Tom & Jerry Comics #141

Spike and Tyke run a bone bank in their yard, offering to guard bones for neighborhood dogs in exchange for a share of the haul—five bones in, one bone out. But when a clever kitten grows tired of the constant dog traffic, she hatches a plan to disrupt the operation.

Flip and Dip turn an old barrel into a makeshift ferry, hoping to ferry their friends across the river—only to find their business is a flop when everyone just swims or flies. But when Pop’s carelessness gives the barrel a new purpose, the twins discover a surprisingly profitable twist.

Charlie Coyote sets up a fake geyser counter to trick Wuff the Prairie Dog and Sammy Squirrel into following him into the desert, claiming it can detect hidden geysers—though his real plan is far less about geology and far more about outsmarting his rivals. With a crowd of tough customers watching, the scheme unfolds in a desert showdown of wits, where the line between treasure and trickery starts to blur.
