'...did the Enterprise's tractor beam ever pull out a cow stuck in a drain [ditch]? " Yep! It was the beginning two-parter for the "Next Generation" series. "Journey to Farpoint"
But the "cow" was a space traveling entity as big as a city, and the ditch was a planetary gravity well.
Scotty used the transporter beam for the Humpbacks, not the tractor beam.
