Group of men in grain field. Could possibly be Bob Stott with his experimental growing at Borroloola.,
Notes
Date:191?,
Const. Bob Stott is the second man from left of photo in light coloured shirt with hat pushed high on forehead.
Northern Territory Times & Gazette, 8 December 1911 - "As a sequel to the above experiments severa1 samples of wheat grown down at Borroloola were received in Darwin on the 1ast return trip of the coastal steamer Nelson, comprising in all about 14 different varieties. This was planted by Mr. Stott some time before he left the McArthur River district, in some good black alluvial soil on the bank of a creek."
Police Corporal Robert Stott was transferred from Boroloola to Alice Springs in Sept 1911, so the photo was presumably taken in that year.
