Ready Market.

From Our Own Correspondent.

Pt. Moresby, Jan. 17.

MR. G. A. LOUDEN has always found a ready market in Australia for the Robusta coffee grown on his estate, Eilogo, in the hills about 30 miles behind Port Moresby.

He has shipped up to 67 bags per steamer to Melbourne, and has been receiving a good price for his product.

At least one buyer in Melbourne is eager to get Papuan coffee, and has intimated that he will absorb a much greater output. A bag of Papuan Ro busta coffee weighs about 70 lbs.
