The State's Future First in Wheat Production
The Federal Minister for Works and Railways Mr W C Hill visited Western Australia and praised its wheat growth. He noted last year's yield of 23 million bushels and this year's estimate of 30 million, predicting WA could export 50 to 60 million bushels annually in ten years once coast and railways open up vast wheat lands. Prices should stay good for several seasons, with transport ties to Russia affecting long-term outlook. He forecast Western Australia becoming a premier wheat producer and potentially the most populous state.
