George Tackles the Land (1954)
DirectorHerk Harvey
Plot
George Johnson and his wife, Annabelle, have moved to the farm to live what George terms "the good life." We discover that George has several unusual ideas on how a farmer can "clean-up" by "throwing a few seeds around" for "it's natural for things to grow." Annabelle's kitchen garden proves a success, but George's first corn crop produces only nubbins. George then meets an elfin character, Mr. N (played by Billy Barty of Hollywood) who shows George the way modern fertilizers are utilized in farming whether in the citrus groves of Florida, peach orchards of Georgia, winter and summer pastures, tobacco land of the Carolinas, cotton in the southland, and wheatlands of Kansas.
