A Cattle Raising Scheme Across Australia Plans
An Orange Nova Scotia syndicate has secured a 30 year lease on 7,000,000 acres in Esperance Bay Western Australia from the State Government for a nominal price. The land along the coast and near the trans Australian railway will be sold to American meat millionaires to establish a vast cattle ranche. Mr Crafford will travel to the United States to advance the project. An adjacent 2,000,000 acre block was sold earlier by the late Mr Dunlop.
