Wheat growing land receives satisfactory rainfall
A field report from the Merkanooka Morawa area notes varied crops with Neagle at 200 acres and 160 sheep, Stokes with 180 acres and 750 in stock, while F. H. Ager promotes farming on a 600 acre timbered sandplain. A show is planned for September 2 with stock classes added, and hotel development looks likely to aid labor scarcity in the district.

A famed English footballer Thickett, now a portly figure, is declared permanently unfit for military service after a medical weighing at Trowbridge. His measurements—waist fifty five inches, thigh thirty eight, arm twenty nine—are cited as evidence while a crowd watches the weighing and the scales tip to twenty four and a half stone.

The Battery Dog and the Somme Friendship
A World War I vignette recalls a dog nicknamed Treddles who guided a battery on Salisbury Plain and at the Somme. The story follows Wilson and Treddles as they share jokes, face inspections, and endure a deadly barrage, ending with Treddles and Wilson killed in action and memorialized by a grave marker for Troddles.
