Commonwealth to subsidise cheap feed for stock
The Commonwealth Food Control will supply low cost feed to dairy, pig and poultry sectors. Minister Scully urged producers to raise sales of feeding stock, saying wheat stocks for feed will be maintained next season. Subsidies rise to 730,000 pounds for cheap feed wheat and 450,000 pounds for cheap coarse grains. Subsidised feeds include barley oats sorghum and maize in listed states to back dairy and livestock sectors with affordable grain. Dairying experts urge widespread use of stock feed to lift per cow returns and cover costs. Notice: trespassers on Peggy will be prosecuted. prior permissions canceled, signed M. J. Frogley.

Postwar wool stocks and slaughter affect world clip
Totalled 3,433,750, 15 percent above the 1939 to 1943 average, slaughter figures rise in most countries with stock. Immediate postwar wool supply remains, but heavy slaughtering will reduce world flocks and likely shrink the world clip, worsened byContinental depletion from war conditions.
