About 50 000 bags have moved to Tarpoly Upper Manilla Wimbourne Brabri and Klori ridings as farmers delay carting.

North Manilla drainage plans approved after council vote
The Municipal Council approved the second drainage scheme for North Manilla after considering two proposals from Mpsara Wright and Willis of Sydney. Plans will be sent to the Government, property owners will be consulted on permits, and the Mayor and Deputy Mayor will discuss drains with residents. A death was reported in Tamworth Hospital, Mr Alex Hardcastle, age 42, leaving a widow and seven children. The funeral is set for tomorrow. A discussion on local home consumption suggests a need for 18 bushels per 200 grown, with pricing around 8/6 or 4s per bushel, and potential wider parity implications. An extra sixpence per bushel could bring about £7,000 to Manilla District to cover sacks and part of cartage.
