A Saturday meeting of Freshwater farmers seeks to advance a local mill proposal amid debate over Bailey Creek land terms. Delegates plan to present to Brisbane officials, arguing Freshwater land is already improved and more suited, with potential district prosperity from a harbor and nearby railway.

Discussion at a Saturday meeting centred on building a sugar mill at Freshwater. Farmers reported high yields and a farmer already growing for another mill earned 50 tog to the acre. A Bailey's Creek socialistic plan could harm small farmers and delay the project. Cairns MP McCormack pledged support, while Earl’s talks with authorities await result. If the government pushes new ideas, Freshwater’s mill may be frustrated, though locals still aim for eventual progress and district prosperity.
