COUNTRY CORRESPONDENCE, YORKE VALLEY. Fri 4 Oct 1872

The important fact that about 30,000 acres of country lands have been declared open for selection at Yorke Valley induced us to request the visit of an experienced representative, who returned from the neighbourhood a few days ago, Yorke Valley is a station about 30 miles from Moonta, and is reached by the road passing by Tiparra, Moore's hut, and an unoccupied - out-station called Warawurlie, the latter being between three and four miles from Mr. Rogers's home station. The run extends towards Moonta a great many miles—we should be afraid to say how many —but the land surveyed for agricultural settlement comprises about 50 square miles within the two hundreds of Maitland and Kilkerran. Within two miles or so easterly of the Warawurlie but a reserve has been made for township and suburban allotments, and is already divided and pegged out, although it subdivisions art not shewn on the plan of country lands for selection. Within a few miles of this reserve the s lector would have little difficulty in fixing on some good looking sections, although the surface is sadly marred by the prevalence of "black grass" in tufts, which so far detracts from the value of the herbage that the proprietor of the run estimates two- thirds of its area is thus occupied, to the exclusion of more satisfactory feeding grasses. It may be seen by the Gazette that three sections carry weight to the extent of nearly £2,000 for improvements, and for this and other reasons there is little cause to expect that they will be eagerly competed for. In the immediate vicinity of the home station the ground has been cleared of "black grass" by folding the sheep on it, and there, and in a few old out-stations and camping places, the ground is beautifully carpeted with low, sweet grass. Around the home station the undulating nature of the ground, the pleasant sward and the carefully preserved shea-oaks, give quite a delightful and sylvan aspect to the place, much enhanced by the buildings with walls of the whitest and roofs of thatch. It is thought that the distance from Moonta might be much decreased were a road more easterly and less circuitous to be defined, and as the northerly sections are fully five miles from the home station, there can be little doubt that they might be reached in somewhere about 20 miles. Until, however, a new and better road is made persons visiting Yorke Valley will act wisely in adhering to the old way, and eschewing the nasty tracts of scrub in a north and north-easterly direction from the new township.
Mr. Rogers and lady are too well known to make needful any extended reference to the courtesy and hospitality which our representative received. Sheep-shearing was full swing, and the busy scene was well worth some trouble to view. Including some dozen shearers, the number of hands grabbed at the men's hut was about 35, and their behoof two sheep daily were committed to the camp-oven, with vegetables, bread, tea, &c., in proportion. It may be worthy of remark that the clip is usually lightered from Parara, or rather Clay Cully, having been previously dumped at Yorke Valley so to need no further manipulation beyond hoisting at Port Ade-Lauderdale into one of the liners, en route for England. It is in the vicinity of Parara that so important a discovery of copper ore has been made within a few days, and in view of the very important light in which it is regarded, and the consequent rise of a new settlement there, there is some probability of Clay Gully becoming an intermediate stage in our communication with the metropolis. Four hours poaching from Moonta, and four hours steaming from Clay Gully, it is said, would enable us to reach Port Adelaide. If so, there would be few in favour of our continuing the present circuitous aud wearisome route. This topic will, however, well bear further discussion and consideration, and these are certain to be bestowed on it if the agricultural importance of Yorke Valley and the metallic treasures of Parara should prove substantial and permanent.

THE YORKE'S PENINSULA AGRICULTURAL LAND. Tue 8 Oct 1872
In another column appeal- some particulars as to the selections of land in Yorke Valley, Hundred of Maitland, and we now give the following detailed statement from the
Advertiser:—
In the area offered the road and reserve had been cut off of Sections 40 and 41, so as to secure the well to the public, and access to it from each of the leading lines of road. The remainder of these two sections, comprising the head station, was selected by Mr. Rogers, the lessee of the land, without opposition.
The applications for the other lands varied in some cases from one or two applications to 12 simultaneous applications for one section, and during the limited auction that ensued the price was run up by competition in some instances as high as £4 2s. an acre—thus doubling the upset price fixed by law. About 10,000 acres were selected in all.

Notes
In 1869, South Australia changed the method of purchasing Crown Lands from prepayment for cash to a credit scheme. The names of successful selectors were published in the SA Parliamentary Papers (PP) and the SA Government Gazettes (GG). This searchable database of 22,200 purchases by credit selection covers the period 1869-90. Land transfers up to 1893 are included.
