Champion, the Wonder Horse: Salted Ground
Prospectors are secretly 'salting' the ground by firing small quantities of gold-dust into the soil, to foot investors into thinking the area is rich in gold. Ricky discovers the plot but is overpowered by the outlaws. Champion and Rebel come to the rescue and after a thrilling struggle the criminals are taken off to the sheriff.
