Cultivation on the Logan, c1880. Logan Witness 14 August 1880 The Resources of the Logan. The Pimpama Arrowroot Industry. ( ) To anyone travelling by coach from Brisbane to the south a great deal of the sugar growing and farming of the district is not seen, and one may come to the conclusion that hardly any agriculture is carried on extensively with out they take the trouble to veer into the nooks and corners of our different rivers and creeks, Till very lately not much arrowroot was cultivated that could be seen from the main road; but this is being gradually altered, and more interest attaches to the industry day by day as it increases. Arrowroot has been cultivated at different places with varying success, but at Pimpama, owing principally to the excellency of the water, which is perfectly more than in any other place to have made headway. The late Mr. Francis Lahey was the first at Pimpama some years ago to practically open out arrowroot cultivation and manufacture upon a payable scale. He succeeded remarkably well, and in the beginning of the industry the prices were high enough to make very respectable profits. And although the prices are not half now, the sons of the deceased gentleman still carry on in his name, and designate themselves F. Lahey and Sons. This last season these enterprising young gentlemen undertook the task of erecting new and improved machinery a little way below the site of their old and successful factory, and have now just got into thorough working order for the present season ; and being in the district the other day we paid a visit to the works and plantation, and can now furnish our agricultural friends and those interested in the industry a full and authentic account of the same. In wending our way up the Hotham Creek from near the Pimpama National School, we are presently within a fine gorge between the Pimpama and Darlington ranges and those of the Coomera. The gorge now and again swells out into a magnificent amphitheatre, c
