Abstract
Farm life on the Great Plains is different than farming in the Midwest or points east. Western farmers build sod houses, design steel plows uniquely shaped to cut through the sod, and develop barbed wire to keep grazing animals away from crops. Although competition does exist between farmers and cattle ranchers, the conflict is somewhat exaggerated By the end of the 19th century, large-scale commercial activities begin to alter look and feel of traditional agriculture.
