Lake King is a town in the Eastern Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, from Perth along ''State Route 107'' between Wagin and Ravensthorpe. Lake King is named after a nearby lake which in turn was named after the Surveyor General of Western Australia, Henry Sandford King, by Marshall Fox, the surveyor from Narrogin. Settlers began arriving in the area in 1928 shortly after the area was surveyed and land was released. The town struggled through the depression but thrived in the postwar years on the back of high wool and wheat prices.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The history of Lake King )〕 The Lake King Progress Association lobbied the government to declare a townsite in 1935 and the town was gazetted in 1936. The surrounding areas produce wheat and other cereal crops. The town is a receival site for Cooperative Bulk Handling.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CBH receival sites )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lake King, Western Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
