Butter grading disputes at Sydney show prompt
Mr H. McVeigh criticizes a new judging method for butter prizes at Sydney's Royal Agricultural Show. He argues the rule requiring 90 percent choicest production skews results, inflates totals for Alstonville and Candelo, and disadvantages Gloucester, Bega, and others. He calls for true grade fairness and cites climate and logistics as factors.

Healthful find in local government annual report 1927 28
The Government Printer issued the Department of Local Government annual report for 1927 28 noting about 10 000 employees and only three defalcations totalling £1346. It highlights 2500 shire councillors and aldermen with two cases of purchases from a store linked to an alderman but deemed not serious. The system is tightly audited by certificated auditors and department examiners, with ratepayers able to trigger special inspections, underscoring strong public accountability amid commonplace gossip.
