McCallum Smith Memorial Ponds Opening Planned
Plans for the trout ponds at Pemberton near opening day are at hand with Mr. Kitson to present Government figures. Trout societies across the state show strong interest with 10,000 rainbow trout ova secured so far. Some fish lacked eggs and others were under capacity, risking fry yield this year though brood stock grows for a full quota next year.

The Use of Australian Man Power and War Strains

It references figures and discourse from the era, including public pleas to sustain industry and revenue while supporting national defense.
