Pressing for heavier bale weights in wool
Discussion of declining average wool weight per bale in Commonwealth states during 1940-41, with Victoria recording the lowest at 985 lb. A Wool Board advert encourages growers to press wools to heavier bale weights due to limited supplies. The 1942-49 budget details war costs, increased taxes on amusements, and higher duties on alcohol and tobacco. A livestock sale notice lists entries for next Wednesday. A silo at Malina Wheat emptied and prepared for the new season.
