Our Irrigation Colony.
And the wilderness shall put on the glory of a fruitful garden ; the desert shall be made to blossom as the rose ; the dry land shall laugh with gladness ; the valley shall be filled with joy ; the husbandman shall reap the increase and enjoy the fruits of his labour under his own vine and fig tree.
All this has come to pass at Renmark, the irrigation colony of South Australia, situated on the banks of the River Mur- ray. As you visit one block and then another transforme...d in the space of a few years from a barren waste into gardens of loveliness you feel that Rabelais in his valley had not more reason to be happy than the men whose lot has been cast in such pleasant places. The lands assessed to the Irrigation Trust which controls the colony comprise about 3, 600 acres, and consist of apricots, 842 acres; peaches, 122; citrus, 318; vines, 1, 380; lucerne, 616; olives, 35; sundry fruit, 11, and cereal, 479 acres. The blocks are situated to the west of the township spread out in the shape of a fan.
