Mr. Alfred Cream, the well known drover and stock dealer, has returned to Geraldton after successfully overlanding 5400 sheep from Clifton Down and Maroona Stations in the Ashburton districts. This constituted a record for the Northern stock routes, being the largest number travelled in one mob. Mr. Cream reports the country looking well there being abundance of feed and surface water. His principal difficulty was caused by the boggy nature of the country on The Gascoyne but, notwithstanding this drawback, and the troubles involved in handling so huge a number of sheep, Mr. Cream succeeded in landing his mob at Minginew without the loss of a single hoof. The stock wells, Mr. Cream states, are in a very bad condition, there having been nothing done in the way of inspecting them for over three years. One important well about 12 miles south of Mullewa which has recently been attended to requires deepening to ensure a good supply of water, and the erection of a derrick to provide facilities for drawing. Mr. Cream leaves Geraldton on October 2 for Williambury Station to shift 1000 to 5000 head of prime fat cattle and 2000 fat sheep, which have been purchased by Forrest, Emmanuel, and Co.
