Caution is issued that any person fording, quek shooting, fishing, trespassing or interfering with stock at Moss Vile in Upper Manilla will be prosecuted. BYRNES.
Public notice from Hudson and Stratford prohibits shooting, hunting, or fence interference on Willamby in Willamby and Knowlton Manilla with enforcement without regard to persons. The message withdraws all prior permissions, promising prosecution for trespass or interference on the property. The rest of the text appears as a local historical market report about a saleyard in Dangoe with a humorous anecdote about Lance Farley and a sheep purchase, published by Altonio pulling the wool over the Richmond Macleod at Manilla.
The following notes have been supplied by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research. The document outlines stock care practices, experimental considerations, and practical guidance for farmers and researchers. It emphasizes methods to improve livestock health, feeding, and welfare within research-driven frameworks.
The article mixes sheep drenching protocols with dangerous chemical mixtures for worm control and a jumbled air raid guidance. It includes drug names, doses, and costs for livestock treatments, followed by improvised wartime safety tips that devolve into misdirected and unsafe instructions. It also contains unrelated notes on pain sensitivity studies and a stray report about Egyptian railway workers rewarded after German arrival.
The text warns that doses of certain mixtures must not be increased as doing so could kill sheep. It notes that bluestone and arsenic mixtures are effective against a Latwe Stomneh Woon Haemonehas and should be used during ear ring to gut in winter, recommending Dunstone nicotine for young sheep.
The Rationing Commission announces a single channel for distributing comforts to service personnel through the Australian Comforts Fund. It aims to prevent duplication, control wastage, and ensure coupons are used for servicemen’s comforts only, with registered patriotic bodies submitting requirements and distribution plans to head office.
A military briefing noted that although automatic weapons and advanced devices emerged, the ordinary rifle remained the top weapon for the average soldier. Major Court told correspondents that maintaining marksmanship standards is essential, countering a German officer's criticism from earlier campaigns.
A fragmented report describes a classroom demonstration of weapons to inspire confidence in Australian and English firearms. The account cites teachers and a militia-like setup, mentioning a range at Aresdelm Jan ville and a dubious Major Cour Avi, with unclear details about the offensive use of a weapon and players’ intentions amid chaotic narration.
