Depth of Ploughing Offers Mixed Returns on Yields
A five year Roseworthy College study tests 2 to 12 inch plough depths on medium clay loams for cereal crops. 1913 shows 2 inch depth yielding best among depths. 1915 favors deeper furrows over 4 and 6 inches. Principal Delgbateh notes gradual reordering of plot yields toward deeper ploughing, though differences are small.

Deep Ploughing Study Shows Narrow Margin and Early Results
The report compares 4 inch and 6 inch plots, finding a 10 lb advantage for deeper ploughing and 7d an acre by the same calculation. It notes the experiments are new and the long term benefits of shallow versus deep ploughing are not yet clear, inviting local farmer input.
Fragmented 1916 mining place names data stream
A garbled OCR fragment lists numerous place names and figures such as 1916 era mining stations, stands, machines, and totals scattered with unclear punctuation. It mentions towns like Austin Downs and Wangare and includes numerous numeric values, suggesting a ledger-like record of operations or yields without coherent context.
Queensland Past House Directory Entry Missing Details
Fragmentary OCR text references a Queensland house directory with unclear dates and names. The readable bits mention February and a four date stamp but no coherent event, person, or organization details to summarize into a full item.
