A frenetic, slapstick-driven cartoon short where Donald Duck's incompetence with logging and dynamite creates escalating physical comedy and chase sequences.

Hobo Donald steals dinner off Pegleg Pete's table. Pete gives Donald a stick of dynamite. Then he puts Donald to work chopping trees. To say Donald is an inept lumberjack is understating the case. After several mishaps, Pete/Pierre chases Donald on railroad handcars.
