Northern Territory Explorer's India Ink Vision Unveiled

Captain Barclay reports on Australian inland exploration from Oodnadatta to Darwin via overland routes and river valleys. He notes numerous artesian bore tests on Browne Downs reaching water at depth, advocates for a railway line to Anthony’s Lagoon, and argues Northern Territory readiness to support a growing population with water, transport, and cattle potential as he critiques earlier overland routes. Queensland lauded as best, but Northern Territory may surpass.

Wheat Experiments Highlight Top Yields and Varieties

Last year selective farmers under Department of Agriculture tested wheat varieties near Dangin with detailed plots of one-fifth acre. The best yield reached 37 bushels per acre while others produced 24 to 70 bushels, with Bayall and Comeback among notable performers. A small plot of Sailer's fine wheat yielded 24 bushels, sparking further trials before official reports. Mr Sullon praises the careful execution and the Commissioner views the work as an ideal farmer conducted experiment.
