Man with Farm Seeks Woman with Tractor The Best and Worst Personal Ads of All Time

We've all been there, whether searching the personals for a romantic connection or posting an ad in hopes of luring in a new friend. A great source of entertainment, many people skim through the personals section for a quick laugh, never questioning its origin or its interesting history. Personal ads began popping up sporadically in the eighteenth century and became common by the end of the nineteenth. Whole publications devoted to romantic and marriage-minded classifieds flourished around the turn of the last century. In the last half of the twentieth century, personal ads exploded in myriad publications from coy gay ads of the 1950s to colorful ads in the alternative presses of the 1970s. Today, more and more people are paying for a chance at love. From the best and the worst, the hopeful and the hopeless, the bitter and the sweet, the romantic and the lustful—never before has a collection like this been assembled from so many decades past. By including hundreds of funny and surprising personal ads from historical newspapers as well as modern Web sites, <i>Man with Farm</i> will entertain and inform.

The Future of Food in America (Reforming Food & Family Audio Collection)

Product description With a rising population, should Americans expect to face food shortages? Why can't we buy raw milk, sausage, and eggs? What should our response be to excessive government control of the food supply? And what is the biblical perspective on the humane treatment of animals and sound agricultural practices as it relates to putting food on the table in America? In The Future of Food in America, world-renowned agricultural expert Joel Salatin and farmer Noah Sanders dispel numerous misconceptions surrounding food and offer hopeful and practical solutions to a host of real food challenges that lie ahead for our nation. Offering a Christian response to statist, environmentalist, and evolutionist pessimism, they outline innovative long-term strategies for bolstering America's food supply. 6 audio cds include: Food Emancipation: A Response to the Industrial Food Fraternity and Answer to the Question, ''Why Can t You Buy Raw Milk, Sausage, and Eggs?'' by Joel Salatin Local Food to the Rescue: The Why and How of Local Food As Part of the Answer to Biosecurity, Energy, Integrity, and Humane Husbandry by Joel Salatin Can We Feed the World?

The International Harvester Company A History of the Founding Families and Their Machines

<p> Ancient farmers used draft animals for plowing but the heavy work of harvesting fell to the humans, using sickle and scythe. Change came in the mid-19th century when Cyrus Hall McCormick built the mechanical harvester. Though the McCormicks used their wealth to establish art collections and universities, battle disease, and develop birth control, members of the family faced constant scrutiny and scandal. This book recounts their story as well as the history of the International Harvester Company (IHC)--a merger of the McCormick and Deering companies and the world's leader in agricultural machinery in the 1900s.</p>

Wisdom of Dirt A Farmer's View of How Life Is from a Tractor Seat

<p>The American farmer is largely misunderstood as a career choice of hard work but lack the ability to contribute to the true meaning of life in everyday living. This book was written to help the nonfarmers (98 percent of the population) understand why and how farmers think and feel about living in a less complicated but "common sense" way of life. It is written from a singular point of view (mine) but with the knowledge that I have grown up and managed a fourth-generation farm that has lived through the Great Depression, World War II, and runaway inflation of the 1980s and the major economic corrections in the early 2000s. This book was written mostly for future generations in my own family, but the life lessons learned from a seventy-year-old farmer apply to anyone who wants to live a "common sense" life. Enjoy the Wisdom of Dirt.</p>
