Plot[]
A severe drought is withering the crops on Porky's family's farm, and their animals demand feed. Porky's father sends him to the store to buy feed for their animals. When Porky gets to the store, a traveling salesman is selling pills that can create different kinds of weather. Porky buys those instead of the feed. When he gets home, his father gets mad and throws the pills, which spill all over. The animals gobble up the pills and "weather" the consequences, such as lightning, fog, or cyclones. Porky is finally able to explain the situation to his father, and they look for the pills. Porky spies a rain pill, but before he can grab it a duck snaps it up. Luckily, the duck spits the pill high into the sky, where it explodes into a thundercloud. The rain begins to fall, and the farm is saved.
