Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Toiling and Tilling the Soil The time of plowing is short and requires quick work. Horses cannot be worked more than ten hours per day. They must be rested and fed, while the engine with a headlight can be operated twenty four hours per day. These advantages, together with the fact that the thermal efficiency of the Dig/.55 almost equals that of nature's great prime mover, the horse, enable us to compete with the animal and to do its work for from one-half to one-third the former cost. James Watt perfected his steam engine in 1765. We must think back but 140 odd years to realize what a revolution he brought about - there is the railroad forming a regular network over the face of the country, connecting cities, states and nations, facilitating transportation of products from city to city, state to state and nation to nation. There is the modern city with its factories that furnish employment and living for millions of workers. The steam engine has changed our lives from their very foundations up and in those countries where it is used it has increased the population itself five and six fold. Before Stephenson, transportation was carried on by the use of horses on country roads. He harnessed steam and made it dothat work, and a network of railroads has grown that today it nearly encircles the earth. Robert Fulton made the steam engine available for water transportation. Today we pass from New York to Europe in five days, and the nations have been linked together and unified in thought by steam - driven water commerce. Oil is the most abundant and easily portable of all liquid fuels. Man's greatest power is that of turning the face of the whole earth once each year by the plow. The building of an oil burning engine to do the work of plowing in this, the rooth year after the first steamboat, is a feat that will mean as much, possibly more than the inventions of Stephenson and Fulton.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stewardship of the Soil Our ambitious young commonwealth, in con junction with other states comprising the great Northwest, occupies a commanding position in the industrial and economic affairs of. This nation. Mines of gold and silver or forests primeval North Dakota does not have; but from the millions of fertile acres comprising our vast agricultural empire, we may reap a golden harvest every year that will exceed in wealth the output of all the golden placers in the western mountains. The harvest of minerals, however, can be gath ered but once. Time will not restore the precious nuggets. The forests once harvested can, at great ex pense, be renewed in the course of a century; but our harvest of domestic plants and animals recurs with every passing season to recompense the farmer for his toil and to enrich the farmer's friends. What a precious theme is harvest! The hopes, the well-being, the life of the world is fast bound up inthe magic of this single word.

Book Synopsis Soils, How to Handle and Improve Them (Classic Reprint) by : S. W. Fletcher
Download or read book Soils, How to Handle and Improve Them (Classic Reprint) written by S. W. Fletcher and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Soils, How to Handle and Improve Them Many of the early books on farming were written in a technical style. They smacked of the lecture room and the library rather than of the soil. They were scholarly rather than practical. A spirit of directness and simplicity is beginning to dominate agricultural literature. The modern type of farm books is born of actual contact with the soil and a desire to be of service to the men who are getting a living from the soil. They are democratic; they discuss common things in a plain way. The long and tedious tables of figures in the old books are giving place to crisp summaries. The technical lecture-room phrases are replaced by words in common use on farms. The idea is not to present less science - for nothing is so practical as sound science - but to present science in a simple and practical way. This new spirit is contemporaneous with the farmers' institute, the farmer's reading-course, Nature-study, elementary agriculture in the public schools and other efforts to serve the man who tills the soil. It is an expression of a general movement which aims to democracise agricultural teaching. This book is an attempt to set forth the important facts about the soil in a plain and untechnical manner. It is not a contribution to agricultural science, but an interpretation of it - a new presentation of what is already known.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Soil Management In 1895 the preface was written for the Rural Science Series. It set forth the purpose of the Series to be the desire to place in readable form the best results of scientific thought and discovery relating to agriculture and country life, in order that the general public might be made aware of the progress, and that farmers might be led more effectively to apply the information in their daily work. It was the hope that the Series, under the present writer's direction or another's, might gradually extend itself to the whole range of agricultural scientific literature. The books now included in The Rural Science Series are about two dozen, making nearly two volumes, on the average, for each year. The number of writers on agricultural topics is increasing, the knowledge on all subjects is rapidly accumulating, and the reading-public is gradually enlarging; there is every reason to expect, therefore, that the Series will extend itself still more rapidly in the years to come. It was considered to be an auspicious circumstance that the Rural Science Series began with a book on the soil, for this grounded the enterprise.

Download or read book Lessons on Soil (Classic Reprint) written by Edward J. Russell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons on Soil The book is intended to help children to study nature; there is no attempt to substitute book study for nature study. Hence, whilst there are passages of continuous reading, it is not a mere reader. Many teachers, myself among them, have felt the difficulty of organising practical work for large classes. Dr Russell has written so that, whilst nominally showing the pupil how to learn, he is secretly scattering hints for the teacher who is learning how to teach. Abundant and varied practical exercises have been suggested, and careful instructions have been given so that the book shall seem intelligible even in the absence of a teacher. The proposed practical work is not only what might be done by eager boys and girls on half-holidays, but what can be done by every scholar in the course of ordinary school work. The pictorial illustrations are intended as aids to observation, not as substitutes. Drawing is one form of practical exercise, and the preparation of corresponding illustrations in the scholars' notebooks from the apparatus used in the classroom and the fields around the school may afi'ord exercises in artistic work with pen, brush or camera. Sufficient directions are given for the supply of necessary materials and apparatus. The apparatus pro posed is of the simplest character. It is suggested that the book will be found most useful in the higher standards of elementary schools, in preparatory schools and in the lower forms of secondary schools, that is, where the ages of scholars average from 12 to 14.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Management of the Soil The soil is the source of all agricultural products. To his knowledge of it and its management the farmer must owe much of his success. It is important then, that the principles underlying soil management should be given a definite and thorough study at the beginning of the course in Agriculture. It has been our aim to set forth the essential principles of the management of the soil in such a manner that the student may grasp them at the outset. It is intended that the students shall carefully work out the experiments and problems for themselves, especially those adapted to the region in which the school is located. Such work will mean infinitely more than lectures by the teacher and will be much longer remembered. We know that there are different opinions upon some of these topics, but we have tried to give only those con elusions verified by experience or supported by authorities which are among the best. We are indebted to Dr. John A. Widtsoe, president of the University of Utah, and a widely known authority on agriculture in the irrigated and the dry-farming regions of the West, for the reading of the manuscript, and for helpful suggestions.

This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Soil Protection and Soil Improvement The need of complete information in one handy volume, in other words a ready reference book, covering the various phases pertaining to the Protection and Improvement of our soils, influenced the author in compiling the subject matter herewith set forth. The value of tile underdrainage in the up-building of the farm lands was considered of such vital importance that it is treated at length, showing the treatment and the results obtained in different types of soils. Then, too, since the farmer is deeply interested in all matters relating to the growing and handling of their crops, he should be great ly concerned in the proper expenditure of the public moneys for road building and in the securing for himself and his neigh bors the best possible returns for such expenditure. The proper drainage of our highways has received less attention than the drainage of the farm. The lack of it, has resulted in the destruction of all kinds of roads and an inexcusable waste of money. In fact injury resulting from lack of drain age is greater than injury from trafiic.. The demand for better roads invites a study and knowledge as to how the money expended may not be lost. No class of taxpayers is more concerned than the farmer in the building of our roads so they will last. Hence, a portion of this book is given over to the subject of the Improvement of Our Rural Highways and an urgent appeal for earnest cooperation on the part of the farmer, for only through same can our people correct the present evil and make possible better conditions of traffic and the handling of the crops.
