Текст Раскадровки
- Before 1870, the west of America was largely unsettled, and most inhabitants were Native Americans. This was until the Homestead act, which prompted middle and lower class people, such as Victor Smith here, to move to the west for the many acres of free land.
- Victor smith traveled to his new home in the west via the transcontinental railroad, which made it simple to get from one side of America to the other.
- When he arrived he was met with land divided into fenced areas fenced with barbed wires, and open range land, open to the public for their use.
- When he arrived to his land, Victor was shocked at the poor conditions of the western life. He was expected to live in a Sod house, which is a house made from soil.
- Regardless, victor got to work. He made a groundwater well, powered by windmills. He also began to use steel plows for his farm, so he didn't have to do as much labor.
- After being in the west for a while, Victor noticed the effects of western settlement. A large long lasting effect was the Indian wars and the clashes with the western natives, alongside the end of open ranges, and the beginning of thr cowboy era.
