It cites the Federal and State-level efforts, calls for an immediate investigation into new storage and elevator schemes, and notes delays in compensation for wheat turned into government pools. The piece discusses the Cooperative Grain and Transfer Company funding, and mentions upcoming association meetings and the 1910 conference agenda.

Captain Roy King lands at Forbes after long flight
Captain Roy King arrived at Forbes amid heavy rain and weather delays from Melbourne to Brisbane. The landing followed a circuitous flight marked by mechanical trouble, electrical posts damaged at Albury, and a paddock landing before proceeding to Forbes. King named Larkin Sopwith Aviation as the company and said Forbes could host the first Melbourne Brisbane air service stop, with Forbes likely the initial halt on a Sydney to Brisbane route.
