His move to Toora is not known in detail, but was known there in 1908. In 1911 he was farming on the share system the property of Mr R H Downing about 1km from the Toora Station on the railway line. He was very profitably milking 65 cows throughout the year with the cream going to the Foster butter factory and the skim milk going to 9 brood sows. Pumpkins were used to provide solid feed for the pigs.
He farmed at Clanville, Kardella South in the period around 1917. His letter of 17 Oct 1917 is on the subject of an appeal for eggs and how it might be better arranged while his 28 Nov 1918 letter (both to the Great Southern Advocate) favours a dry Korumburra Agricultural Show. He won a prize for maize-growing at the 1921 Korumburra A&P Society competitions.
He was living in East Malvern around 21 May 1929 when he wrote to The Argus on his recollections of Cobb&Co. He attended the 50 year jubilee of St Marks Warragul on 6 Dec 1930 and spoke on the occasion. The obituary of EC Lousada in the Warrugul and West Gippsland Gazette of 5 April 1932 refers to a brother-in-law C S Affleck living close by in Tetoora.
