not every house, no.
Prabhupāda: At least Advaita Bhavan has got.
Devotee (2): They were some but they cleaned them out. They got rid of them. I'm not sure rats actually are poisoned.
Devotee (3): (unintelligible)
Devotee (2): We were getting a cow but we joined ISKCON just before we got the cow. We were going to get one for four hundred dollars. It was giving sixteen quarts a day and had a calf.
Prabhupāda: Sixteen quarts?
Devotee (2): A day, yes. There was a small calf also.
Prabhupāda: There must be grazing ground for cows. Then there is no problem.
Devotee (2): There was a grazing ground. The lawn must grow.
Prabhupāda: What is that? Are they cutting? These are not important thing. (end)
