Timeframe: 1859- 1885. Key Topics: Population Growth in KS. Cattle Industry in Kansas. The railroad in KS. Development of railroad towns in KS. Changes in farming practices.
24
Essential Questions. 1. Why did Cattle drives come to Kansas? 2. What effects did cattle drives have on people in Kansas? 3. Why did the Cattle Drives end? 4. How did the Government encourage the growth of the Railroads? (subsidy, monopoly, Cyrus K. Holliday.) 5. What was the impact of having a town near a railroad. (Fred Harvey, depots).
25
What was life like for most farmers in Kansas? How did new technology affect farm production in KS?
26
Between 1859 and 1885 the state was growing in population. Population grew because there were jobs to be had. Factors that brought people here were railroads, cattle drives, and land available to farm.
27
Texas had a surplus of Cattle. There was a demand for cattle in the East. It made sense to drive cattle herds to Kansas, put them on trains to get them back east. The drives spanned 750 miles for 30-40 days.
28
Teams of Young men called cowboys brought the cattle. When they arrived in KS, they were paid for their services They then could spend the money in the towns. Locals did not like the herds, they brought disease and destroyed crops and land. Diseases led to the banning of Texas cattle. Eventually railroads came to Texas.
29
The Federal government wanted a transcontinental railroad to connect the country. To encourage this, they gave land grants to RR companies to build on. Companies could sell the extra land given. Railroad companies had monopolies on land and could charge what they wanted for land and shipping costs.
30
Planning of new towns was important. If a town was not close to a railroad it would not survive. Businesses were located right near tracks. Local farmers would bring crops to towns for sale and shipment.
31
Farmers relied on towns to sell goods and buy equipment that they couldn’t make or repair. Most farmers grew enough food to sell extra for profit. Early in the State’s history corn was an important crop because it could be eaten as is or ground into meal. Wheat became popular when railroads came because it could be shipped off to mills.
32
More mechanical equipment allowed farmers to work more land. With horses it took roughly a day to work an acre of ground. As more machinery became available it took less manpower to plant and harvest. More food was produced this way and more was available for sell.
