The Irwin River Coalfield Discovery and Prospects
The Irwin River coalfield near Geraldton saw early interest from State Geologist Gregory and later exploration by Robynx and Johnstone. A 17 ton sample yielded a modest boom, then 27 years of little activity before a new strike in mid last year produced a seam with tests from the Mines Department showing improved quality. Commerical trials indicated low smoke and few sparks, but water flood limited thickness. exploration continues with support from Tokastone and party. Local output remains minor, with West Australian coal mainly used for locomotives.

Enterprise of Messrs Wister Bidt and Co. Builds Auxiliary Boat Era
Mr Nelson representing the firm introduces the Era as an auxiliary boat fitted by Wister Bidt and Co. The 47 ton Sydney built vessel, with 39 hp motor, undertook a two hour trial around the coast. The party praised the enterprise, noting the Era's potential to advance fishing and ensure a steadier supply to the market. The Era, launched 1840, sails from Hobson's Bay Melbourne, later operated on the north coast for fishing. The owners plan Shark's Bay transport runs, with eight knots speed and a 930 hp engine, including an ice chamber for eight tons. The venture is seen as boosting the industry and market supply.
