toned to the peculiarities of the
country than do the hills. Both are
covered with brown sage brush and
bunch grass.
But here and there the possibilities
of the country are shown by some
enterprising farmer who has placed
a water wheel in the river and in this
way pumps water onto the tablelands
beside the stream. 1t is an economi-
cal method of irrigation, and one pc
culiar to this section of the country,
where the swift current of the Co.
lumbia furnishes the power to work
the wheel as well as the water to
moisten the ground above. When this
has been done these tablelands of the
Columbia become veritable agricul-
tural paradises. Crops of all kinds
flourish upon them, and the orchards
are the wonder of every visitor.
But what lies back of these hills?

Gregg, of the steamer Sell1irk, as
stood beside him in the pilot house
on the way up the river.
wheat" he answered.
And wheat it is. Such wheat as but
few eastern farms know. Wheat that
during the past season runs as high
as so bushels to the acre, and that not
upon one acre alone, but upon the
many.
The Big Bend country of Washing
ton is as great wheat farm in a
small way as are the plains of the
Dakotas or Manitoba. The territory
is not so large, but the crops per
acre will equal or exceed those of
any of the other wheat producing

the captain.
Between one and two million BUSH
els" he replied. From now until
next spring practically all of our four
boats will be kept busy carrying
grain.
1t is in this way that much of the
crop of this territory reaches the
markets. First, in wagons to the
warehouses, high up on the bluffs of
the river, then down the long chutes,
sack after sack, and then down the
river to the railroad, where it is scat
tered east and west. Some to the
great elevators at Duluth, Minneapo-
lis, st. Paul and Chicago, to go from
there again to the eastern states
and to Europe. Some to Seattle, Ia
coma, Everett and other western
ports and from there by steamer to
the countries of the far east, which
are beginning to appreciate American
wheat as a food product.

Mains Circus Here Tuesday.

Walter L. Mains circus gave after
noon and evening performances on
the island Tuesday, preceded by a
street parade at 10 o'clock. The show
was fairly good, but it lacked many Of
the features of some of the former
shows of about the same pretensions
which have exhibited in Brattleboro.
What was done was well done, but
there was no trapeze work, no chariot
races, and the work in the rings was
limited in amount. The somersault
work from a spring board was the
best that has been seen in Brattleboro
since Forepaugh exhibited here, and
the platform bicycle riding was won
derful. The performing on parallel bars
in mid air was a notable performance
and probably cannot be excelled. A
troupe of Sixth Cavalry rough riders
did some daring bareback riding in the
hippodrome, which enlivened the in
terest of the spectators. The menag-
erie was interesting, but lacked some
of the huge animals that excited the
wonder and amazement of the boys a
dozen years ago. The attendance in
the afternoon was good and in the
evening was small.
