Essential Question The Week of 6-10 Mar 17
"I will never put my name on a product that does not have in it the best that is in me." John Deere MONDAY How did improvements in agriculture help farmers? The steel-tipped plow made cutting through soil easier. The mechanical reaper sped up harvesting wheat. More wheat was planted because it could be harvested faster, making it more profitable. The threshers sped up the harvesting process. Railroads also helped farmers by moving their goods faster, farther, and cheaper. TUESDAY How did improvements in agriculture help farmers?

What is the author trying to say? Political cartoon from the 1860s, captioned, "The great fear of the period—that Uncle Sam may be swallowed by foreigners: The problem solved." The illustration, which depicts Uncle Sam, an Irish man, a Chinese man, and a railroad, alludes to the influx of immigrants for cheap labor to build the transcontinental railroad and to the prejudices against them in the United States.
