Porky's Spring Planting is a 1938 Looney Tunes short directed by Frank Tashlin.

Plot[]

Farmer Porky and his dog Streamline plant vegetable seeds, especially corn. When the crops are ripe, a hen starts selling tickets to the rest of the chickens, turning the garden into a cafeteria. Before everything is eaten, Porky makes a deal with them, agreeing to plant a separate garden of corn for them.

Caricatures[]

Al Pearce - Porky quotes his character Elmer Blurt's characteristic phrase, "I hope, I hope, I hope."
Stan Laurel - the dog whimpers like him.
Tony Labriola - "Oh, yeah."

Notes[]

This cartoon is the first to use the 1938-41 Looney Tunes ending theme, this time fixing the music so there was no pause after Porky Pig signed out with his "Th-th-th-that's all folks!"
Porky Pig's menu is nailed to the fence by a Schlesinger-brand nail.
