Clark's teacher Edwin Sayers is left a ranch out West, and decides to retire and become a rancher. As he leaves he invites all the youngsters in his class to come and visit him. During the next vacation they pile onto a train, but no one has told Sayers, so Superboy flies on ahead to give warning. From the air he sees that the Sayers ranch is just a tumbledown shack and scrub land. He does some serious landscaping, fashioning a stetson shaped ranch house and bringing in a herd of wild horses for the kids. He also foils a plot by next door rancher Ben Torpe to kill Sayers and acquire his land.
