Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Agriculture in Minnesota In 1859 and 1860, all the grain was handled in seamless sacks; at first they started at 125 bags to a carload then they got up to 140, and, as long as it moved in sacks, 140 sacks was the limit, a little over eight tons to the carload. Later they did without the sacks by building bulk barges, lined on the inside and with cargo boxes with covers over them to keep the grain dry; and in that way it was transported in bulk. Milwaukee was practically the market for all our grain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Surface Formations and Agricultural Conditions of the South Half of Minnesota Classic Reprint written by Frank Leverett and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Surface Formations and Agricultural Conditions of the South Half of Minnesota Soil is the loose unconsolidated material which nearly everywhere covers the surface of the earth and in which plant life may be maintained. It is made up of finely divided rock in which decaying vegetable matter and animal matter are mingled. A soil is generally in a state of change. It is being washed little by little to the creeks and rivers which carry it to the sea, where it often forms delta deposits; if no new soil formed, hard rock would finally be exposed instead of the loose plant-producing soil. But rocks at and near the surface are continually changing and new soil is being formed from the underlying rock or from loose clayey or gravelly material that may constitute the subsoil, or from bowldery material that at many places in Minnesota lies between the hard rock and the soil. Water and air attack rock matter and break it down. Heat and cold, freezing and thawing, shatter the rocks and give plants an Opportunity to send roots into the cracks that are formed, and these, prying the rocks apart, reduce them to particles of still smaller size. Even the hard solid rocks are ultimately broken down; a building of good solid stone may crumble in a few hundred years, especially in a moist climate. Some of the rocky matter is dissolved by the water and carried to the sea in solution. It is such dissolved material that makes water hard and that gathers in the bottom of a vessel when water is boiled. But not all of the soluble substances are dissolved and carried away; some remain in the soil, and the character of the soil depends largely upon these. Some soils are acid because they have not enough lime. Some are deficient in potash or phosphates, which are necessary if soil is to produce certain crops satisfactorily.

Download or read book A History of the Swedish Americans of Minnesota Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by A. E. Strand and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Swedish-Americans of Minnesota, Vol. 1 As these were the dominant traits of the pioneer immigrants, and are still the characteristics of the Swedish - Americans of today, this work is largely devoted to the history of the large part which they have played in the growth of agriculture, business and industries of Minnesota, and the splendid work of consecrating so large a share of their lives to the founding and promotion of educational and religious institutions. The remark has been well made that the Swedish - Americans of today more closely abide by the conscientious and religious spirit of the Puritans of New England than any other element of American nationality. This statement is fully borne out by this work; and an addition may be made to the effect that in the swedish-americans, both of Minnesota and the Union, may be found one of the strong safeguards against the establish ment of frivolity and irreligion as dominant traits of the national character.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beltrami Island Farms: Minnesota Most of the land to which the more recent settlers have migrated, particularly during the depression years, was cut - over land Which origi nally had been either swamp or poorly drained upland, impossible to farm unless artificially drained. Extensive drainage systems were constructed in some parts of the area; but many of them later proved to be impractical because much of the brush and swamp land remained unproductive even when drained. The high expense of drainage which was assessed against the land could not, in most cases, be paid. After the timber was gone the settlers' cash income was not large enough to pay the heavy ditch liens, and tax delinquency mounted. Various acts were passed by the state legislature to relieve this situation, but they brought only temporary relief to the pe0p1e who had lost their main livelihood when the large lumber mills moved out.

Download or read book Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society Vol 10 Classic Reprint written by Minnesota Historical Society and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society, Vol. 10 The narratives of the earliest travels and exploration by Europeans within the area that is now Minnesota, written by one of the two hardy adventurers whose experiences are there chronicled, remained unknown to historians during more than two hundred years. This precious manuscript record, beginning the history of the occupation of our state by white men, is said by its editor, Gideon D. Scull, of London, to have been "for some time the property of Samuel Pepys, the well-known diarist, and Secretary of the Admiralty to Charles II and James II. He probably received it," as the editor further states, "from Sir George Cartaret, the Vice-Chamberlain of the King and Treasurer of the Navy, for whom it was no doubt carefully copied out from his rough notes by the author, so that it might, through him, be brought under the notice of Charles II. Some years after the death of Pepys, in 1703, his collection of manuscripts was dispersed and fell into the hands of various London tradesmen, who bought parcels of it to use in their shops as waste-paper. The most valuable portions were carefully reclaimed by the celebrated collector, Richard Rawlinson." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
