Mater Ivan Dashboard Courses 898 Calendar (1867-1930) Inbox You might think that the people who own the big mining companies can't be conservative, but Stephen T. It was both! In 1904, Mather and a friend founded a company to mine and sell borax, a cleaning chemical. The company was so successful that Mather was able to retire early. He directed his attention and energy to conservation. In 1915, he visited Washington, D.C., and expressed his concern about the haphazard management of the various national parks. There were no laws or funding to protect the parks from vandals or poachers. He helped Congress establish the National Park Service (NPS) and was appointed its first director in 1917. Mom's help led to the hiring of professionals to manage the park—the first of the Park Service's 20,000 employees today. He believed that once people visited national parks, they supported them. So he called on rail companies to bring people closer to the parks. He suggested making the National Park highway a resource park. Mather was also responsible for adding hotels, campgrounds and concessions to the parks he visited. National parks are accessible and enjoyable for more people.

What an amazing sight Katharine Lee Bates must have seen from her train in the summer of 1893: Kansas wheat fields as far as the eye could see! The wheat sown last fall turned golden when the seeds ripened in May. By July, it is long, thick and ready to harvest. As the train moved forward, the prairie wind caused acres of “amber” stems to move like waves, reminding Bates of the Atlantic Ocean.

However, when Bates described the “amber waves of grain” in his poem, he had more than wheat in mind. A trip to the American Midwest in 1893 reminded me of how big and rich this country really had become.
The term Midwest was first used in 1894. This was the beginning of the term by which Americans saw their country from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The term is specifically used for 12 states in the middle of the country: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. Most of the land in the Midwest consists of flat plains or small hills. A large part of the flat land was devoted to agriculture and cultivation of various crops.
In the 1860s, farmers planted wheat, corn, soybeans, barley, rye, and oats in the fertile soil available throughout the Midwest. In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln called agriculture “the nation's greatest interest.” That same year, he established the Department of Agriculture and signed the Homestead Act. The law allows promising farmers to own up to 160 hectares of government land if they want to cultivate and improve the land and live on it for five years. An enterprising Kansas farmer plants his wheat next to railroad tracks, a living advertisement for new settlers.
In the 1870s, pioneers and settlers moved west along old Indian trails and new railroads. Between 1870 and 1900, 430 million acres of land were settled in America. This is more than all the lands settled between 1607 and 1870 put together.
