The Fantastic Farmer

Gopher Trouble

Run time: 10 minutes, 57 seconds.

Gumby goes to Farmer Glenn's Ranch to help Pokey. His crops are not growing properly, so Gumby helps in every way he can and finally divides himself into a lot of Gumby's, which go over the fields with many different farm machines. It turns out that the wild growth of the crops is the result of a gopher who feeds his large, hungry family, and injects the roots of corn plants with a chemical that makes them grow into giant ears and roots. Gumby solves the problem by inventing a machine that makes tasty roots out of weeds.
