Mr Everest is retiring from farming for health reasons and in our opinion this property is one of the best we have had the pleasure to offer by Public Auction. The carrying capacity is very conservative and no doubt could be Increased. The vendor normally buys any additional stock for rattening. The whole farm has been topdressed regularly and is in great heart. This season the barley yielded over 70 bushels per acre and the wheat over 50 bushels per acre on some of the lightest paddocks on the farm. It could confidently be expected in most seasons to yield greater returns. The stock is a credit to the owner and THE PURCHASER WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE OVER THE STOCK AND PLANT AT VALUATION.
