The counting of the chickens may be a scene that deals with inflation in "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, the incident takes place in the beloved 1939 film version but not the original 1900 book edition of "The Wizard of Oz." It occurs in the opening scene when Uncle Henry and Aunt Em count the chickens and keep getting interrupted by Dorothy and her pet dog Toto. Uncle Henry and Aunt Em appear to be concerned about greater numbers, which may be the result of inflation requiring more because of declining values and worth.
