“Lambs versus Wolfingham!”

In "Lambs versus Wolfingham!", Superman arrives in the struggling Eden farming community, where the ominous Wilbur Wolfingham has been preying on desperate farmers with hollow promises and fake checks. With the town already battered by drought, storms, and pests, Wolfingham's latest scheme targets the community's last hope—a supposedly worthless oil well—leaving the farmers desperate and disillusioned. Written by Don C. Cameron and illustrated by Ira Yarbrough, with inks by George Roussos, the story unfolds under Wayne Boring’s cover art and Stan Kaye’s inks.

Wilbur Wolfingham shows up in the Eden farming community, which has been beset by drought, tornadoes and insect infestation, and offers nothing but doom and gloom for the future. As a gesture of "good will," he offers to buy out the farmers' land and stock at whatever price they deem fair, giving the people worthless checks. When Superman enters the scene, the farmers have been bilked further by Wolfingham over the community's "worthless" oil well.
