AUSTRALIAN' TRADE.

WHAT SHE CAN SUPPLY.

„INTERESTING SHANGHAI EXHIBITION.

Chicese opinion on the subject of i what the Australian market has to offer may, says the North China Daily Nars, be said to correspond roughly with the average Briton's conception of it is the Far East. The views of both would undergo considerable revision were they to examine some of the samples shown at an exhibition of manufactured products and food stuffs being held at the offices of Mr. E. S. Little, Australian Trade Commissioner.

Most of us know that Australia is the greatest wool producing country in the world, that the Commonwealth is famous for its cattle and cereals (particularly wheat) but we only think of its trade as being in the main carried on with the Mother Country, For this reason and the fact that there are signs of distinct interest locally in what Australia can supply not only as a primary producing country, but largely as a manufacturing country

Several of the manufactured pro ducts on view or described by the Trade Commissioner to a N.C. Daily News representative are of much interest to foreign residents in the Far East, such as stoves and other domestic necessities. One big bard- ware firm supplies metal ceilings, of extremely artistic design, which should fod a ready sale in such places as Shangbal where ordinary plaster ceilings rot through dampness in a very few years.

Taking the exhiɓks as a whole it can be said that there is a vast field for expansion of Australian trade in China but chiefly in fleece, woollens, 'butter, jams, preserved frults and hard-

ware.

As in the case of America some 20 years ago Australian export trade has suffered through bad packing for export. These difficulties have Dow been surmounted, and an Australian has patented a pilferproof case, which should appeal to abippers and be of great importance in the insuring of goods.

A meeting will be held under the auspices of the Trade Commissioner at the General Chamber of Com merce, I Yuenmingyuen Road, with a view to drawing attention to the volume of trade that can be done between this port and Australia. On the following evening a reception will be given to Chinese mercka: ts at the Yih Ping Shang Hotel for a similar purpose.
