the year round; houses may be of exceed- ingly light construction and yet perfectly comfortable; men may camp in the open without a tent, and outdoor existence is by far the most pleasurable method of enjoying life. This mildness of climate is a matter of great importance to Bettlers, as it materially reduces the cost of farming, both by reason of the fact that live stock requires little or no artificial shelter, and that harvesting operations are greatly facilitated.

The range of commercial crops is wide; the opportunities to crop the same land twice within the same year are consider- oble, and the range of natural and artificial fodders is without parallel in any country. The native grauses, herbage, and fodder plants of Australia place the Commonwealth in a pre-eminent position as a pastoral.country. To the man who devotes a large portion of his farm to the cultivation of turnips or mangels, who has to laboriously prepare the seed-bed with expensive and heavily dress fertilisers every square yard of his pasture, and who has to stall-feed bie cattle and sheep and expoad large sums in oil-cake to top them for market, it may seem incredible, but is nevertheless a lact, that on the native pastures of Australia cattle and sheep will attain a greater weight more speedily than in possible in Great Britain or the United States.

With no other crop feed than the native grass they during the night-halt, and for an hour or sa at noon, horses perform long and arduous journeys in teams, and in the saddle.
