A jumble of parcels from Australia recounts a widow struggling with a large family, intrigue over a widower, and multiple domestic tensions. The section also describes a Brisbane motorist injuring pedestrians, a dangerous vehicular accident harming several bystanders, and a dramatic maritime storm near Sydney with the Burraba suffering heavy damage and passengers injured or saved.
A column by Me Ered L Jeffreys of Kuring-Gai NAW argues tractors outpace horses, detailing speed, efficiency, and labor savings. He notes one 12hp tractor can match eight horses, enables day and night work, and supports ploughing with front furrow guides, urging farmers to consider motor traction and inviting questions.

It mentions farmers discarding certain equipment and returning to earlier methods, with references to belts, engines, and variable productivity. The passage is incomplete and reads as a rough diary-like musing.
The item listing details a range of woolen garments and accessories with prices in an old style currency. It mentions wool blankets scarves mantles and jackets with varied colors and trims and notes a lay-by system and seasonal fracks. The text reads like an advertisement from a past issue.
