| dc.description.abstract | "When the first settlers came into the Yakima Valley they were not interested in farming for it seemed evident to them that the region was unfit for anything but grazing. Besides, the means of transportation were very meager and the population of the whole Northwest was small. Certainly there could be little incentive to engage in farming as an industry when there were no nearby important markets and no cheap means of transporting surplus products to those which were so remote. Moreover, cattle raising had proved itself to be a profitable industry and the cattlemen did not welcome the encroachments of the small farmer who fenced the lands which were particularly valuable as sources of pasturage, hay, and water." | en_US |
