Crop prospects improve with rains across districts
The Daily News reports May and June rainfall bringing good prospects in eastern and western districts. Beverley led with 43 points, Toot yay 40, Goomaling 26 as crops show promising yields. Widespread rains aided wheat sown on fallow land, though hard ground slowed planting. Tyodyay and Wagin crops look splendid with early sown and fallow-land plots thriving. In London, Lloyd George plans large surpluses to fund Uganda development and debt reduction.
