Milk and Money

Milk and Money is a 1936 Looney Tunes short directed by Tex Avery.
== Title ==
The title refers to both the concept of "milk and honey" about "prosperity and abundance", as well as the concept of "milk money"; about a 'non-discretionary responsibility'.
== Plot ==
Porky's father is going to lose his farm. Porky goes to town riding his horse. He is working a milk route and is warned if he breaks a single bottle he will be fired. As he is delivering the milk, cats follow him, draining the bottles. Hank Horsefly follows them into town. He stings Dobbin the horse, who falls and breaks several bottles. They find themselves near a horse race, and enter it by mistake; the horse that is in the race is merely plodding along until it gets stung again. Porky wins the ten thousand dollars from the race and drives home in a limo.
== Censorship ==
* Cartoon Network airings of this short removed a small scene of black stable hands leading the horses to the start of the race, much like "Porky's Prize Pony".
== Notes ==
* This cartoon features the debut of the background of Looney Tunes that would be used until 1942.
* At the end, When Mr. Viper is knocked out, he appears directly under the "That's All Folks" script as it writes itself. The script in this cartoon retains the old design used prior to "Porky's Poultry Plant" instead of the newer design used from the previous Looney Tunes cartoon, "Porky's Moving Day".
* While this is the first Looney Tunes short in the 1936–37 season, the ending card is from the 1935–36 season. The 1936-37 ending titles would start with "Little Beau Porky".
* Lobby card number: LT-1
