Jim Crack corn and I don't care Jimmy crack corn and I don't care Jimmy crack corn and I don't care Old Mass has gone away oh, you like that old tune, Nipper? I kinda, kinda thought you would. What do you want? Another one? Well, let me see now. Let me see here. Howdy, Jody. Nice evening. Oh, well, evening, Mr. Foot. Jody, I'll come right to it. You know how I run my hauling business, honest and fair. Take good care of my mules and I won't hire no bad skinners. So you're going to put a wagon in the Mercantile Company's race to Santa Fe and try to win that contract? Yeah, I need that contract to stay in business. Now, you've made the run to Santa Fe seven days faster than any other skinner. Yeah, I've been getting good offers all day too. I see. Well, I don't know what your secret is, but you'll win for the man that hires you. I know I can't afford to pay you what the others will pay you, so I. Ah, just a minute, Mr. Footer. You can pay me easy enough and I'd rather skin your mules than anybody else's work. Serious, Mr. Foote, I've been aiming to talk to you for some time. I might as well come Right. Out with it. Your daughter Emmy and me is in love. You say we can be married. And me and Nipper here will skin your mules into Santa Fe eight days better than anybody else. Why you marry my daughter? You a mule skinner? Well, you was a skinner before you got your own rig. Why, you young whippersnapper. You let me catch you hanging around Emmy, and I'll take the black snake to you and just forget about driving my wagon. I'll drive it myself. Of all the God blame things I ever heard of. Well, Nipper, I figured he'd say that. That's just why I've been afraid to. Jody. Jody, I heard everything. I. I don't know what to say. Well, why not just say I love you, Jody. I love you, Jody. Ah, there. That's all we need. I'll figure out some way. Don't you fret, darling. Oh, no, you. You'll never crack a whip over a span of my mules again. Emmy, come here. Father, I love Joe. I'm gonna. Now then, I'm pulling my mercantile load out of Council Grove tomorrow. And Emmy, you're a going. Oh. Oh, you who. What'd you stop for, Dad? I mean, this here is Wakaroosa Point. Them there is Wakaroosa Creek and Ottaway Creek. That ridge between them is called the Narrow. That's where we're supposed to cross. And why don't we cross? Looks easy to me. Cause that stuff you see ain't very solid ground. That's black mud. I'm giving these here rat tails a breather. Then I'm going to send them at the narrows of Trotting. That way. Maybe we'll get across without bogging down. Oh, Father, you shouldn't have been so obstinate. You should have let Jody Michaels drive for you. I told you not to mention that varmint's name. Now sit back. Here we go. Get up, you. Get in there. Up you get your. Hey, you. Hang on. Hang on, daughter. Here comes the mut. Get up there. Get on. Get up. My. Hey, you. Hey, you rattail sons of sick. Get going there. Well, God bless your ugly hide. Get up there. Boom. Dad burned wheat. Oh, we come nigh to make you another 20ft. Why, the leaders are on hard ground and them vermins quit pulling, not them other sick. It might as well be 20 miles as well as 20ft. Hey, get up there. Get up. Oh, God. Charnard, we got a balky mule now. Look at that. That off leaders are laying down. Jenny. Jenny, get up there. Get up you, Jenny. Get up there. Well, howdy, Mr. Foot. Hi, Emmy. You turn that horse around and get going. Get that dog out of here, too. I reckon not, Mr. Foot. The prairie's free. You stuck, huh? Of course we ain't stuck. Cooling off the mule's feet in the mud. Oh, it's a good idea. Bulky mule still keeping old Jenny in the lead team ought to make a wheeler out of her. I'll harness my teams like. I won't. Now, get. I got work to do. I reckon you'll never get them going with Jenny laying down. No, nobody else will either. Any good mule skinner knows the thing to do is to camp the night, let him rest, and then they'll be. Oh, I don't know about that. You'll never get the contract if you do that. Now, I mind. One time I was skinning this y. Shut up, Father. Now you're being very unreasonable and impolite. Jody can help you get that contract. Nobody can make a balky mule work without plenty of rest first. Maybe, maybe not. Well, how do you get Jenny to her feet, that is, without cutting her to ribbons? Oh, different ways. Don't believe you can. Maybe not. Well, Emmy, it's been nice running into you. I'll see you in Santa Fe, honey. Hey, just a minute. Wait a minute, Joe. Don't be such a carnal. Hurry. I ain't hurrying. Just keep moving. All us keep moving. Whether I'm straddling a horse or skinning mules. You reckon you could get this wagon moving and keep it moving? I reckon. Well, what'll it cost me? Your daughter, like I said. By you, what? An attorney. Oh, that's enough, Father. One of these days I'm gonna marry Jody whether you say yes or no. Don't you talk. Well, I gave up. I'm whipped. Just plain work. Well, that's fair enough, Father. Why, you. Well, come on. Let's get back there and tie this horse to the tailgate and climb up on the sleep, huh? Ain't you going to get that mule up first? Nope. After. You can't get a lead mule up sitting back on the wagon seat. Oh, yes, we can. Come on, Judy honey. Up you go now. Oh, Jody. Dad. Busted. Quit that spooning and pick up them ribbons. We're half a day behind. Now, don't worry. We'll be in Santa Fe quicker than I ever made it before. Hang on, Father. Why, you don't. You ready, nipper? Atta boy. Good. Now, we'll wait till I get these ribbons all set in hand. There we are now. We're whipped so. All right, Jenny. First Nipper go get her, boy. Get up back, Jenny. Come on, get up. And a good boy. Nipper bite her heel. That's a boy. Hey, you rat tail mud hogs. Get up there. Look at that dog. She better get up or old Nipper, old fighter. Dern legal she did get up. Why you dad burned so and so. So that's your secret. It ain't you gets that mule up. It's your dog. That ain't all. Old Nipper. Keep them leaders heels all the way to Santa Fe. And keep them mules stepping like you never see before. Without Nipper, I couldn't make no record. Here we go now. Get up out of there. Come on, you mud liver son of thing. Get up out. Get up and up and out of there. Emmy. Hey, Emmy, you reckon you got your guitar handy, honey? It's right here behind your seat. Why, darling, why, you better start to play, honey.

Ken Carson, June Foray, Cliff Clark and Earl Keane. Friends, what is the most important thing in caring for a dog? Well, some people say proper training, others proper feeding. And still others love and affection. Or maybe something entirely different. Well, I'm not going to take sides. I think they're all important. It seems to me our chief concern should be to see that our dogs get all of these in proper proportion. I don't have to tell you how to train your dog or how to show your affection for him. And I hope you know how to feed him. But just in case there is someone who doesn't know about Red Heart three flavored dog food, let me say this. Red Heart is a well balanced dog food that contains all the vitamins, minerals and other food essentials a dog needs every day to build and maintain a healthy, normal body. It is federally inspected, fresh, moist meat and wholesome meat byproducts. Dogs get what they need from Red Heart and dogs like Red Heart too. Yeah, you bet. Says Lassie. She knows Rudd feeds her Red Heart exclusively and she likes all three Red Heart flavors. Tell us what they are, Lassie. That's the A diet beef flavor, the B diet fish flavor and the C diet cheese flavor. No chance that any dog will tire of his food. When you have all three wonderful Red Heart diets on hand, feed them to your dog in rotation. He will reward you with a strong, healthy body and a fine glossy coat. He'll be a healthy, happy dog you can be proud of. Lassie is a living example of this and Lassie speaks for Red Heart. All three wonderful flavors. Be sure to be with us next week, friends. Lassie is presented each week at the same time by John Morrell and company, makers of three flavored Red Heart, the taste test food that your dog will enjoy, the health tested food that will keep him in shape. Lassie appeared by arrangement with Metro Goldwyn Mayer, who invites you to see their production of Battlegrounds. Starring Van Johnson, John Hodiak Ricardo Montalban and George Murphy. The Lassie show is produced and transcribed in Hollywood by Frank Ferran, directed by Harry Stewart, story by Hobart Donovan. This is Charles Lyon.
