This Oscar-winning short tells of a bull who preferred to sit under trees and smell flowers to clashing horns with his fellow animals.

The cut scene after Jerry hitting Tom with the board 4 times was cut from the 1950 reissue print for a war bond joke, and the original footage is currently considered "lost" due to the negatives destroyed in the 1978 George Eastman House fire.

Adapted by the book by Sheldon Wasserman." Bizarrely minimal short that is essentially a series of animated, silly puns and jokes based on the shapes of numerals, intercut with psychedelic, kaleidoscopic transitions and horn-based go-go music. The look was clearly inspired by ROWAN & MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN (but maybe without the laughs).

A mad scientist invented a new weapon of mass destruction and offered it to the god of war. The animation was shot in the genre of political satire.
