Dubbo and the Cotton Gins
Description
Dubbo is Aussie slang for a person who is 'a little slow on the uptake'. Dubbo is also one of our largest regional centres, with the 300 hectare Western Plains Zoo being a major tourist attraction.
Cotton gins separate the cotton from the seed, a process which prior to the industrial revolution was done by hand.
