Copper Mining in New South

Il is not generally known that copper
mining is largely carried on In New
south Wales. where there are several
extensive mines. the most Important
being the Great Cobar, 487 miles west
of sydney, in the center OF the vast
plains That lie delwren the Macquarie
and the BoganriSer. The ore is 81 rich
and abundant that The industry Las
been o very profitable one until very
recent period, Notwithstanding the
great distance OF the mine from the
settled portions of the colony. The
produce of the mine has to be hauled by
wagons a distance " eighty miles 10
Nyngan. the nearest railroad station.
The industry has caused q large settle
meut to spring up at Cobar, and IL is es.
tma,ed that within a radius OF three
miles the population 10 between 300C
and 1000. The great CObar mine gives
employment TO about 800 persons. The
plants is the best IN Australia. The
company working the mine at present
experiences great difficulty il getting
the copper to market. Some metal tt
tie extent Of 500 tons is kept waiting
for taams TO carry il TO the railroad sta
t.0n. The number Of miners employed
IN the Cooar District aJ he eud OF 1885,
was 1902. The amount Of refined cop

Americans TO be Supplied With

There Is something striking in the
fact al the Efforts being made at the

money in active channels and there is
fair promise uf prodt.by transporting

long distances from the point of con-
sumption.
A syndicate Of rich men are at pres

mp market in California for frozen

OF this meat have been distributed
among hotel keepers and other large
customers Ia san Francisco. and laside

is said to be very satisfactory. II seems
strange that there should be any
necessity for, or prospect for profit In
the importation Of frozen meat TO the
land Of the setting sun. With thous-
andG of leagues Of pasture land avail,
able Tor stock raising in this country
Il sees rs though there would be no
chance for competition. In California,
however, for some time. the meat sup
plies have been controlled by a ring.
and the New Zealanders claim they can
furnish equally AS good beef for eight
cents per pound less than rs now being
paid, which would leavea margin Of
two cents per pound profit. This pro-
position is under consideration by the
authorities TO lease the new company
stalls In the public market where they
can retail the imported meat and thus
save the profit paid TO the mIddlemen.
The question winch vexes the Cali
fornians is. how do we know whether
this meat is healthy or noty as IL IS
frozen like a board and must be eaten
as soon as thawed.- International Live
