Forbes P P Board notes and district concerns
The Forbes P P Board met with directors Wallace Hunter and others present. The Aerodrome site dispute with the Department of Lands and the decision to grant land was discussed. A case about illegally branding sheep was clarified, focusing on a blue dot brand rather than a raddle mark. Prosecutions for failing to destroy rabbits were decided. The Board refused to divide riding districts and granted permit inspector appointments. Sheep and livestock totals for multiple districts were reported, noting declines in certain species and the impact of wool prices on cattle.
