North belt areas like Mannaitarie Bundaleer Capo are favoured. A general sense of confidence grows that stock and crops will fare well this year. The writer admits lacking the optimism of some papers.

The Review extols lucerne for its nutritional value and soil benefits, noting a strong rise in planting across the Mid North over the past decade. It recalls irrigation efforts, including Jack Forth's farm twenty five years ago, and argues lucerne is vital until wheat prices improve. The piece mentions J A Lyons MP’s push to lift wheat prices and cites literary recommendations. It also lists local appointments: Messrs Thomas Swearne James Town and Stewart Sommerville Spalding named Justices of Peace for South Australia, and Jack Builder named manager of Goldsbrough Mort & Co Col Gladstone.
