Abstract

"The month has been favorable for plowing and putting in fall grain. The Indians of the agency have never manifested as much interest in farming as this fall. They are constantly making improvements, fencing, plowing and teaming during the month 32 four horse teams have been sent to the Dalles on the Columbia river for freight purchased by your agent and discharged at the Dalles, 65 miles from the station. Owing to the snow on the mountains fifteen of the teams were obliged to travel at least one hundred miles from the Dalles to the agency."
