Book Description
Excerpt from Farming on Factory Lines: Continuous Cropping for the Large Farmer Some time, when I have a little leisure, I hope to write a full record of my experiences in devising my system of Continuous Cropping, or Farming on Factory Lines. For the time being it may interest the general reader to learn that my initial inspirations were received from two people, viz., Prince Kropotkin, through reading his famous book, "Fields, Factories, and Workshops," and my father, who was himself a farmer and the descendant of a long line of farmers, and an agricultural economist - without knowing it. My father once said to me, the while indicating with a wave of the hand, the numerous factory chimneys and colliery head gears, which in his time had sprung up round our home farm: - "Laddie, those are the things which you are up against. I have made money farming, but unless you improve on my methods, unless you can successfully compete with the factory and collieries, you won't." His statement set me thinking, and we had many discussions on the matter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Farming on Factory Lines: Continuous Cropping for the Large Farmer On the other hand, to the practical farmer, science, in any shape or form, was a closed book - something to be ridiculed. TO him the exponents of science were book and blackboard farmers, men who, under the most favourable circumstances, could not make a farm pay. I also learned, that, neither the scientist nor the practical man had even touched the fringe Of agricultural economics, or. Attempted to apply business methods to our greatest industry.

Book Description
Farm and Factory illuminates the importance of the Midwest in U.S. labor history. America's heartland - often overlooked in studies focusing on other regions, or particular cities or industries - has a distinctive labor history characterized by the sustained, simultaneous growth of both agriculture and industry. Since the transfer of labor from farm to factory did not occur in the Midwest until after World War II, industrialists recruited workers elsewhere, especially from Europe and the American South. The region's relatively underdeveloped service sector - shaped by the presumption that goods were more desirable than service - ultimately led to agonizing problems of adjustment as agriculture and industry evolved in the late twentieth century.
