Debates on Departmental Agricultural Development in WA
Discussion outlines land reform via Crown lands in Western Australia. Proposes selective Crown land areas cleared into large three to five hundred acre paddocks, then allotted to individual farmers with long leases, water included, low rents, and access to social and educational facilities. Advocates state ownership for initial clearing, later transfer to individuals, with continued state management of large farms for work and training.

Strong emphasis was placed on securing railway facilities, fostering commercial ties with agricultural districts, and promoting Northam as a regional center and resort along new feeder lines.
