DROUGHT-STRICKEN AUSTRALIA.
AN APPEAL FROM PASTORALISTS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright Sydney, May 23. The Stock Protection Board in the West is urging that in view of the universal drought in New South Wales and Queensland of unparalleled severity, the Federal Parliament should temporarily suspend the grain and fodder duties. The Board understands that New Zealand has a larger amount of produce on band than for many years, and with the pound per ton duty removed, pastoralists would, no doubt, purchase largely in order to save their stock.
