THE AUSTRALIAN IRRIGATION COLONIES.

From the Speech of HIS EXCELLENCY the GOVERNOR of VICTORIA (LORD
HOPETOUN), in Laying the Foundation Stone of the CHAFFEY COLLEGE
of AGRICULTURE, at Mildura, in April 1891 :-

"I have long looked forward to the opportunity of seeing the settlement which has so
recently sprung into existence, and which appears to be growing in importance day by day.
I congratulate you upon the satisfactory report of the local health officer, and on the
fertility of your soil, so suitable alike for the growing of the orange, the vine, and other
fruit trees. 1 have been very much pleased with Mildura, and I think the success of the
enterprise will be a grand thing, not only for Victoria, but for the whole of Australia."

Established by Special Acts of the Colonial Parliaments, and Regulated by the Respective Governments. Offer a pleasant occupation-a healthy life-a cheerful home-a soil of unequalled fertility-producing by Irrigation results unparalleled in the annals of Horticulture-comfort, civilisation and material prosperity combined.

HALF A MILLION ACRES,

in the sunny and salubrious climate of Victoria and South Australia, on the great River Murray, which affords an abundant supply of fertilising water for the Irrigation of VINEYARDS and FRUIT FARMS, and for the production, in assured quantities and excellence of GRAPES, ORANGES, LEMONS, OLIVES, APRICOTS, FIGS, and other FRUIT (already so successfully grown in Australia), by Cultivators with large and small capital, holding from TEN to EIGHTY ACRES and upwards. The Wine and Fruits of Australia are now in extensive demand in ALL BRITISH and COLONIAL MARKETS, and there is a practically unlimited field for such production, under most profitable conditions to the Settlers.
