These rich flats are what is termed by the department of agriculture of the United States as Puget silty clay and Puget silty loam, and are the richest lands in the United States. This fact you can ascertain by viewing the farms adjoining that are now under cultivation. These great delta flats were formed by the silt from the Skagit river that has been deposited for ages at the mouth of this great river that has brought down the voleanic ash and decayed yegetable matter from the mountain sides drained by this majestic river.
