Minister Comments on Royal Commission Report on Lime
A government note analyzes lime use and lime–superphosphate trials. It cites Dr Teakle's 1941–44 Boyup Brook experiments showing no yield advantage from lime alone and notes higher yields with lime–superphosphate. Despite numerous studies, enthusiasm for lime remains mixed, with plans for further large-scale field trials on farmers’ properties.

Substitute for Superphosphate Trials and Lime Deposits
A study notes diminishing imported superphosphate and seeks substitutes using rock phosphate. Dr Dunne led experiments across 4 000 plots over several years, while lime as a fertiliser has arisen since 1916 with deposits opened for farming and cement needs, including the Lake Clifton deposit west of Pin Jarra containing about 16 million tons.

A train inspector stressed the accident’s seriousness and noted poor visibility due to heavy scrub needing removal by the Railway Department or Dardanup Road Board.
