 PREFACE 
 
 The following topical studies and references have 
 been prepared in connection with a course of lectures 
 on the economic history of American agriculture which 
 I have been giving at the Iowa State College of Agri- 
 culture and Mechanic Arts during the past six years. 
 They are now presented in published form with the 
 hope that they may serve to encourage the further 
 establishment of similar courses of instruction in 
 other institutions of learning, and thereby stimulate 
 a more active interest in a most important, though 
 hitherto neglected, phase of our national develop- 
 ment.

 THE ECONOMIC HISTORY OF 
 
 AMERICAN AGRICULTURE 
 
 AS A FIELD FOR STUDY^ 
 
 The New History. 
 
 History, like all other studies, has repeatedly 
 undergone significant changes in point of view and 
 in methods of interpretation. Formerly, it was re- 
 garded as a narrative of past events, and its chief 
 purpose was to interest and amuse the reader, rather 
 than to contribute to a well considered body of scien- 
 tific knowledge. This conception of history, how- 
 ever, has been greatly changed during the past fifty 
 years by the introduction of the scientific method in 
 historical investigation. The main objective of this 
 method is the critical study of the past life of human- 
 ity, not only for its own sake, but also for the sake 
 of enabling us to understand better the present life 
 of the times of which we ourselves are a part. It has 
 led students to search beneath the surface of passing 
 events and to study the institutional life of society ; 
 in other words, the common every-day life of human- 
 ity. It has brought about a reconstruction of the 
 whole field of history with the result that all phases 
 of human progress are being studied and presented 
 in a new light. It conceives of history as a social 
 science whose concern is the scientific study of the 
 past life of human society in its economic, social, re- 
 ligious, political, military, aesthetic, and intellectual 
 phases.

 Importance of Economic Forces in the Study of 
 American History. 
 
 The application of the scientific method of the 
 study of American history has brought out more 
 clearly the significance of the economic forces under- 
 lying our national development. It has been only a 
 few years since the histories of the United States 
 treated merely the political, military, and religious 
 phases of American life, while the economic and social 
 were neglected, if not altogether ignored; and this in 
 spite of the fact that the latter have been constantly 
 gaining in importance with our material progress and 
 have formed, further, the real essence of our most 
 crucial political questions. We need only refer to the 
 slavery question with its many complications, or con- 
 sider the debates on the public lands, internal im- 
 provements, the United States bank, the tariff, the 
 currency, immigration, the organization of labor, and 
 the regulation of corporations, to show what an im- 
 portant part economic questions have played in 
 American politics. 
 
 The Need for the Study of American Economic 
 History. 
 
 To-day, economic and social problems are pressing 
 for solution ; and questions of government are becom- 
 ing, to an ever-increasing extent, economic rather than 
 political. The scientific spirit is making new demands 
 upon the past. It wants to know a thousand things 
 concerning which analysts in former times were not 
 curious. \Vhereas historians have hitherto interro- 
 gated the past concerning the doings of generals, 
 politicians, and churchmen, they are now coming to 
 search for information concerning such matters as the 
 tenure of public and private land, the migrations of 
 settlers and of crop areas, the rise of trades unions 
 and farmers' organizations, the growth of corpora- 
 tions, the status of the negro, and the advance of edu- 
 cation. The rising school of economic historians is 
 
 6
 
 responding to the demands of a new age and the his- 
 tory of our countr}' is being reexplored and rewritten 
 in order that we may better understand the present 
 with its complex economic and social problems : in 
 other words, that we may better interpret our own 
 times in the light of economic and social evolution. 
 
 Fundamental Significance of the History of 
 American Agriculture. 
 
 Of fundamental significance in the scientific study 
 of American develoi)ment is the economic history of 
 our agriculture. This phase of our history has not 
 liitherto received the attention at the hand of histor- 
 ians which its importance merits. It is time, there- 
 fore, first, to define the economic history of American 
 agriculture as a field of study ; second, to review some 
 of the reasons why special attention should be di- 
 rected to this field ; and, third, to suggest some of the 
 more important problems which this field offers for 
 investigation. 
 
 The economic history of American agriculture in- 
 cludes much more tlian a mere account of progress in 
 the technique of agriculture. It is concerned with all 
 the facts, forces, and conditions which have entered 
 into the development of agriculture in the United 
 States, from the founding of Jamestown to the Pan- 
 American exposition. It deals with the influences 
 affecting the evolution of agriculture and of agricul- 
 tural societies in different sections; the problems en- 
 gaging the attention of the rural population in vari- 
 ous periods ; the relation of agriculture to other in- 
 dustries ; the contributions of the agricultural 
 population to the professions, to politics, and to leg- 
 islation; and the influences of our agricultural devel- 
 opment on our national life. It includes the study of 
 the whole life of the rural population, economic, social, 
 moral, religious, intellectual, and political. Viewed 
 in one way the history of the United States from the 
 beginning has been in a very large measure the story 
 of rural communities advancing westward by the con- 
 
 7
 
 quest of the soil^ developing from a state of primitive 
 self-sufficiency to a capitalistic and highly complex 
 agricultural organization. 
 
 Reasons for the Study of the Econoaiic History 
 OF American Agriculture. 
 
 These preliminary considerations show the broad 
 scope of the economic history of American agricul- 
 ture as a field for study. What, then, are some of 
 the more important reasons for directing attention to 
 this field.? 
 
 1. Agriculture is the fundamental basis of our pros- 
 perity. The greater portion of our population has 
 always dwelt in rural communities. According to the 
 census, the rural population in 1790 represented 
 ninety-six and seven-tenths per cent, of the total ; in 
 1880, seventy and five-tenths per cent.; and in 1910, 
 fifty-three and seven-tenths per cent. ; thus it still 
 constitutes more than half of the whole population. 
 Jn 1910, thirty- four and six-tenths per cent, of the 
 population was engaged directly in the cultivation of 
 the soil, a greater proportion than is engaged in any 
 other occujoation. The value of farm property as 
 compared with that of manufacturing, transportation, 
 forestry, and mining industries also emphasizes the 
 great prominence of agriculture; and finally, the 
 study of cycles in business prosperity indicates that 
 our general well-being has always been dependent on 
 this industry. 
 
 2. The economic history of American agriculture is 
 indispensahle to a correct understanding of much of 
 our political and diplomatic history. A considera- 
 tion of the effect of cotton and slavery on the whole 
 history of party politics from the adoption of the con- 
 stitution down to the civil war. or of the rapid growth 
 of the wheat industry in its relation to the organiza- 
 tion of a farmers' party and the effect of this party 
 movement on national legislation, as evidenced, for 
 instance, by the interstate commerce act of 1887 and 
 the Sherman anti-trust act of 1890, will give anyone 
 
 S
 
 an ajipreciation of the fact that in order to under- 
 stand our political history, no little attention must be 
 given to the economic history of agriculture. A con- 
 sideration of the influence of the agricultural indus- 
 try on our foreign relations and the making of com- 
 mercial and other treaties will further emphasize this 
 same fact. It was the demand of the southwestern 
 farmers for the free and unrestricted navigation of 
 the Mississippi which led directly to the purchase 
 of Louisiana from Napoleon. It was the interfer- 
 ence with American shipping and the seizure of 
 American food j^roducts which led to the war of 1812. 
 It has been generally conceded that England's need 
 of cotton was chiefly responsible for that country's 
 sympathetic attitude toward the South during the 
 civil war; it is equally significant that her imperative 
 need of northern wheat operated effectively to keep 
 England officially neutral. These illustrations are 
 sufficient to suggest the importance of our agrarian 
 history in the study of American diplomacy ; our na- 
 tion's historians have been too much inclined to take 
 a provincial view of the national past — the " short- 
 view," as the late Rear-Admiral Mahan has expressed 
 it. It is time to abandon this attitude, and to take 
 the larger or the " long-view " of the forces which 
 have shaped our destinies. 
 
 3. Our agricultural history offers an excellent op- 
 portunitij for the study of the lives and services of 
 eminent men xvho have profoundly affected American 
 economic development. Consider tlie influence of Eli 
 Whitney on the history of the cotton industry, or that 
 of Cyrus Hall ]\IcCormick on the history of the cereal 
 production. It is not too much to say that the tri- 
 umph of the north over the south in 1865 was the 
 triumph of the reaper over the cotton gin, and that 
 McCormick and Whitney deserve as great a place in 
 American history as U. S. Grant and Robert E. Lee. 
 Or consider the influence of Franklin. Washington. 
 and Jefferson on the early formation of agricultural 
 societies ; of Thomas H. Benton and Galusha A. Grow 
 
 9
 
 on the movement of free homesteads for actual set- 
 tlers; of Senator Morrill on the establishment of col- 
 leges of agriculture and mechanic arts ; of O. H. 
 Kelly on the granger movement; of General James B. 
 Weaver on the organization of a farmers' party ; and 
 of P. G. Holden, " the corn wizard," on the develop- 
 ment of rural extension work and the popularization 
 of better farming methods. These names will sug- 
 gest at once a host of other Americans who have con- 
 tributed to the development of the farming industry ; 
 our agrarian history is rich in the personal element. 
 
 4. It further furnishes a background for the study 
 of agricultural economics. It is recognized that eco- 
 nomic science bears about the same relation to eco- 
 nomic history that political science bears to political 
 history. The value of political history to the politi- 
 cal scientist is so obvious as to require no defense. 
 It is equally evident that agricultural economics, a 
 science which is of recent origin, must have a his- 
 torical foundation and background. The agricultural 
 economist needs to be familiar with the economic life 
 of man in the past in order to realize and appreciate 
 the organic nature of society. He should be his- 
 torically minded if he would deal most efficiently with 
 the problems of the present. With the introduction 
 of the science of agricultviral economics into the land 
 grant colleges and universities of the country, there- 
 fore, comes a new motive for productive work in the 
 field of agricultural history. 
 
 5. The history of American agriculture, then, is 
 essential to the development of a sound and far- 
 sighted riiral economy. The great problems of rural 
 communities are human rather than merely material- 
 istic. That is to say, they are economic, social, and 
 educational, and cannot be understood except in the 
 light of their historical evolution. Government action 
 involving: agricultural interests should be based on a 
 broad knowledge of rural economic history. Ques- 
 tions of land tenure, tenancy, size of farms, markets 
 (including the complex problems of distribution and 
 
 10
 
 exchange)^ capitalistic agriculture, the rise of land 
 values, rural credits, farmers' organizations with their 
 economic, social, intellectual, and political functions, 
 the rural school, the rural church, and good roads : 
 these are only a few of the vital problems which 
 should be considered from a historical and compara- 
 tive as well as from a purely technical point of view. 
 Rural problems will henceforth demand a superior 
 type of statesmanship, for we are to-day rapidly 
 passing through a great transition period of our his- 
 tory. We have emerged from the period of coloni- 
 zation, of exploitation, of extensive development, and 
 have entered the period of intensive development. 
 There is a greater need than ever for calling upon 
 the wisdom and experience of the past in the work- 
 ing out of a sound and farsighted ruxal economy. We 
 are in need of a scientific treatment of the economic 
 history of agriculture in this country to help supply 
 this need. 
 
 Indications of an Awakening Interest in Our 
 Agrarian History. 
 
 The subject, thus outlined, presents an inviting 
 field for study and investigation. Although it has 
 been neglected, not to say almost entirely ignored, by 
 our nation's historians, it is encouraging to note an 
 awakening interest in this direction. Some of the 
 leading institutions of the country, particularly 
 Harvard, Wisconsin, and Columbia, are directing re- 
 search work in this field, and a few of these institu- 
 tions have begun to offer courses on the subject. At 
 the Iowa State College, for example, such a course is 
 offered, and it is required in the various departments 
 of the division of agriculture, in addition to the course 
 in agricultural economics. ^Mention should also be 
 made of the work now being undertaken by the de- 
 partment of economics and sociology in tlie Carnegie 
 institution at Washington, under whose auspices a 
 rumber of published and unpublished monograplis in 
 the economic history of American agriculture have 
 
 11
 
 already been prepared. Under its direction, the 
 materials are being collected for a comprehensive his- 
 tory of American agriculture which will serve as an 
 encyclopedia on the subject. These contributions, 
 however, represent merely the pioneer undertakings, 
 which will need to be supplemented by niuuerous 
 studies if the economic history of American agricul- 
 ture is to be properly emphasized and recorded. The 
 limits of this paper will permit only a brief consid- 
 eration of some of the more important problems which 
 await the labors of the historian. 
 
 Some Problems which the Ecoxomic History of 
 
 American Agriculture Offers for 
 
 Investigation. 
 
 1. Among these subjects, that of the public lands 
 commands primary consideration. The entire land 
 area of continental United States amounts to 1,903,- 
 289,600 acres. Of this area forty-six and two-tenths 
 per cent., or 878,798,325 acres, have been carved out 
 into farms. The remainder consists of forests and 
 mineral holdings and reserves, land occupied by 
 towns and cities, railroads' rights of way, public high- 
 ways, mountainous country, and arid and swamp 
 lands. There remain unreserved and unappropriated 
 only 290,000,000 acres, the great portion of which 
 will never be available for agricultural purposes. 
 
 The transference of the originally vast heritage 
 from public to private ownership is of fundamental 
 significance ; its history should include a considera- 
 tion of early French, Spanish, and English land 
 grants to individuals and to colonial corporations, of 
 colonial systems of land disposal, and of the various 
 methods by which the national and state governments 
 have disposed of public lands to the settler, to the 
 " land grabber ", and to the speculator. A review of 
 the federal land policy presents the story of a long 
 and bitter contest between the east and west, cul- 
 minating in the triumph of the latter in the enactment 
 of the preemption law of 1841, and the homestead 
 
 12
 
 act of 1862. This struggle was involved with other 
 public questions : the protective tariff, New England's 
 primary concern; and slavery, the major interest of 
 the South. The ascendency of the slavery issue after 
 the Mexican war brought the east to the support of 
 the west in opposition to slavery extension, and in 
 the demand for free homesteads which was inserted 
 in the republican platform of 1860. Representative 
 Lovejoy, of Illinois, is authority for the statement 
 that without this plank Lincoln could not have been 
 elected. With the secession of the southern states, 
 the enactment of the homestead law was assured. 
 But Congress and the land office, in devising the lib- 
 eral land policy, did not guard the right of the actual 
 settler against land pirates. Ruthless spoliation was 
 practiced until all the best land M'as gone. Recent 
 tendencies in land legislation indicate an intention 
 on the part of the government to revert to the original 
 purpose of the law of 1862, and to assign free home- 
 steads only to actual settlers. 
 
 The rapid disposal of the swamp land grants, the 
 internal imj^rovement and railway grants, the section 
 grants for common schools, and the land grants for 
 colleges of agriculture and mechanic arts under the 
 Morrill act of 1862, as well as the location and final 
 disposition of these lands, suggest important studies 
 to be made in public land history. The history of 
 the forest lands (including forest reserves and na- 
 tional parks), and of the mineral and the saline lands 
 also is waiting to be written. Finally, the disposi- 
 tion of lands under the timber culture act, the desert 
 land act, the timber and stone act, the Carc}^ act, the 
 reclamation act, and the Kinkaid act, may be men- 
 tioned as profitable subjects for investigation. 
 
 Fifty years ago there was little or no occasion for 
 careful consideration of the land question. Land was 
 to be had for nothing, and there was plenty of it. 
 Congress was not much concerned as to how rapidly 
 or how unwisely the vast national heritage was spent. 
 The speculative spirit seems to have become in- 
 
 1.3
 
 grained as one of the chief American characteristics; 
 it has contributed to an inflation of land values, and 
 to the present high rate of tenancy. The land ques- 
 tion has therefore entered upon a new and complex 
 phase. In undertaking an equitable solution of this 
 problem, the history of the land under both public 
 and private ownership should be investigated. In 
 essaying this task, it should be kept in mind that the 
 disappearance of the public lands is closely linked 
 with the rapid increase in population, the change 
 from extensive to intensive farming, and the in- 
 creased cost of living. 
 
 2. The history of specific leading industries also 
 remains to he written. As examples of what may be 
 done in this direction we may indicate Hammond's 
 " Cotton Industry " and Thompson's " Rise and De- 
 cline of the Wheat Growing Industry in Wisconsin." 
 Similar studies should be undertaken for cereal and 
 live stock production, the latter including dairy- 
 ing and meat packing. The tobacco, poultry, and 
 beet sugar industries should also be mentioned as 
 profitable fields for research. The history of the 
 range should be a particularly interesting subject for 
 investigation. Such a study should give special at- 
 tention to influences affecting the rise and growth of 
 the industry, such as soil and climate, early trade and 
 commerce, labor, tenancy, the use of improved ma- 
 chinery, markets, prices, transportation, and the 
 tariff; and the relation of the industry to such indus- 
 tries as transportation, manufactures, mining, and 
 lumbering should be considered. The westward 
 movement of the center of production should be 
 studied in its relation to the westward movement of 
 population and the accessibility of markets. The in- 
 fluence of agricultural prices on production, and the 
 influence of grain markets on national politics and 
 finance should receive careful study. Mr. Turner 
 has called attention to the importance of the study of 
 the wheat industry, in the following terms : 
 
 " If, for example, we study the maps showing the 
 14
 
 transition of the wheat belt from the East to the 
 West, as the virgin soils were conquered and made 
 new bases for destructive competition with the older 
 wheat states, we shall see how deeply they affected 
 not only land values, railroad building, the movement 
 of population and the supply of clieap food, but also 
 liow the regions once devoted to single cropping of 
 wheat Vv'erc forced to turn to varied and intensive 
 agriculture and to diversified industry, and we shall 
 see also how these transformations affected party 
 politics and even the ideals of the Americans of the 
 regions thus changed." ^ 
 
 3. The economic history of agriculture in particu- 
 lar states or in given regions should also be written. 
 Such studies should include the consideration of agri- 
 cultural geography, Indian agricultiire. early trade 
 and travel, relations of the white race to the Indian, 
 pioneer population and agriculture, nearness to the 
 markets, transportation of agricultural products, de- 
 velopment of specialized and diversified farming, 
 systems of land tenure, agricultural labor, use of im- 
 proved farm machinery, size of farms, price of lands, 
 and rentals, and laws governing inheritance of real 
 estate in lands. These studies would naturally in- 
 clude also the consideration of the sources of immi- 
 gration, the type of farmers, the methods of agricul- 
 ture, and the social phases of life, including religion, 
 education, amusements, and entertainments. Atten- 
 tion should be given to currency and banking facili- 
 ties, rural credit, rates of interest, and the relation of 
 the farming population to national monetary legisla- 
 tion and to the tariff. The subject of agricultural 
 education should receive extended treatment ; a study 
 of state agricultural societies and fairs, the agricul- 
 tural press, and the agricultural colleges and experi- 
 ment stations, including rural extension departments 
 and recently introduced courses in agriculture in the 
 
 2 F. J. Turner, " Social Forces in American History," in 
 The American Historical Review, Vol. XVI, 1911, pp. 220, 
 230. 
 
 15
 
 high schools. Finally, the economic history of agri- 
 culture of any state should present an historical and 
 comparative analysis of the problems confronting the 
 farming class. INIr. E. V. Robinson's " Economic 
 History of Agriculture in Minnesota," just pub- 
 lished, suggests the possibilities and the value of this 
 type of study. Similar studies might indeed profit- 
 ably be made of larger areas, as, for example, a given 
 region like the middle west. 
 
 i. The history of the farmers' organizations should 
 be given considerable attention in view of the recent 
 active interest xvhich is being awakened in the vari- 
 ous forms of farmers' cooperative unions < id enter- 
 prises. Studies of this kind may be dividi ' into two 
 groups: First, those dealing with organiza. is Avhich 
 seek to combine the farmers as a class, as illustrated 
 by the grange ; and, secondly, those treating of or- 
 ganizations which serve some special end or indus- 
 try, as, for example, the cooperative creameries, and 
 farmers' elevators. For such a study it would be 
 necessary to investigate the origin, purpose, growth, 
 difficulties, successes, and failures of the various or- 
 ganizations. European ideals and methods intro- 
 duced by the immigrant farmer should be studied. 
 The influence of the organization on state and na- 
 tional politics and legislation should be given due 
 weight. The recent appearance of Mr. S. J. Buck's 
 monograph on " The Granger Movement " marks a 
 distinctive contribution to the history of farmers' 
 organizations. Studies of this kind will contribute 
 very materially to a proper understanding of the 
 farmers' cooperative movement in this country, and 
 will point the way to more successful and fruitful 
 efforts along that line in the future. 
 
 5. Other problems awaiting the labors of the his- 
 torian are readily suggested. INIention may be made 
 of the history of farm machinery, foreign immigration 
 and its influence on the development of agriculture, 
 agricultural labor, transportation of agricultural 
 products, markets and prices, the relation of agricul- 
 
 16
 
 ture to financial legislation, taxation and the tariff, 
 and agricultural education. The relation of agricul- 
 ture to other industries, the relation of the state to 
 agriculture, and the work of the Department of 
 Agriculture may also be suggested. 
 
 The Economic History of American Agriculture 
 
 A Constituent Part of the History of 
 
 Our Nation. 
 
 After all is said, however, the fundamental reason 
 why the economic history of American agriculture 
 should be studied is that we may ultimately have a 
 well-balii <ced history of our nation. For it must be 
 remembe d, as I have already tried to show, that our 
 ugrariar .Astory is to be viewed not in the strict or 
 narrow ^ense, but in the broad sense so as to include 
 the whole life of the rural population, the influences 
 which have affected its progress, and the influence its 
 progress has in turn had on the course of events. 
 Tiius defined, the economic history of American agri- 
 culture is a constituent part of the history of the en- 
 tire people, closely interwoven with other phases of 
 our national progress; and to define it is to emphasize 
 a new point of view in the study of American develop- 
 ment. " The marking out of such a field is only a 
 fresh example of the division of scientific labor; it is 
 the provisional isolation, for the better investigation 
 of them, of a particular group of facts and forces," 
 in order that a true history of our national progress 
 and development may finally be written.
