Daroobalgie industry and rail woes in Forbes district
The Forbes district report notes high wages for unskilled labor at Daroobalgie where strong lads are in demand, while the rabbit trade stalls due to export unsettlements. Saw mill operations drive power and timber use for new Australian trade branches. The smooth plant impresses visitors with quiet efficiency and many skins drying on site. Train service delays disrupt war work. Trailway Commissioners slow to adjust schedules for Forbes Condobolin trains, causing early departures and late returns for workers. The community hopes officials fix the service promptly.
