Pastoral returns and costs urge reform for graziers
The article discusses varied returns on pastoral capital in NSW Victoria and SA, noting declines from war-time wool highs and urging cost reductions. It cites wage, transport and tariff increases since 1907, taxation rises, and difficult conditions for 1929–30, urging government action and better country services. It also touches car buying trends, telephone charges, and rising shearer tallies as context for farm viability.
