The first Europeans to make their way through the Wawanesa area were fur traders. The fur traders were few in number and were not permanent settlers by any means. The first real settlers came from Great Britain in search of new lands and new opportunities. A pioneer farmer guiding his horse-drawn metal plow A wagon being loaded from a barn An old ice house at Raymer Brown's farm Another essential piece of equipment was the wagon. Wagons were used to transport grain, and haul manure and wood. In the winter the wagon box was placed on skis and used to haul ice from the river. The ice was placed inside an ice house, insulated with sawdust and used to refrigerate meat and milk products during the summer. Grain farming was by no means the only form of agriculture practiced by early prairie families. Each farm kept cows, chickens, and pigs, and had a large garden. The animals provided meat, milk, and butter for the family while the garden produced a good supply of vegetables. Excess butter and eggs could be traded for the few items the farm could not produce. Farmers would try to make the animals and the garden provide for their household needs while the crops would be used to pay for the land. The History The Gallery People Mutual Insurance ... Home

Thus this post is somewhat a rambling account about sugar. In 1637, Pieter Brouwer introduced Brazilian sugar cane to Barbados and from there it made its way down to Suriname. Sugar was very important as it was often used as currency. For instance, in 1690 one lb of sugar was equal to 2 nickels (stuivers). Letterwood (wood used in printing) was also a currency and 1 lb of sugar= 3 lbs of letterwood. In 1692 one paid with sugar to get married. The reformed church journal of 1720-1740 has entries that show that 1000 lbs of sugar equals f50 a fee necessary to marry outside the church. In 1694 one paid 20,000 lbs of sugar to be buried inside the church. 10,000 lbs was paid to be buried in the church cemetery. If the plantation owner was buried on the plantation 400 lbs of sugar was paid to the church. Children paid 200 lbs when buried on the plantation. Other people paid according to a downward sliding scale. One also paid 150 lbs of sugar to reserve a seat in church. One paid with sugar for legal document such as wills (100 lbs), a copy of a will (50 lbs), a contractual document (100 lbs).

Topics in Kansas History: Agriculture Crops The 75 years comprising the last half of the 19th and early 20th centuries are often referred to as the age of the industrial revolution. It is no exaggeration to say that this era also witnessed an agricultural revolution. Although the changes normally associated with this revolution affected how farmers cared for their crops, technology also affected what they planted. New and better varieties of wheat, corn, and other crops helped farmers adapt to different regions and to achieve greater yields. Kansas of course is known for its wheat production, but there were and are numerous other crops of significance. Corn, hay, oats, and many more have their own important niche in the state's agricultural history. Find resources on crops.

Kansas' Agricultural History People have been farming in Kansas for thousands of years. Farming has changed quited a bit over time, but one thing remains constant. The identity of Kansas, who we are, continues to be tied to agriculture. Kansas is known by the nicknames "Wheat State" and Breadbasket of the World." Today the products of Kansas farmers and ranchers feed people around the world. This issue will examine how this came to be. For Parents and Teachers: To write the history of agriculture in Kansas is to write much of our state's history. Farming has shaped, and in many ways driven, our state's economy, politics, laws, innovations, culture, social customs, and traditions. Farmers have always been, and still are, important to Kansas. This issue offers a quick glimpse of what it was like to be a farmer when our state was young, and how farming in Kansas has changed over the centuries. Centuries of Farmers in Kansas The first people to live in "Kansas" were Native Americans. They gathered wild plants for food. Eventually they began to save the very best seeds and experiment. They planted the seed in the soil near their homes. This began the tradition of farming. these first farmers were women.
