Why is there a cow on the Elmer's glue bottle?

It isn't a cow, it's a bull named Elmer, husband of Borden's Elsie the cow. Some glues are made from rendered cows hooves (as are gelatin products like Jel-O), leading some people to joke about the cow on the Elmer's bottle being representative of its ingredients. In an episode of The Simpsons, vegetarian Lisa hallucinated that the cow on her glue bottle accused her with: "You won't eat my meat, but you glue with my feet."

Why doesn't glue stick to inside of the glue bottle?

Another great and puzzling question. Why doesn't glue stick inside of the glue bottle. Glue on paper: As the glue connects with oxygen it becomes sticky and if left to dry in this oxygen it becomes hard and keeps multiple things together. Glue inside the bottle: Glue doesn't stick inside the bottle because the chemicals within the glue is triggered by oxygen (what we breathe) so when the glue bottle is opened it triggers the chemicals to make it sticky. That's why if a bottle if left out with no cap the glue becomes quite hard. Glue won't completely stick unless it's dried, and because inside the bottle, the glue is still air locked in and not dried, it doesn't stick.

Why does glue not stick to the bottle?

Glue doesn't stick to the bottle because, in order for glue to become sticky it has to dry. There's no air circulation in a closed bottle so glue can't dry. If you're thinking, "But what if I leave the glue bottle open! Why doesn't it dry?" It's because there is a lot of glue in the bottle. Not just a thin layer. Just like when you're glueing something and you're not supposed to use that much glue because it won't dry.
