ca. 1908. A scene in the Big Bend, circa 1908. Threshing 3 miles south of Waterville, Washington. This area of north central Washington State was a wheat farming community. The fertile soil, dry summers and heavy snows in winter produced abundant crops. During the past season circa 1907, however, wheat ran from twelve to thirty bushels per acre, a lighter yield than normal but as prices remained good, the farmer did not lose in the long run. The town of Waterville became the Douglas County seat in 1887, and according to its Chamber of Commerce, farming remains a mainstay of the local economy.
