Forbes Irrigation League formed to push Goolagong schemes

A well attended Forbes district meeting organized by the Graziers' Association formed the Forbes Irrigation League to back the Goolagong Irrigation and Development League. The group aims to advance the Goolagong-Kangarooby Creek scheme and extend the Lachlan irrigation district toward Forbes, possibly linking with the Jemalong Wylde’s Plains project. A deputation will meet Major Raid and other ministers to press for diversions along the Lachlan River, while an executive committee led by E J C Speck will drive the campaign.
