Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Moving out of their standard small-town surroundings, the Our Gang kids visit the farm owned by the uncle of Gang member Mickey (Robert Blake). Here the youngsters attempt to milk a cow by placing two bottles under the udders and hoping that nature takes its course. If this weren't hilarious enough, the kids feed Mexican jumping beans to the chickens, are chased by an ornery mule, and end up stuck in a hay-baling machine. Once again, a lot of potentially funny material is laid low by misfire direction and unconvincing performances -- hallmarks of the later MGM Our Gang one-reelers. Farm Hands was originally released on June 19, 1943.
