Street Stalls Move to Manilla Street Front
At the latest Municipal Council meeting the PMG department refused a lease for a vacant block beside the Post Office residence to build a semi permanent street stall. The council, responding to complaints about the Bank of NSW corner site, now allows stalls in front of the showroom on Manilla Street. Adequate feed is stressed as vital for successful animal husbandry by Mr W L Hindmarsh, Chief of the Department of Animal Industry.
