Excerpt from Oceania: A Supplementary Geography

During recent years Australia and the islands of the Pacific have attracted much attention. In these times of hunger for land, Australia is one of the few areas toward which settlers with limited means can turn. This is because the country is very sparsely populated, which in turn is the natural result of light rainfall in most of the continent.
