MUCH IN LITTLE Tests made in Great Britain have shown that excellent paper cam bs made of blue gum wood. Australia possesses an enormous supply of this wood, and steps are being taken to utifize it. The last internationel geological con- gress estimated the world's supply of iron ore at 24,408,800,000 tons, of which 12,032,000,000 toms are in Europe and 9,855,000,000 tons are in America. Mines in Saxony that have yielded silver worth more ‘than- $243,000,000 since they were dpened, more than 709 , are to be closed because of ued low price of the metal.
