District News Elong Elond and Local Farming Notes

From our correspondent in Elong Elond district, steady rain has aided ploughing as farmers prepare hundreds of acres for seed. Yeo, Bourke, V Leary, and Mesare are making progress, corn and potatoes thrive, and a 40 acre corn area looks set for a heavy crop. A mare death after phosphorus exposure reveals its long internal effects, while foxes rise in numbers and threaten poultry and lambs. Heavy rains drive cattle movements from Forbes to Wallhalla and Coolah areas, with 750 bullocks and 700 bullocks noted and a 900 head drop to Mudges, as drovers report plentiful feed after floods in the Hunter District.
