There's a bit too much farmyard humour in this rather dull wartime cartoon. We head to the outdoors where the locals are maximising their efforts for the war - one cow even produced 5,000 quarts of milk! A woodpecker destined to be a riveter at Lockheed - assuming he doesn't fall foul of a cat first ... . The turkeys are all well fed - though with the oven looming at 20lbs, they quickly discover the delights of a diet! Turtle eggs. Might they be used for the military too? A jeep? You get the drift. Just about ever critter has a role to play for victory, and I'm sure it did it's job cheering the folks in the drive-in on a Saturday night who also just prayed for a "convenient" black-out, too! It's OK, but I"m, with the caterpillars.
