History

1907 - Around Tumut.A special correspondent writes: - Pastoral matters in Tomorroma, Jeremiah, Bongongo, Red Hill's, and other districts situated from 20 to 25 miles east to north of Tumut, are at present, and have been for sometime, in such a condition : to cause sheep and cattle owners considerable anxiety. The greater portion of the miles of hilly country between Tomorroma and Mr. G. J. Graham's Bongongo Station, is densely covered with dead wood, and some time must elapse before it can be cleared; tetill, nearer Bongongo great headway is being made in the direction of burning off. Despite tho untiring efforts to overcome the rabbit pest in these parts. Brer Rabbit flourishes to an alarming degree. Last winter is spoken of in the districts named as having been an exceedingly wet one; but being followed by an unusually dry summer, and almost droughty winter the 3 year, the outlook for pastoralists is very far from being encouraging.
