| 113 | 1889 'THE CENTRAL SOUTHERN DISTRICTS The animal carnival of the Blackwood district was formally inaugurated this year by a PLOUGHING MATCH on the 27th of last month. In spite of the forebodings of so many of the leading agriculturists of the neighbourhood, an undoubted success was achieved, and great interest was shown in the competition. The ground open for the match was a field belonging to Mr. Alfred Doust, about a mile from Bridgetown, and although it was long past the usual ploughing season, the soil was by no means too hard for good work to be done. Six competitors took the field, four of whom used wheel ploughs, and' two the old fashioned ewing machines. The general excellence of the work done was so well appreciated by the public, that the judges determined to award prizes to all the competitor, and subscriptions were at once collected for that object. The mccessful ploughmen wore Edmund Moore and George Fox, using swing and wheel ploughs respectively. The judges were Messrs. Thomas Dickson, senr., and Charles Brookman. In connection with this matter I may state that a very generous offer has been made by Mr. Thomas Giblett, of the Warren, to give to the Society the sum of 10s an acre for every acre ploughed in his field, by tho competitors. A match to be held there nert year, in the "proper ploughing season and also to provide horse feed and refreshments for those who compete. | Giblett, Thomas (I725)

| 114 | 1890 'THE ROAD TO PARKER'S FIND THE ROAD TO PARKER'S FIND. To THE EDITOR. SIR,Instead of spending £100 on a new track to Parker's Find, I think the Government ought to spend what money, they have, on the main road from York to Tootagin, and cut a track from thence to Parker's Find. On this route bald rocks can be found at every few miles, and it would prove fully as straight as the road via Mount Stirling. Teams can go out to Tootagin now with loads, but you cannot go to Mount Stirling with two teams together, as the water is private property and the settlers have not sufficient for their own stock. Then again Mr. Parker's never failing springs out eastward would not water more than two or three horses in the twenty four hours. When these travellers went out in 1888 there was water in all the rocks, but try if there is now, and see what you will find. By the Tootagin track more miles could be saved than on the Mount Stirling track, and besides there are no,private wells on the former road. The settlers already warn the public, in the newspapers, from going to their wells, but what will they say if they are fifty or sixty horses coming to water, as I have seen this summer time after time on the main road.

| 129 | 1893 'THE ROAD TO SOUTHERN CROSS AND COOLGARDIE THE ROAD TO SOUTHERN CROSS AND COOLGARDIE. To THE EDITOR Sir, For the information of the travelling publie I beg to draw attention, through the medium of your valuable journal, to the bad state of some places on the goldfields road. I especially refer to two places, one at Southern Cross and the ether between there and Coolgardie, where the road passes through the lakes. At the present time these places are so cut up with heavy traffic that teams have to await the arrival of others to pull each other out, and if the parts of the road are not repaired before the rainy season sets in they will be altogether impasable, and supplies for the fields will be entirely cut off. I would suggest that if the Yilgarn Roads Board cannot find the means to immediately carry out this urgent and necessary work, the Government be asked to send Mr. Raeside's party, who cleared the road, and is so well qualified to effect What requires to be done. As there is plenty of timber within easy distance, it appears to me the most effectual remedy would be to " log " those boggy places and make what is called a "corduroy" road. It would at all events meet the present difficulty until the completion of the Yilgarn railway. Yours, etc., WILLIAM MARWICK. York, 27th April. | Marwick, William Joseph (I768)

| 144 | 1906 'OUTBREAK AT GERALDTON OUTBREAK AT GERALDTON. Geraldton, February 20. A case of bubonic plague has been reported in Geraldton, the patient being a servant girl, employed in the house of a hairdresser, named Kruger, in Gray's Buildings. Dr Thom, who was called in to attend the girl, pronounced the case to be clearly one of plague. The condition of the patient is said to be serious. In addition to the above case, there is that of Mr. Gray (of Gray and Co, storekeepers), which is regarded as doubtful. Both patients have been isolated. From Gray and Co.'s store, a lad named Cream (son of the late Mr. John Cream) recently became ill, and he died last Sunday. It was asserted in some quarters that he succumbed to bubonic plague, but the doctor who attended him ridiculed the idea. Since the illness of Kruger's servant girl and Mr. Gray, however, the belief in the assertion regarding young Cream has been revived. There is some suspicion too, that Mr. J. C. Butcher who died somewhat suddenly a little while ago was also a victim to plague. The local health authorities telegraphed to the Central Board of Health to have a bacteriologist, with nurses, a medical attendant, tents, etc sent up, and the request is being complied with. The Municipal Council is offering a reward of 6d. each for rats, and is is taking special efforts to clear rubbish away from all buildings in the town. Gray's Buildings have been closed, and the whole block of which they form part has been isolated and placed under police supervision. Eight contacts from Gray's Buildings have been quarantined., Geraldton, [February 21. No fresh cases of plague have been reported in the town. The two persons who are affected with, the disease are progressing favorably. The outbreak of plague has caused a number of visitors who were staying Geraldton to pack up and leave. It is stated that rats have been observed for some time in a debilitated and dying condition. | Cream, Ernest John (I44)
