Cotton, Cattle & Railroads Test Study Guide

As settlers moved West, most Indians were displaced of their ancestral homelands & forced to move onto reservations. Plains Indians were upset about Buffalo Hunters killing & wasting so many buffalo & wanted to kill the hunters. Farmers were fencing off territory throughout the Great Plains. They fought over water rights & cut barbed wire led to many disputes & stronger laws. An African-American soldier that usually served on the frontier during the Indian Wars. A hunter that killed buffalo for the hides in order to sell them.

6. Railroad companies paid buffalo hunters to kill buffalo- almost to extinction. Decreased travel time & an increased amount of goods that were being shipped. It allowed farming to take place on the Great Plains. Now they could irrigate their crops by using an underground water source. Reservation lands now known as Oklahoma Barbed wire = farmers closed off property. Windmills = allowed for farming on Great Plains. Texas fever = affected many cattle Subsistence farming is growing crops to feed your family. Cash crops are grown on a large scale to sell for money.

Rodeos, lassos, ranchos, corals, vaqueros (Pretty much everything to do with ranching) Beef supply was low in Northern states after the Civil War. Due to high prices for beef, ranching became a very profitable industry. Diseases from settlers. Texas Rangers & the Colt pistols. Overhunting the buffalo. Settlers moving onto Indian lands. Extension of Railroads & the use of the refrigerated rail cars (no longer had to be shipped alive). Overgrazing of pasture lands. Cotton, Cattle & Railroads

They settled west taking the Indians lands. African-Americans, Tejanos, & Women Hardworking with very little pay. When cows are running away from where the cowboys want them to go. Very dangerous part about the cattle industry. They felt they were wasting the buffalo & stealing their lands. American bison (Buffalo). Had a purpose for every part. Pro: Lots of land for cattle to graze on. Con: Lots of territory to lose cattle on

23. Respect for nature & fighting and dying with honor. Refrigerated cars meant cattle didn’t have to be shipped alive. Increased amount of beef shipped & decreased the time to ship it. African-American man that had more than a $1 million in assets that he got from the ranching industry. Helped reform big businesses. Crated the Texas Railroad Commission Last Comanche Chief. Son of Cynthia Parker. He led the warriors that attacked Adobe Walls.
