My thanks go to Wayne Carey for sharing an emotional tribute to Basil Nolan Jnr with readers this week (see pages 4-5).

This community is still reeling from and coming to terms with the sudden loss of a loved and respected local figure, in the prime of his life, through a farming accident.

I did not have the privilege of knowing Basil well, but he coached my youngest son in footy in 2017 - at Basil's beloved Collegians junior club - and it was clear the kids looked up to him that year, no doubt along with all the very many before them.

He was also a huge figure in the Australian thoroughbred industry - of which Warwick is a major centre - and his loss is being felt both nationwide and internationally.

But more than anything Basil was clearly devoted most of all to his family, and the pain and the magnitude of their loss is almost inconceivable.

Ours is very much a caring community and I have no doubt it's a community which will support Natalie and their children and their wider family in the difficult times still ahead.

The thoughts of all of us here at the Free Times are with them and we wish them strength and courage.

STOLEN UTE FROM THE DEEP Police divers last week recovered a stolen utility dumped in a popular swimming and fishing hole east of Warwick.

A Police Media statement said divers from Brisbane attended the waterhole known as 'The Rockies' - also known as 'Carr's Crossing' - on Emu Creek last Wednesday 7 November.

The search of the waterhole followed information from the public that a reported stolen car had been dumped at the location.

"Divers searched a section of Emu Creek known as 'The Rockies' and located a Toyota utility that was confirmed to have been reported stolen from Rose Bud Court in Warwick on Wednesday 8 August this year," the statement said.

"The vehicle was located under a popular jump off point and could have potentially cause a hazard for those using the swimming spot.

"Those responsible have demonstrated they have complete disregard for the safety of anyone swimming or the environment they have polluted with fuel and oil.

"Police urge anyone with information about this incident to contact Policelink on 131 444 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

"Police would particularly like the author of an anonymous letter delivered to the Warwick Station regarding this matter, to make contact with police." ●

NEW BUNNINGS SET TO OPEN ON MONDAY

BY JEREMY SOLLARS Hardware giant Bunnings Warehouse is scheduled to open its new Warwick outlet this coming Monday 19 December.

The $20 million development at the corner of Condamine and Canning Streets will employ close to 90 staff, including those from the existing store on Palmerin Street.

Bunnings' State Operations Manager Queensland South Margaret Walford said the team is "currently in the process of merchandising the new Bunnings Warehouse in Warwick".

"Our team is looking forward to welcoming local residents to the new warehouse which will be more than double the size of the current Warwick store," Margaret said.

Bunnings Warehouse Warwick Complex Manager Dan Pfingst told the Free Times last month several of the new team members are also qualified tradespeople with skills in horticulture and landscaping,

alongside experts in store to help locals with their DIY projects.

"Bunnings provides a wide range of meaningful career development options for all team members, and I'm confident our new recruits will relish the opportunity to learn and grow with us in this bigger and better warehouse store," Dan said.

"The new Bunnings Warehouse Warwick will continue to provide ongoing support to community groups to raise funds for a variety of causes by hosting the famous Bunnings Sausage Sizzles.

"Local customers will enjoy the convenience of an even wider range of home improvement and outdoor living products backed by the best service at the new

warehouse location.

The new Bunnings Warehouse Warwick is located at the corner of Condamine and Canning Streets, behind KFC and adjacent to Warwick East State School.

Wild rumours have been circulating that BCF (Boating Camping Fishing) Australia plans to open an outlet in the soon-to-beformer Bunnings site on Palmerin Street.

The Free Times has attempted to seek comment from BCF on several occasions but is yet to receive a response. · The Free Times was given a "sneak peek" inside the new Warwick Bunnings Warehouse this week - check out the photos online at www.freetimes.com.au ●

The Southern Downs Regional Council will welcome the Coordinator-General for Drought Major General Stephen Day to the Southern Downs today to help develop further strategies for tackling drought relief.

Major General Day will meet with local primary producers and industry representatives today, Thursday 15 November.

The Federal Government has tasked Major General Day with engaging all levels of government, the private sector, charity organisations, communities and farmers to better facilitate service delivery and drought relief to those most in need.

Councillor for Agriculture, Environment and Sustainability Cameron Gow said Major General Day's visit presents a real opportunity for the Southern Downs.

"Having someone with Major General Day's knowledge and experience visit our region and discuss how we can best help those most affected by the drought is an important opportunity for the Southern Downs," Cr Gow said.

"Major General Day has visited drought affected areas around Australia and the knowledge he can share about how other regions help provide relief will prove invaluable.

"At the same time, it gives Southern Downs residents the chance to share with Major General Day how our region provides drought relief which he can take away and share with other regions as well."

While in the Southern Downs, Major General Day will tour a cattle property at Greymare severely affected by the drought.

He will then meet with primary producers to discuss the difficulties producers have faced and ways to improve service delivery in future droughts.

Major General Day will also meet with key industry leaders from across the Southern Downs to discuss how the drought has impacted the region's economy. ●

COVER STORY

Always ready with a smile - Basil Nolan Jnr with some of the team from Raheen Stud.

A LIFE WELL-LIVED J

BY JEREMY SOLLARS

ust so easy-going, a gentleman who loved his family unbelievably, hardworking, honest and generous - the list goes on".

These were the words used to describe Basil Nolan Jnr by his best mate, Warwick's Wayne Carey, when asked this week how he would characterise the muchloved thoroughbred industry figure and family man.

A farming accident late at night on Melbourne Cup Day last week - Tuesday 6 November - took the father of four's life at the age of just 45.

A heartbroken Wayne Carey will give the eulogy at Basil's funeral today - at 11am at St Mary's Catholic Church in Warwick - but he told the Free Times it would be "a struggle".

The two were friends since childhood - the Carey and Nolan families had both family and social links - with Wayne saying he and Basil had known each other "since we were babies".

He can't recall there ever being "bad words" between them and their bond of mateship truly cemented during their high school years together at Assumption College.

Wayne and wife Natalie were among the first to rush to the scene at the Nolan's thoroughbred stud 'Raheen' at Gladfield late last Tuesday night, and have been supporting Natalie Nolan and children Basil, Lily, James and William since.

"We were at Assumption in years 8, 9 and 10, before Basil went to board at Nudgee College in Brisbane - like his dad had done - for his senior years," an emotional Wayne recalled this week.

"After high school he had the idea of becoming a teacher and he enrolled at the Australian Catholic University.

"But it only lasted a few months - his passion was for horses and racing and he ended up doing a stint for a year with trainer John Hawkes in Sydney, furthering his knowledge.

"He really enjoyed that time, he idolised that stable.

"After that he came home to Raheen.

"It was at that time he started his footy career with the Warwick Cowboys and I can honestly say he was the most loyal player that club ever had.

"He'd played in the First XV at Nudgee College, which was an enormous achievement in itself.

"He was a front-rower for the Cowboys, he

Basil was a familiar face at the Magic Millions. really cherished that club and he played for many years, retiring around the age of 30."

It was also around that time that Basil married the love of his life, Natalie.

"We were at a yearling sale at the Brisbane Showgrounds and the sale finished and we decided to head out on the town for

a few beers," Wayne said.

"But before we went out Basil said to me, 'Here, I want to show you this girl I like'.

"Natalie was working on a checkout in the catering area and I took one look at her and I said to him, 'You've got no hope, she's too good-looking'.

"They knew each other a bit through racing circles - at that time Natalie was in charge of functions at Doomben Racecourse.

"They dated and they ended up getting married - she grew up at Sandgate, he brought the city girl to the country."

Children followed and when the youngest, William, battled with heart problems at birth Wayne said Basil's devotion as a dad shone through.

"William had to have heart surgery and Basil dropped everything to be by his side," Wayne said.

"I remember they came home and Basil would sit up all hours of the night feeding William through a tube.

"These days he's doing really well, he's a lovely little fella."

After his own footy career came to an end, Basil Nolan Jnr turned his sporting energies to the juniors, coaching many year groups of Collegians players who made their way through the club.

"What really stands out for me the most about Basil as a junior coach was that it wasn't all about winning, even though he himself had a terrific desire to win when he was playing," Wayne said.

"With the juniors he didn't care about the scoreboard, it was all about getting them to have a go.

"He just cherished the time he spent coaching the kids - including things like the Under 43kg carnivals."

The last time Wayne Carey saw his best mate was on the Saturday night of this year's Warwick Rodeo.

"He and Natalie had left their car at our place and we all left the Rodeo around 9.30pm or so with the kids," Wayne said.

"Neither of us had had a beer, the first time I think that had ever happened at the Rodeo and I remember saying, 'This is a bit out of whack', and we all went home.

"And that was that.

"It's been a bloody real struggle - it's just so hard to come to terms with." ● Basil Nolan Jnr's funeral will be held at 11am today, Thursday 15 November, at St Mary's Catholic Church in Warwick, followed by a Requiem Mass. All are welcome.

AN INDUSTRY MOURNS ...

The Thoroughbred Breeders Queensland Association has remembered Basil Nolan Jnr as "always full of life, hardworking and exceptionally passionate about the thoroughbred industry".

In a statement released last week by the TBQA - of which Basil Nolan Snr is president - they said Basil Jnr was "well

respected and highly regarded and took on any task enthusiastically and with the utmost professionalism".

"There was rarely a time that you'd see Basil Junior without a smile on his face," the statement said.

"He was a devoted family man; a tremendous support for his wife Natalie and a wonderful father to Lily, Basil Junior, James and William.

"It is devastating to lose Basil Junior in the prime of his life and it is a terrible blow for the next generation of racing and breeding in not just Queensland, but Australia-wide.

"Basil was one of the industry's true gentlemen.

"Not only was he a great horseman but, more importantly, he was a warm and generous man who always seemed to have a smile on his face.

"He was also a devoted father of four and it was always a highlight to have a chat to Basil and his children when Raheen had a draft to sell.

"I'm sure anyone who had dealings with Basil will be grieving his loss and that the whole breeding and racing community will be thinking of the Nolan family at this difficult time."

"The TBQA thanks the racing community for already rallying around the Nolan family and for all the messages of love and support.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with them in this devastating time."

Tom Reilly, chief executive of Thoroughbred Breeders Australia (TBA) said Basil Nolan Jnr was "a multigenerational breeder that ran the very successful farm along with his wife Natalie and parents, Basil and Diane".

"On behalf of the directors and staff of TBA we extend our deepest sympathies to the Nolan family," Tom Reilly said.

CARVERY TO MAKE A COMEBACK

BY JEREMY SOLLARS

Cheryl Colley (centre) with Mussels staff Jaime Bourke and Mamta Bhagat.

12403550-CG47-18

If you've been missing the former Rose City Carvery - like all of us at the Free Times - you'll be thrilled to know it's about to return, with a new owner.

Cheryl Colley of Mussels Restaurant on Palmerin Street has revealed she is the driving force behind the 'new' business venture, which will be simply dubbed 'The Carvery Pty Ltd'.

She told the Free Times she is hopeful the new outlet in the Rose City Shoppingworld food court will be open "by early December", and while the staple offerings of delights such as chicken chips and roast sangers will make a triumphant return there'll be much more in store.

And in case you're wondering - Mussels itself is staying right where it is on the main street, and celebrating 20 years in Warwick this year.

"It was just a good opportunity that we saw - the original carvery was one of the oldest businesses in the shopping centre," Cheryl said.

"We tried out a few different names but in the end we opted to keep it simple - everyone always knew it as simply 'The Carvery'.

"We want to bring it back to its iconic origins with traditional carvery-style food.

"But it will also have a cake counter with all of the pastries made here at Mussels, so you'll be able to grab a coffee and cake in the food court.

Watch this space - Cheryl Colley is now hiring for ''The Carvery Pty Ltd''.

New businesses - Pickle and Must and Country Bourne are not far away.

"And we'll be bringing back all the old carvery favourites people have been missing."

Cheryl is currently seeking staff for The Carvery Pty Ltd, with around 10 required, including a manager, and with a combination of full-time, part-time and casual positions - and juniors are welcome to apply.

"I've been trying to track down the former staff but of course most of them have moved on to other jobs by now," Cheryl said.

"But I have been able to employ one of those former staff so far, which is great.

"What's happening right now is that fittings are being assembled off-site, we've done up our design for the layout and if everything goes according to plan we hope to be open by early December.

"A few people have said we'll be competing against ourselves with Mussels, but they are two very different businesses.

"The Carvery Pty Ltd is more of an

'impulse' outlet, whereas Mussels is a 'destination' dining venue.

"Nothing will change with Mussels - it will still be here, offering the same range including the buffets." · Interested in working at The Carvery Pty Ltd? Email your resume to Cheryl Colley at - thecarveryptyltd@hotmail.com

Former Rose City Carvery owners Neil and Helena Parfitt are powering ahead with their plans to open a new business at the former Glennie Heights Convenience Store.

Neil told the Free Times this week he was confident the venture - which will comprise a takeaway/carvery-style food outlet and grocery lines - will be open by Christmas, if not well before.

He said he and Helena were in the process of securing final council and other approvals and organising merchandise from suppliers.

MORE ON THE WAY There's other exciting things happening in Rose City Shoppingworld, with another two new businesses gearing up to open in the near future.

The former Bread Factory opposite the entrance to Coles in the new mall area has been taken over by baker Craig Bourne, who hopes to have his new venture 'Country Bourne' open by Christmas.

Details are being kept minimal at this

point but it's understood the outlet will be a bakery/pie shop, with Craig telling the Free Times it's "very much still proceeding".

Next door Rosie Favero is busy preparing for the re-opening of her Pickle and Must Delicatessen in Rose City Shoppingworld.

The popular business was originally run side-by-side the Favero's Bellevue Cafe on Palmerin Street. They closed the main street doors in late October and are aiming for a November opening of the new deli in the centre. ●

John and Mandy Creed, pictured with John's grandfather's clock in the background.

“GROWING, NOT GOING...”

BY JEREMY SOLLARS A longstanding Warwick printing business is about to embark on its next chapter of growth after announcing a merger deal.

Creed and Lang Pty Ltd has joined forces with Toowoomba printers the Greenridge Group - but local customers won't notice anything different, other than an expanded range of services.

John and Mandy Creed saw an opportunity to restructure their business and home lives, largely around the care needs of their daughter Madison, 24, who has a disability.

Mandy has up until now spent around 40 hours a week at the Creed and Lang headquarters on King Street in Warwick, with the merger to allow her to be at home full-time to look after Madison.

John Creed said the merger was a good

outcome for all concerned but stressed it was still "business as usual".

"We're growing - not going," he told the Free Times this week.

"We'll still be in the same place, with the same name on the door, using the same equipment and machinery.

"And I'll be the general manager until the day I die.

"Basically what it means is that Greenridge will be taking over things like wages, billing and pricing, which will free Mandy up.

"We've been in this community for 70odd years and we're not going anywhere."

John said the deal had been done at a time when Greenridge was looking to expand their "footprint" on the Darling Downs and would allow Warwick and surrounding business and other customers access to even

more printing and communication services.

Greenridge Group General Manager Print Kyal Osborne said the company was "very pleased" that the merger has been completed.

"One of the main reasons for this merger was to enable an efficient, sustainable business and ensure we are in a strong position to continue providing the best possible service and solutions for our customers," Kyal said.

"Customers have always been, and will remain, at the heart of our business.

"This merger is designed to deliver even more innovative products and solutions which continue to add value for customers.

"These will include wide-format print and signage and production of point-ofsale material, mail marketing and direct mail, transactional mail and electronic

communications "We are now able to access state-ofthe-art systems that allow high levels of personalisation and customisation of ordinary mail, email, SMS to mobile devices and web portals.

"Using the data you already have, we can help you communicate with your customers, the way they prefer, as they interact across various devices.

"By using more appropriate customer touch points you can improve your opportunity for increased revenue.

"John Creed and our graphic designers, Claire and Rhonda, are staying on as our first priority is continuity of experience for you, and the brands and businesses working with us.

"Mandy is looking forward to retirement and having more time with the family." ●

FOCUS ON … National Recycling Week

TRASH FOR CASH PROVES A REAL SMASH QUEENSLANDERS can now turn trash into cash with the state's new container refund scheme, offering 10 cents back for each eligible container returned for recycling. The new scheme Containers for Change launched on November 1 to reduce litter from almost three billion drink containers, which are sold in Queensland yearly. To mark the launch, Mackay artist and conservationist David Day designed a giant sculpture made entirely from 4000 recycled drink containers, standing 3.8 metres high and displayed in Brisbane's King George Square. The organisation tasked with establishing and running the scheme is Container Exchange (COEX). COEX acting chair Alby Taylor said action was needed as statistics show Queensland has one of the highest littering rates in the country.

"Just one year's worth of container litter would go around the world roughly ten times if laid end-to-end," Mr Taylor said.

"Containers for Change will help improve recycling rates, reduce litter and provide funding opportunities for schools, charities, community groups and other not-for-profit organisations." The network launched with more than 230 refund points throughout the state, with that number expected to grow to more than 300.

"The scheme also provides a great opportunity for businesses to set up container refund points," Mr Taylor said.

"We have also established a number of temporary bag drop locations around the state to ensure customers can return their

OUR FUTURE: Containers for Change will improve recycling rates and reduce litter.

SCULPTURE: Mackay artist and conservationist David Day designed this giant fish with 4000 recycled drink containers to launch the recycling scheme.

Photos: Supplied by COEX containers over the busy launch period, especially on weekends."

According to Mr Taylor, as more mobile and fixed collection points come on board, access to refunds will gradually improve.

Ken Noye, chief executive officer of COEX, said a statewide open tender process for container refund points received a great response, however, some rural and remote areas of Queensland and the Torres Strait do not yet have operators.

"COEX staff have been travelling to those areas to work with local councils and businesses to develop sustainable solutions," Mr Noye said. These can take the form of mobile or pop-up container refund points,

such as trailers or utes with cages on the back, installed in towns which have so far missed out on container refund points. The state government has recognised the problem and will provide a $10,000 grant for notfor-profit organisations to set up donation points in rural and remote communities. In addition, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islande councils can apply for grants of up to $50,000 to take part in the scheme.

"Ultimately, the Queensland environment will benefit from a reduction of pollution in our oceans, rivers and creeks," said Mr Noye.

To take part, return your drink container to a refund point to get your 10 cent refund per container. Or you can simply donate

them to a community group.

For more information or to register, visit www.containersforchange.com.au.

Information about grants can be found at www.qld.gov.au/environment/pollution/ management/waste/recovery/fundinggrants.Eligibility Containers for Change is focused on reducing litter in the environment so recycling efforts are on drinks generally consumed away from home (soft drinks, water bottles, small flavoured milk).

This includes most glass, plastic, aluminium, steel and paper-based cartons between 150 millilitres and three litres.

Drink containers generally consumed only at home (wine bottles, spirit bottles) are excluded. This includes plain milk, pure juice drinks and cordials.

100 YEARS SINCE THE ARMISTICE...

Young people were at the centre of Remembrance Day 2018 commemorations in Warwick's Leslie Park last Sunday 11 November.

Warm weather, blue skies and a stunning floral display in the park formed the backdrop for the service - memorialising 100 years since the signing of the Armistice which ended the First World War. The 17 ACU Warwick Army Cadets were front and centre for the service, forming the Catafalque Party and flag attendants and dutifully standing to attention as a group in the heat.

WAGYU FRAUD CASE ONGOING

BY JEREMY SOLLARS A man charged with cattle fraud in excess of $1.5 million is next due to have the matter mentioned in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on Monday 3 December.

Anthony Robert Lee, 65, of Evans Head in New South Wales, is alleged to have placed an advertisement in rural media in early 2017 for a company wanting to purchase cattle for processing for export.

A Queensland Police Media statement issued in February this year said that "as a result, three cattle properties contacted the company in April, May and June 2017 where they entered into contracts to supply Wagyu and Wagyu cross cattle".

"It will then be alleged the companies did not receive full payment for the sales agreed upon after supplying the cattle," the statement said.

Detectives from the Queensland Police State Crime Command's Major and Organised Crime Squad (Rural) charged Lee after what they described as a "protracted fraud investigation".

Lee first appeared in the Lismore Local Court in late February after his arrest in NSW and was afterwards placed in the custody of Queensland police.

He has not yet been required to enter a plea.

The major fraud case is still with the courts.

Detectives have described the alleged $1.5m fraud as "crippling" to the cattle industry and the cattle companies involved.

One of the companies involved is based in Springsure in Central Queensland and another is based in Charters Towers, while the other two are based in New South Wales.

Police believe there could be more victims of this fraud and are encouraging anyone who may have responded to the advertisement to contact them.

NEW RESEARCH ON LAMB SURVIVAL LOOKS AT DYSTOCIA New research is underway to help boost lamb survival in Australian sheep flocks by better understanding the underlying causes of dystocia, or difficulty in lambing, one of the costliest conditions for sheep producers.

The project is researching the impact duration of lambing has on ewes and lambs, to help better inform future control efforts such as treatments.

It is one of 10 projects to be funded by the Strategic Partnership for Animal Welfare Research, Development and Adoption (RD&A). The Partnership is a collaboration between Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA), through MLA Donor Company (MDC), and some of the country’s leading research bodies to undertake ground-breaking projects focused on animal welfare.

MLA Program Manager Health Welfare & Biosecurity, Dr Johann Schroumlder, said neonatal lamb loss has been identified by MLA as one of the top five conditions or diseases compromising sheep profitability, and is estimated to cost the industry in excess of $219 million annually.

The four-year project is being led by Dr Sabine Schmoelzl, CSIRO Armidale, who says it will help establish a better understanding of why lambs don’t survive or why ewes fail to raise the lambs.

“Dystocia is defined as ‘prolonged lambing’ or any reason a labour doesn’t progress, including when a ewe is running out of energy and just can’t handle it

anymore,” Dr Schmoelzl said.

“We believe dystocia contributes to more than half of all neonatal lamb mortality, which is the single highest cause of financial loss in the sheep industry.

“This project is developing a completely new research tool to help define what affects the duration of lambing. We want to be able to answer the question - how can we prevent prolonged lambing by various treatments or through genetics?

“Natural selection of the fittest lambs, or genetic selection of ewes which are successfully rearing lambs, is an attractive concept, and important to keep in mind. Relying on it alone, even with good management, has nevertheless not achieved solving the issue of lamb mortality altogether, and that is why we are developing this new tool.” ●

GP39 SERIES The GP39 SERIES with its 22 INCH SHANK is ideal for general use and with small or low horsepower tractors. The main beams are 39” (990mm) over all, front to rear. The GP39 models are developed specifically as a very economical and versatile plow for general purpose use. Hence GP. The two beams, 39” (990mm) over all, spreads the shanks and eliminates “slabbing” which can occur between adjacent shanks when subsoiling in some undeveloped soil types. The frames are based on a standard 13” spacing (actually one third of a metre, 333mm). Like all Yeomans shanks the 22” is moveable for varying the different spacings. The 16” Coulter assembly was specially made for the GP39 Model.

1195066-LB33-15

AS YOUR SOIL GETS RICHER SO DO YOU

The GP39 Frames are designed to be used with the latest Yeomans SHANK with its 22” (560mm) under frame clearance. The 22” SHANK has a ½” (12.7mm) shear pin which ensures a tip break force between 3 and 3.5 tonnes. This guarantees the GP39 will rip through the toughest soils.

RESEARCH STATION AT FOREFRONT The Queensland Government says vital research at the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) Applethorpe Research Facility is helping Queensland farmers produce more attractive, flavoursome and robust strawberries.

Visiting the facility last week Minister for Agricultural Industry Development Mark Furner said the Queensland Government's Australian Strawberry Breeding Program was targeting our three major strawberry production regions - temperate, subtropical and Mediterranean - to get the best fruit.

"Breeding trials at Applethorpe during 2018 have developed two new varieties, Summer Song and Scarlet-silk, which are being trialled this season by strawberry producers in Queensland, Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia," Mr Furner said.

"In addition, our strawberry breeding team has just commenced a new five-year $8.6 million dollar National Strawberry Varietal Development Program, co-funded

by Hort Innovation, to deliver new and improved varieties to all production regions in Queensland."

More broadly, Queensland's $3 billion fruit and vegetable production industry had benefitted from research into a range of issues.

"DAF researchers are involved in important projects to support and enhance Queensland's well-earned reputation for producing some of the world's safest produce," Mr Furner said.

Applethorpe Research Station. (File image).

"The Applethorpe Research Facility is the hub of research activity for a $16.6 million five-year project to improve the resilience of crops against viral and bacterial diseases.

"This will see the development of an area wide management strategy to address high priority viral and bacterial diseases affecting vegetable crops."

Mr Furner said Applethorpe was also renowned for the development of the disease-resistant Kalei apple.

"The Kalei is currently being commercialised by Apple and Pear Australia Limited (APAL), the same company looking after Pink Lady on a global scale," he said.

"We are still evaluating other promising disease resistant lines from this initial breeding program which commenced 25 years ago.

"The department is also working on high density growing systems including trellises, researching rootstocks, plant densities,

row spacing and crop load management to maximise yields. The trials show the potential of producing 100t/ha where industry common practice has only resulted in half that amount.

"DAF staff at Applethorpe have also supported and enabled the formation of a Granite Belt Growers Group whose first annual general meeting will be held on 29 November 2018." ●

WOMAN IN COURT OVER NEEDLES IN STRAWBERRIES authorities notified the public of the safety risk on Wednesday 12 September.

"The QPS coordinated a national investigative response with multiple government, law enforcement and intelligence agencies," the statement said.

"A police taskforce was established with officers from the State Crime Command coordinating the investigation together with detectives in a number of police districts in Queensland.

"A 50-year-old woman was arrested on Sunday afternoon and has been charged with seven counts contamination of goods under Section 238 Criminal Code, which has a three year maximum penalty.

"In addition, a circumstance of aggravation will be alleged, elevating the

maximum to 10 years imprisonment."

"While the investigation is far from over, I would like to acknowledge the tireless effort of our investigators as well as members from all other agencies across Australia who played a role.

BE A DINNER WINNER Government says changes will address labour shortages.

CHANGES TO VISAS ARE WELCOMED The Federal Government last week announced changes to the Working Holiday Maker and Seasonal Workers Programme (SWP) visas growers rely on to address labour challenges in Australia.

Apple and Pear Australia (APAL) says changes to the Working Holiday Maker program will let backpackers qualify for a third year in Australia by performing additional work in regional industries like agriculture, and will raise the age limit for program participation from 30 to 35 years.

The SWP allows workers from Pacific Island nations and Timor Leste to live and work in Australia across multiple work periods, and will be modified to extend each work period to nine months and reduce out-of-pocket expenses for employers.

"This is a good first step," said APAL's Head of Advocacy and Government Relations, Jeremy Griffith.

"We're pleased the government is listening, and we'd like to work towards flexibility for working conditions to make sure the industry has the workers it needs.

That said, there is still a long way to go."

National Farmer's Federation President

Fiona Simson said in a statement that the NFF supported a multifaceted approach to solving the farm sector's chronic labour woes.

"The farm sector's labour crisis is not going away. Everyday, farmers, including fruit and vegetable growers, dairy farmers and grain producers, are struggling to find the workforce they need to get the job done," Ms Simson said.

"Today ... meaningful steps have been taken to support farmers in accessing labour and to ensuring workers are not subject to exploitation."

Voice of Horticulture Chair Tania Chapman said the horticulture industry welcomed every opportunity to fill the huge labour void in the horticulture workforce.

"It is a much better solution than forcing Australians to work in a job that they don't want," Ms Chapman said.

"At the end of the day, growers have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in their farms, and producing their crops, and they cannot afford to invest in people who are unable to do the work, or who are not interested in doing the work." ●

The minutes of the minute refer to the work involving "minimisation of asbestos risks, installation of irrigation and electrical conduiting". ●

THE SPIN

THOROUGHBREDS ARE WELL VALUED The Melbourne Cup Carnival wound to a close last Saturday after another week of spectacular racing. Kieran McEvoy cemented his place as one of the great riders with a beautiful ride to win the Cup on lightweight visitor Cross Counter. The win gave the Godolphin stable the Cup win they have been chasing for over 20 years.

There was of course a Cup casualty.

Sadly CliffsofMoher fractured his shoulder leaving the straight the first time and had to be put down, causing outrage from those who obviously know little about the racing industry.

No-one hurts more than those close to a horse when these things happen. It is not just in racing that these things occur.

They can happen just as easily to a horse running in a paddock.

While racing has its detractors and activists call for bans of all sorts there does not seem to be the same hue and cry when a jumping, eventing or polocrosse horse is injured and suffers a similar fate. Is that because equestrian sports are less high profile? Nor does there seem to be any outcry about the number of horses that are left in paddocks under a mountain of rugs and hoods in sweltering conditions.

Then of course there are the poor animals that are tethered on a rope with little feed and not much water.

Yes it is tragic to see a magnificent well cared for horse lose its life but don't for a moment think that the people involved don't care.

If you need confirmation of how much horses mean to their owners and trainers you needed to look no further than the connections of the third place getter in Thursday's Oaks, Miners Miss. The owner and trainer was 82 years young Paddy Payne (Snr) and the horse was ridden by daughter Michelle Payne. The sheer delight and love on the wily octogenarian's face would dispel any doubt surrounding how loved and cared for racehorses are.

In a much sadder footnote to Melbourne Cup day we woke on Wednesday to the news that popular stud master at Raheen Stud Basil Nolan Jnr had lost his life over night in a tragic accident.

Nolan has been remembered far and wide as an all round great bloke and an outstanding leader in the breeding field alongside the Raheen team.

Nolan's commitment and contribution to the industry and the local community will be so sadly missed.

He will be farewelled today, Thursday 15 November, at an 11am service at St Mary's in Warwick. Words cannot express the sadness of an entire community at his passing and our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Natalie, their children, his parents Basil and Diane and extended family.

- Casey WILDCATS HOST GF The Warwick Wildcats defeated Saints last Saturday night in the major semi final of the Heathley Big Q League they will host the defending premiers USQ in the grand final to be played on Saturday night at WIRAC. The Wildcats scored a 99-91 win over Saints booking their place in the grand final and earning the right to host the game.

Warwick did it the hard way trailing 27-25 at quarter time. In a see-sawing game Warwick hit back and led 55-49 at the major break. The third quarter was a thriller and 26 SOUTHERN FREE TIMES

By the time the pair reached the back nine Kelly's playing partner had warmed to the task and lent a hand on the back nine. The club was pleased to welcome sponsors, Bob Peirce and his wife.

Unfortunately, Bob was unable to compete due to recent foot surgery but was able to give members a short account on the history of the trophy during the presentations.

Trish Fittock held the ladies pin at 12 and Nikki Waterworth had best approach at 17.

TOP START TO SEASON FOR WANDERERS Wanderers continued their impressive start to the 2018/19 cricket season last weekend.

After a win over South's in the previous fixture Wanderers scored an emphatic win against Tenterfield last weekend.

Playing on the CF White Oval, freetimes.com.au

email: wickets-stpe@bigpond.com

Playing on the CF White Oval, Wanderers won the toss and elected to bat. It proved to be a good option however Tenterfield did make a good start with the ball.

Geoff Swan removed Wanderers opener Chris Williams cheaply and a few balls later his opening partner Mitch Drayton was dismissed by Shaun Merchant and the score was 2/14 midway through just the third over.

Unfortunately for Tenterfield supporters their joy was short lived as the loss of those wickets brought Jamie Carnell and Brock Patti to the wicket.

Carnell anchored the innings scoring a superb knock of 115 and along the way combined for some handy partnerships with Brock Patti (29) Andrew Einam and Tim Harslett (33).

When Alan Donges finally claimed Carnell's wicket the score was 5/241. The innings included 10 boundaries and three sixes. At the close of the innings Wanderers had set Tenterfield a mammoth run chase of 291.

Tenterfield bowlers Merchant, Savins and Fowler each took two wickets. Merchant also took two catches.

The run chase always looked a mountain too high for the Tenterfield batting line up however in a gritty performance they turned in their best performance by far this season.

Opener Nick Savins found himself back in the clubhouse after only a couple of overs with the core at 1/5. Veteran Alan Donges (23) showed all of his experience trying to guide the side out of trouble but when he was caught by Mitch Drayton off the bowling of Chris Williams after 10 overs and with the score at 2/50. Danny Potter top scored with 39 and Shaun Merchant's 28 was handy but Tenterfield failed to build solid partnerships.

The Wanderers bowling attack proved too strong and their opponents were all out for 139 in the 31st over.

Eddie Filmer (3/27 from six overs) and Chris Williams (3/45 from eight) shared the bowling honours.

The win puts Wanderers in second spot on the ladder with 10n points. They will be looking to cement second spot this weekend with a win over Valleys.

SOUTH'S ON THE BOARD South's bounced back from a shaky start to the season last weekend scoring their first win in 2018/19. They proved too strong for Valleys when they met on Sheehan Oval.

CASEY O’CONNOR

Jamie Carnell was in excellent touch with the bat on the CF White Oval in the Wanderers game against Tenterfield.

South's Mark Lanza positions himself to take the catch to dismiss Valleys' David Marino.

Batting first on what looked to be a good batting wicket South's took full advantage of an under strength Valley's bowling attack.

South's Captain and opener Ben Staley had a welcome return to form. He topped the scoring with an unbeaten 122. His innings overshadowed a great performance from fellow opener Sach Singh who played out of his skin to score 91 in an opening partnership that yielded 175 runs. Singh fell just short of his ton when he was trapped LBW by Anthony Coup in the 28th over.

The openers played plenty of aggressive shots and Staley racked up 15 boundaries and three sixes in his score. His opening partner was not shy in finding the boundary either. Singh's 91 came off just 65 balls and included 13 fours and one six. Liam Lanza was another to find some welcome form with the bat. He added an unbeaten 33 before the innings closed with South's at 2/277.

Faced with a big run chase Valleys needed to start their inning well.

Unfortunately opener Kirby Morunga fell for 13 caught behind off the bowling of Cameron. Fellow opener Curtis Allen top scored and showed plenty of determination on his way to 64 as his batting partners fell by the wayside. Cameron Crestani (19) was the only other batsman to show any resistance. When Allen was dismissed in the 25th over the score was 7/128 and a win to South's looked inevitable. The final three batsmen added 24 before Valleys were dismissed for 153 in the 34th over.

Alex Cameron took the bowling honours taking three wickets while Scott Williams and Dan Davies each bagged two wickets.

Once again some inconsistent bowling added 39 extras to the Valleys scorecard.

The win puts South's on the score board but they will Sneed to be at the top of their game when they face RSL in a replay of last season's grand final this weekend.

MARYVALE ENJOY THAT WINNING FEELING Defending Premiers Maryvale Condamine put together back to back wins with an impressive win over Allora at Slade Park in Round Four of the Condamine Cup last weekend.

Maryvale had first use of the wicket and set Allora a 253 run target after some impressive batting performances. Pat Bourke opened the batting and topped the scoring with a good knock of 86 before being run out by Sean Bryson with just a couple of overs remaining in the innings.

He was well supported by the well travelled Lee Watts who scored 56 runs and his brother Tom Bourke.

Pat Bourke's 86 follows a successful outing for the Darling Downs team at the South Queensland under-21 championships where he scored 66 runs.

Captain Nick Goltz took the bowling honours taking 2/35 but the batsmen also had some problems putting away Matthew Higgins and spinner Sean Bryson.

It was Sean Bryson who topped the scoring for Allora as they tried to chase down the big total. He was dismissed for 97 when Paul Bourke took a good catch off the bowling of Lee Watts.

Bryson had earlier combined with fellow opener Mitch Siebenhausen (35) for a solid opening partnership that netted over

50 runs and put Allora in a good position early in theire innings. Unfortunately the Maryvale bowling attack got the better of the batting and wickets fell steadily. Allora were dismissed for 196.

The Maryvale players wore black arm bands in their Sunday game as a mark of respect for Basil Nolan Jnr who was a great supporter of the club and on played with the club in Australia Day carnivals.

In other games in round four Sovereign scored an upset win over Redbacks, Sovereign set the 2017/18 grand finalists a hefty 231 run chase after some good batting performances.

Luke Cullen (75) top scored for Sovereign while Ben Heppell was the best of the Redbacks' bowlers. Also among the wicket takers was Daniel Bowles (2/23) The Redbacks normally solid battling line up let them down in the run chase.

James Kurtz (34) top scored while Ben Heppell proved his all round value scoring 31 after earlier taking three wickets.

Strong bowling performances from the Sovereign bowlers saw Redbacks bundled out for 168. Tim Drennert (3/15) and Caleb King 3/17 were the best with the ball or Sovereign In another high scoring game Colts chased down Victoria Hill's total of 200 to claim a win.

Lachlan Gross (71) and John Cleary (40) led the charge after a spirited batting performance from their opponents.

Scott McLennen (31) and B Duff (30) helped Victoria Hill to 200 but Colts proved too strong. Harry Shooter finished the innings with 1/1 for Victoria Hill. ●
