Excerpt from Transactions of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society It was their wonder and their safety; it was God's gift and mercy that by it, upon these rugged shores, they might live, and that the wandering witness of his word should be preserved and established, a proof of his lasting love and watchful power. This bantling of the Indian squaw is now the king of all the cereals; whose field is a continent, and whose surplus loads the boards of nations that would otherwise perish. This very season the American farmers have raised in ninety days eighteen hundred millions of bushels upon lands that stretch from the sandy shores of Plymouth to the gate of the Pacific, and from where the cool streams leap to the untempered waters of the North Atlantic to the turbid tide of mighty rivers dark rolling to the Southern Gulf.
