GRAZIER AND HIS HOME.
" UNFIT FOR SHEARERS." A GILBERT! AN SITUATION. A srrazier ;n the North-west of New South Wales, who has been battling with droughts and other misfortunes, received the recent introduction of the Rural Workers' Accomsiodatics Act with much trepidation, until it occurred to him that the easiest way out of his difficulty was to vacate his old homestead for theshearers ana use a make-shift dwelling' for himself tor the time being. While it is not a palace, the homestead is a comfortable enough place. It has served owners of the property for a good many years and is expected to accommodate them for a considerable time longer. When the hut inspector arrived, however, he condemned the residence as unfit for the accommodation of the shearers. He said that it did not comply with the requirements of the Act.
The grazier's comment was: ".Jack is not only as good as his master nowadays, bat apparently quite a good deal better."
