Adauis, in the Caseades, in! ‘an easterly direction until they ter- ‘tuinate in low hills near the junction of Suake and Clark’s branches of ;the Columbia. These hills or moun | ins lie between us and the Yak ima valley to our north, which is jmuch warmer than here, on account lof its being more than onze This, Klicki | thousand feet lower. | tat county, is one hundred und thir- | ty-one miles long from east to west and from thirty to fifty miles wide. It is principally a bunch grass country and adapted to stock rais- ing more than to agriculture. The soil is very good from two to four |feet deep. The trouble is there is not enough moisture through the summer to insure a crop, and anoth- er drawback to farming is that the Jand is all cut up by swails, or rocky depressions, running in all directions through theland. These are just | the depth of the soil and where we have deep swails we have deep soil. A man thinks he has an extra good claim if he gets one hundred acres of plow and on a quarter section; its above an average and then its all in patches. To look over it it ap- pears to be a level country, but when we start to travel we find deep eanyous from 300 to 800 feet deep and generally very rocky. I know ranchers who live one and two miles apart that have to travel fifteen and twenty to get to each other by wag- oa. We are about 3,000 feet above the Columbia river and only twenty miles away, but still we have very good roads over which to haul grain to market, as its down hill all the way. Our grain market is very poor as the riyer is in the way, and at present there are no boats on the riv- er, but the boats areto be put on this summer and then the grain can be marketed on this side. Arling- ton, Ore., is the prizcipal shipping point for a large section of country on both sides of the river. We have both a steam and sail ferry boat at that place. Twety bushels of wheat per acre is considered a fair crop here, but it sometimes reaches 30 and over. Some oats and barley are raised but the principal crop is wheat and sown mostly in the spring. All seed grain must be blue-stoned,thorough- | ly wet with vitriol water, before be- | This is to prevent smut Timothy cannot be raised here as it is too dry and wheat is cut for hay and sells at from six to ten dollars per ton. Wheat sells for about 50 ets per bushel. So it sometimes pays better t> cut for hay as there is} most always a demand for that by sheep men. The range is about gone for cattle and horses as the bunch grass is all eatea out, but there has a little fine grass started which is much better for sheep, and consequenily the number of sheep is increasing rap idly and horses and cattle are de- creasing and very cheap. I saw very good young cows sell here this spring for $15, but the cattle are inferior to Missouri cattle. Good | young horses bring from $40 to $75. Some good horses are raised here, but they do not raise any mules at all. I have been here one year now and have never seen a negro since I came here, but instead of them we have plenty of Indians and China- men, ind its not uncommon to see {forty or fifty Indians (Siwashes)pass along the road in one day. To the east of us about 40 miles lies what is called “Horse Hesven.” This is quite a large tract lying be- tween Yakima and Columbia rivers. It is a fine grass country but no wa- ter even to irrigate with and none to to be had by digging to an ordiniry depth.

The last of our snow- drifts have not been gone a week and within five miles of us there will be snow until June. That fell on the 21st of December. Work generally begins here about the time as there and most farmers are done seeding now. Wages are some higher here, ranch hands get $25 and sheep herders $35 per month, but the fellow that leaves Missouri and comes here for a “bo nanza” will miss it. | $35 sounds big toa man that only gets*$15 or $18 a month, but he earns it. The sheep are taken to the cascades in the summer as the grass all dries up here in July. A great many go to Mt. Adams and I think I can safely say that at Jeast 100,000 sheep find summer range around the base of Mt. Adams and its the same way at Mt. Hood on the other side. Two men are always sent with two thou- sand sheep, one herds and the other takes the pack horses and camp out fit and as the snow goes off they move higher up until it begins to fall in autumn and they come down as the snow drives them. It’s a com- mon occurrence for a sheep herder to get up and find his bed covered with snow. Last year there was more wool shipped from Arlington, Ore., than any other place in the United States. Go with me a few miles north to the summit of the Simcoe and I will give you a description of what we can see.

ASSAULTED BY A PRISONER. Guard Tucker Probably Fatally Cut by an Unruly Negro. Jefferson City, Mo, April 28.— James Smith, a negro convict work ing in the haruess department of the Straus Saddlery aud Harness shop at the penitentiary, assaulted Wm. Tucker, a guard, at noon today with a shoe kuive and inflicted several bad cuts before assistance: could reach Tucker. His wounds will prove fat.!, it is thought. Smith is a bad negro and considered one of the most unruly men in the prison and the only provocation he had for assaulting Tucker was that he re- ported him some weeks ago for in fraction of the rules. Immediately atier the cutting he was locked up in the solitary, and if his victim dies ke will be tried for murder.

We can look down the Yokima to its mouth and over its mouth and over its extensive sage brush valley and over all of Oregon that lies between the Columbia and Blue mountains. It is a grand sight | but in time it grows monotonous as} the beautiful cornfield to the Mis souri plow boy on a hot day—we have been there. You can see over an area of at least 15,000 square miles at once. Next to the river it is a sage brush plain, farther back bunch grass. It is mestly unsettled as there is neither timber nor water.
