Put Price Rise Into Better Pastures
Mr G W Gordon general president of the Primary Producers Union told the annual Dairy Farmers Co op meeting that if the government raises butter prices farmers should reinvest the extra money in farms. He said dairying had neglected pasture improvement and without better grassland management NSW cannot meet butter needs. North coast farms now require 3 acres per beast instead of 2 due to pasture neglect. Major J R King of the PDS noted NSW sends millions out of state for dairy products and money should stay in NSW.

G and H Coupons in Uniforms Ration Rules
Rationing officials announced that no retailer can accept four H coupons for rationed goods before November 15, though some H coupons may be interchangeable between employers and employees. Waitresses and shop assistants who exhausted G coupons may use H coupons for uniforms, with employers removing them from employees’ ration books to ensure no G coupons remain. H coupons are not for direct store purchases. employers must file quarterly returns to the State Deputy Director detailing uniforms issued and coupon values, including collected G and H coupons.
