Hermansberg Mission trials cattle scheme in Central Australia
The Hermansberg Mission in Central Australia promotes pastoral schemes among Indigenous communities. Five full blooded Malive pastoralists trucked 61 head of cattle to Adelaide, under a board of management that limits holdings to 260 per member to avoid monopoly. The venture, though with some failures, shows promise as communities move toward shared property and organised farming amid broader social change.

France may see nearly double its poor previous year, and American crops look strong with abundant export prospects despite a drought. Canada’s sowing holds steady, while Dominion output should match last year. In a broader reflection, a religious meditation links global hardship to forgiveness and divine guidance.
