Added DiffLines:

The cartoon starts with a happy gnome waking up his fellow villagers to worship the sun and get to work making good and wholesome sunshine milk to spread happiness across the land. Unfortunately, they're also neighbours to an evil colony of gnomes who hate anything happy or sunny. When one of them tries attacking a gnome making his delivery rounds, he throws a bottle of sunshine milk at him, which makes part of his coat turn bright with happiness. He flees back to his village and buries it, and he rings the gong for the village to begin an attack on the happy gnomes with bug sprayers armed with toxic fumes. The happy gnomes immediately fight back and bombard them and their land with their sunshine milk, turning their desolate land beautiful and making them all happy and good.
