Wakefield and his associates, in comparing Western Australia with South Australia to the disadvantage of the former, were apt to forget that the land around Perth had disappointed expectations, while that around Adelaide had justified the good opinions formed of it;"* so that, when the settlers ceased land speculatio...n and betook themselves to agriculture, their efforts were well rewarded.
