Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fruit of the Desert Yet, was it true that man was no better, no wiser, no stronger than the ant? Indeed, perhaps, was man below the ant in wisdom and in courage? The nature of Banor Gaul was not one to permit such thoughts passively to express themselves and to die without answer. Slowly in his consciousness evolved determination, and then a plan. If the society of human beings of which he had been born a member persisted, first, in fanning his as piring spirit into an activity which his fragile physique could not endure, and then in nursing and coddling him with such luxury and care that he was about to be smothered, had not life uttered to him, individually, a challenge?

How he made so prosperous a living none of his acquaintances could understand. Those who were in the ivory trade with him knew that he owed his good in come to a rare capacity for judging tusks by touch. It was a gift, inherited, as he believed, from his father, but more probably communi cated by imperceptible training while they were in business together. As the family grew, so did his business, and this was fortunate, for Mims had no money nor had he any private fortune. The men who travelled up and down with him every morning and evening between Ellerslie and the city used to tell each other that they ought to offer him sympathy rather than congratulations as each new baby arrived. Yet they could not see that his responsibilities made any mark upon him. He regarded children in exactly the same way as he regarded the weather; both came as it pleased some Superior Power; he had no control over either.

Book Synopsis Agriculture Without Irrigation in the Sahara Desert (Classic Reprint) by : Thomas Henry Kearney
Download or read book Agriculture Without Irrigation in the Sahara Desert (Classic Reprint) written by Thomas Henry Kearney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agriculture Without Irrigation in the Sahara Desert In View Of the interest in farming without irrigation that is now being manifested in the arid portion of the United States, an account of a region where agriculture is carried on under extremely adverse natural conditions is particularly timely. The present paper deals with a highly developed system of date-palm culture in the Oued Souf, a remarkable and little-known part Of the Sahara Desert in northern Africa. Strictly speaking, it is not dry - land agriculture with which we have to do in the Souf region, for while the rainfall is practically nothing and irrigation is impracticable, the roots of the trees quickly find their way to ground Water. However, it is quite possible that similar conditions may be found to exist in this country in some parts of the desert region Of the Southwest, and that the Souf system, with or without irrigation, can be utilized there on a small scale in growing certain orchard crops with a View to forcing fruit to early maturity, so that it can be put upon the market much in ad vance Of the bulk Of the crop. The Oued Souf was Visited by Mr. Kearney at the end Of Novem ber, 1904, the journey having been made from Nefta, in southwestern Tunis, Where he had Spent Several weeks in a study Of the date palm. This expedition to northern Africa was made under the auspices Of the Office of Seed and Plant Introduction and Distribution of the Bureau of Plant Industry.

Book Synopsis A Desert Feast by : Carolyn Niethammer
Download or read book A Desert Feast written by Carolyn Niethammer and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2020-09-22 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on thousands of years of foodways, Tucson cuisine blends the influences of Indigenous, Mexican, mission-era Mediterranean, and ranch-style cowboy food traditions. This book offers a food pilgrimage, where stories and recipes demonstrate why the desert city of Tucson became American’s first UNESCO City of Gastronomy. Both family supper tables and the city’s trendiest restaurants feature native desert plants and innovative dishes incorporating ancient agricultural staples. Award-winning writer Carolyn Niethammer deliciously shows how the Sonoran Desert’s first farmers grew tasty crops that continue to influence Tucson menus and how the arrival of Roman Catholic missionaries, Spanish soldiers, and Chinese farmers influenced what Tucsonans ate. White Sonora wheat, tepary beans, and criollo cattle steaks make Tucson’s cuisine unique. In A Desert Feast, you’ll see pictures of kids learning to grow food at school, and you’ll meet the farmers, small-scale food entrepreneurs, and chefs who are dedicated to growing and using heritage foods. It’s fair to say, “Tucson tastes like nowhere else.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.
