"Big City University" joke

1 wo farmers were discussing their sons' progress in the big city university. Ezra said, "I don't rightly understand them degrees the boys are workin' fer. Do you, Cy?"
"Reckon so," replied Cy, modestly. "First one they get is called a B. S. And you know what that means."
Being a man of the world, Ezra knew.
Cy went on: "Well, sir, they work a little harder and they get this here M. S. That means More of the Same."
Ezra nodded.
"Then comes the hard part. They study night and day, put in years of readin', write all kinds of papers and then, if they're lucky, they get the highest one of' em all. The Ph. D."
"And what does that stand fer?" asked Ezra.
"Piled Higher and Deeper."
