ENTERPRISING AUSTRALIA.
Experimental Work 011 Its Own
Farm.
A. splendid example of GOVernment-
al enterprise Is in operation la West-
ern Australia. Dior some time past
the Oovernment have been endeavor-
ing to encourage emigration to West-
ern AusLralia, and havo based this
encouragement upon a system of ex-
perimental work and research in the
; colony itself which Is Justified by the
I resillift. The reSollreeS olT the 001.211-
1.ry have been tested in every Way,
nnel the Agent-Gem:gal does not hesi-
tate to advocate the possibility of
the creation of au important, trade
11) ngriculteral products with the
Mother Country.
To demonetrate this possibility en
exhibition of the actual peoduce of
Western Australia was even last
week in the &Trees of the Agent -Gen-
eral for Western Australia in Lon-
don. Excellent; specimens of all
kinds of cereale were shown, wheat,
barley, melee, Week, and white oate,
rye, leas, and a variety of Austral-
ian grown apples. The reports ot
experts upon the latter justify the
optimistic anticipations regerding
the ultimate pogielon to be attained
by Weetern Australian entries in the
home markets. The samples shown
including Ruch wc11.11nown Ntariettes
