GENE, AIN,A6T WE GONNA STOP AND EAT PRETTY SOON?

NO, NOT TILL WE GET TO GRANGEVILLE.

AW, WHAT,A6S THE BIG HURRY?

I WANT TO SEE HOW MANY HORSES I CAN SELL

TO THOSE GRANGEVILLE RANCHERS.

WE DID PRETTY WE_I_.L THERE LAST YEAR, DIDN,A6T WE?

YEAH, WE DONE ALL RIGHT,

BUT EVERY TIME WE HIT LEATHER FOR THAT BURG,

I GET GYPPED OUT OF A MEAL.

WELL, YOU,A6RE ABOUT 10 MEALS AHEAD, ANYHOW.

KINDA SWITCHll_\j,A6 YOUR BUSINESS FAST, AIN,A6T YOU, EZRA?

THEY,A6RE NOT USIN' HORSES ANYMORE.

[TRACTOR ENGINE STARTS]

AND THAT,A6S THE REASON.

WELL, MR. REGAN, NOW WHAT DO YOU THINK OF IT?

SURE GOT A LOT OF POWER, THORNTON.

AH, THERE,A6S NOTHING LIKE IT, MR. REGAN.

THIS IS A BUY YOU,A6LL NEVER REGRET.

THAT TRACTOR WILL PAY FOR ITSELF IN ONE SEASON.

NOW, IF YOU,A6LL JUST STEP THIS WAY, MR. REGAN,

WE,A6LL HAVE THE CONTRACTS FIXED UP IN A JIFFY.

GOOD AFTERNOON, MR. THORNTON.

HELLO, SALLY. NICE DAY, lSN,A6T IT?

YOU COULD MAKE IT A PERFECT DAY

IF YOU,A6D SIGN THAT CONTRACT WITH MY STATION.

NO, THANKS. I,A6M DOING WELL ENOUGH

WITHOUT THE HELP OF A RADIO PROGRAM.

BUT THAT,A6S WHERE YOU,A6RE WRONG.

I BET A RADIO PROGRAM WOULD DOUBLE YOUR SALES.

MAYBE IT WOULD, BUT UNFORTUNATELY,

YOUR STATION HASN,A6T ANYTHING TO OFFER.

[G REY MARE PLAYING]

SALLY, EVEN A FARMER WOULDN,A6T LISTEN TO YOUR PROGRAMS.

AND WHAT,A6S WRONG WITH OUR PROGRAMS?

EVERYTHING. YOU,A6VE GOT NOTHING TO SELL,

NO PERSONALITIES, NO ACTS.

YOU,A6RE AS ABOUT AS UP-TO-DATE AS THAT HORSE TRADER.

Sally: MR. AUTRY? MR. AUTRY?

MAY I SEE YOU FOR JUST A MOMENT?

L,A6M SALLY DAWSON, MANAGER OF RADIO STATION K.L.D.

WHY, I,A6M MIGHTY HAPPY TO KNOW YOU, MISS DAWSON.

I JUST HEARD WHAT YOU CALL A SAMPLE,

AND I THINK YOU,A6RE GRAND.

IN FACT, I,A6D LIKE TO SIGN YOU UP

FOR A SERIES OF BROADCASTS.

YOU,A6D LIKE TO WHAT?

DON ,A6T YOU U N DERSTAN D?

L,A6D LIKE TO SIGN YOU FOR A RADIO PROGRAM.

WELL, HEY, HOW ABOUT ME?

OH, THE CONTRACT WOULD INCLUDE

THE WHOLE TROUPE, OF COURSE.

WELL, I,A6M SORRY, BUT, YOU SEE,

WE,A6RE NOT RADIO ENTERTAINERS,

WE,A6RE JUST PLAIN HORSE TRADERS.

WELL, IT AIN,A_ NOTHIN,A6 TO TRY.

L,A6M CONVINCED OUR LISTENERS

WOULD SIMPLY SWAMP YOU WITH FAN MAIL.

L,A6M SORRY, MA'AM, BUT, UH,

I,A6VE GOT ONE BUSINESS TO TAKE CARE OF ALREADY.

BUT DON,A6T YOU REALIZE

YOU,A6LL MAKE MUCH MORE MONEY BROADCASTING?

[TRACTOR APPROACHING]

SHUT OFF THAT MACHINE!

STOP IT, YOU IDIOT!

TAKE ,A6EM TO THE CORRAL, FROG, AND GET READY FOR THE SHOW.

I GUESS THE DANGER,A6S ABOUT OVER.

THEY SEEM TO BE GETTING IT UNDER CONTROL.

WELL, MR. HADLEY, SATISFIED WITH OUR DEMONSTRATION?

HUH? OH. THE DEMONSTRATION.

YEAH.

THAT,A6S A MIGHTY POWERFUL TRACTOR, ALL RIGHT.

HUH. SURE DID RAISE CAIN WITH THAT HERD.

THAT JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU WHAT A TRACTOR CAN DO.

WHY, EVEN A WHOLE HERD OF HORSES

CAN,A6T STAND UP AGAINST IT.

THAT TRACTOR WASN,A6T SCARED, WAS IT?

NO, BUT I WAS.

NOW, REALLY, YOU CAN,A6T GET ALONG WITHOUT A TRACTOR.

BUT I BEEN DOIN,A6 IT FOR 30 YEARS.

AUTRY,A6S HORSES GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.

JOHNNIE, YOU ALL RIGHT?

SURE, SIS. THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN.

I DON,A6T KNOW HOW TO THANK YOU. YOU WERE SPLENDID.

THAT,A6S ALL RIGHT. I,A6M GLAD I COULD BE OF SOME HELP.

AND NQW, IF YOU,A6LL PERMIT ME, I,A6D LIKE TO HELP YOU.

ABOUT THAT RADIO PROGRAM--

OH, I DON,A6T THINK I,A6D BE ANY GOOD

AT SELLIN,A6 COFFEE ON THE AIR.

NO, BUT YOU,A6D DO MIGHTY WELL SELLING TRACTORS.

TRACTORS? YES.

YOU,A6D BE SINGING AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR MAMMOTH TRACTORS.

BUT, YOU SEE, I,A6M KNOWN AS A HORSE TRADER IN THIS COUNTRY.

L,A6M JUST OLD-FASHIONED ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THAT

HORSES ARE BETTER FOR THESE RANCHERS THAN TRACTORS.

BUT lT,A6S A SHAME TO WASTE YOUR TALENT SELLING HORSES

WHEN YOU COULD PUT IT TO SO MUCH BETTER ADVANTAGE.

IT WOULDN,A6T BE WASTED IF YOU,A6D COME TO THE SHOW TONIGHT.

I DON,A6T MIND TELLING YOU I,A6M TERRIBLY DISAPPOINTED.

BUT I,A6LL COME.

GOOD-BYE. BYE.

COME ON, JOHNNIE. OK, SIS.

QUIET.

QUIET! CAN,A6T YOU SEE WE,A6RE ON THE AIR?

DON,A6T PAY ANY ATTENTION TO HIM; JUST TAKE THE STUFF OUT.

WHAT IS THIS?

MISS DAWSQN, I TOLD YOU THAT IF I DIDN,A6T GET MY MONEY

THAT I,A6D HAVE TO REMOVE THIS EQUIPMENT.

IF YOU,A6LL ONLY HAVE A LITTLE PATIENCE, I,A6M SURE--

IT SEEMS TO ME, MISS DAWSON,

THAT I,A6VE HAD PATIENCE ENOUGH.

AND, ANYWAY, WHY PROLONG THE AGONY?

WHY, YOU OLD SKINFLINT.

L,A6VE INVESTED EVERY PENNY I OWN IN THIS STATION,

AND YOU CAN,A6T TAKE IT AWAY.

YES, WELL, THIS RADIO STATION

CAN NEVER BE RUN ON A PROFITABLE BASIS.

YOU,A6RE WRONG, MR. TERWILLIGER.

MAMMOTH TRACTORS HAVE JUST AGREED TO SIGN UP FOR A PROGRAM.

A BIG CONTRACT.

GEE, SIS, YOU FINALLY HOOKED THORNTON.

THAT,A6S SWELL.

OOH, THAT,A6S MARVELOUS!

THAT IS, IF lT,A6S TRUE.

OF COURSE, lT,A6S TRUE.

WELL, YOU,A6LL HAVE TO SHOW ME.

AND THAT,A6S JUST WHAT WE,A6RE GOING TO DO.

SALLY, GET THORNTON ON THE PHONE.

MAKE HIM COME THROUGH WITH AN ADVANCE PAYMENT.

L,A6LL STOP THIS WOLF

FROM BARKING AT OUR HEELS.

YES.

289J, PLEASE.

THAT ACCOUNT OUGHT TO PUT THIS STATION RIGHT ON ITS FEET.

HEH. THERE,A6S NO STOPPING US NOW, SALLY.

HELLO? HELLO, MR. THORNTON?

THIS IS SALLY DAWSON.

DO YOU STILL WANT TO SIGN UP

FOR THAT SERIES OF BROADCASTS WITH GENE AUTRY?

FINE. GET THE CONTRACTS READY, THEN.

AND--AND COULD I HAVE A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS IN ADVANCE

FOR OUR PAYMENTS ON THE, UM--

WHY, WHAT,A6S THE MATTER?

YOU CAN,A6T TAKE THESE TRACTORS.

WELL, NOW, PLEASE UNDERSTAND.

I DON,A6T WANT TO TAKE THOSE TRACTORS.

THEN, WHAT,A6S THEM PAPERS FOR?

AFTER ALL, THIS IS A FINANCE COMPANY--

I DON,A6T CARE WHAT THIS IS!

THORNTON ASSURED ME--

WE BOUGHT HIS CONTRACTS,

AND WE,A6RE THE LEGAL OWNERS OF THOSE TRACTORS.

YOU AND THORN'l_'_ON ARE IN CAHOOTS, THAT,A6S WHAT!

OH, THERE,A6S NO USE GETTING ANGRY, GENTLEMEN.

THERE,A6S NOTHING I CAN DO.

IF YOU WEREN,A6T SO BITTER AGAINST TRACTORS,

I COULD HAVE YOU BROADCAST FOR THEM.

THEY,A6D PAY YOU MUCH MORE MONEY--

I DON,A6T CARE WHAT THEY PAY.

THAT,A6S ONE PRODUCT I'LL NEVER BROADCAST FOR.

NOW, SALLY, YOU WOULDN,A6T WANT TO DO ANYTHING

I FELT WAS WRONG, WOULD YOU?

NO MORE BROADCASTS?

WELL, THAT,A6S HARDLY FAIR TO ME.

PERHAPS YOU,A6VE FORGOTTEN THAT I HAVE A CONTRACT WITH K.L.D.?
