Numerous allotments and dwellings in the Carns area are offered with terms including deposits and weekly payments. Properties include two-story houses, brick structures, and hotels on Water Street, Esplanade, and nearby streets. Listings describe recent repairs, painted exteriors, and various lot sizes up to one acre.
About fifty shareholders attended the annual meeting held at Yungaburra on Saturday. The chairman, EH Peale, noted a strong half year despite a recent strike and praised staff loyalty while detailing plans for a new factory at Millaa Millaa and negotiations for Malanda and Ravenshore facilities. Directors discussed cash flow, branch factories, port and shipping arrangements, and ongoing charitable donations.
The meeting centers on Malanda factory payments, obsolete specifications, and criticism of Waugh and Josephson. Chairman defends not sharing sensitive data, while Bromfield accuses officials of mismanagement and calls for expert input on local water power. Discussions include a proposed pig farm plant and plans to use Malanda Falls for power.
