In Videos: Tex Avery's 'The Farm of Tomorrow' (1954)

The Farm of Tomorrow, an animated short directed by famed animator Tex Avery, shares 1954's predictions of the future of farming—mostly involving strange crossbreeding pairs. Has the future delivered chickens crossbred with centipedes (for more drumsticks), cows crossbred with beavers (for built-in fly swatters), or ducks crossbred with bananas (for ease of skin peeling)? Not yet. Those geneticists better get crackin'. Watch the video after the jump.

The "... of Tomorrow" series was always my favorite Tex Avery stuff.

I love how he always *had* to sneak in a ladies leg anyway he could.
