A neighboring rancher, Andy, is good friends with Ben, but his son (Todd) wants to sell their land for mining operations which will spoil the water rights agreement that Andy and Ben made years ago.
Reviews:
"Though they were once friends, it seems Adam and Todd McMurrin have grown out of that phase in their lives and become rivals for the land. Mr. McMurren and Ben Cartwright have always been friends, but it's time to hand the reins over to Todd. The problem is, Todd is letting the wrong people influence him. He's in love with a decent girl who has a father that is not decent. Her father does several things to prove himself not to be the father of any girl.
I think the sulfur bath for cows is the most interesting thing. We see other westerns tackle this concept, but in this episode it's Ben's suddenly unique idea. He got the idea from a flea bath that Hoss was giving...go figure! Who knew that Ben was the first to think of it..." Written by mitchrmp on IMDb.com
"A few familiar character players are in this Bonanza episode which has a strain put on the relationship of Lorne Greene and Rhys Williams, neighboring ranchers and long time friends. That's because Williams has turned the running of his ranch over to son Don Dubbins. And Dubbins has come under the influence of mining magnate Robert F. Simon and he's selling a piece of land of his where the Cartwrights have water rights. The influence is pretty substantial when it involves the pretty Merry Anders who Dubbins is courting.
But it gets real bad when some Cartwright cattle come down with plague. Lorne Greene is giving the cattle sulfur baths as a preventive, but the others won't listen.
Dubbins both on the big screen and small played callow youths until he was well in the upper 20s. I'm not sure how the climax and what happens there would have led to some rather more bitter feelings than shown.
Still the cast and guests perform well." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com
