 This is a departure from my regular Episodes in that I did not make the video but

I think readers will be impressed.   Congering the prairie was done by three steps.

Two of the steps were quite disturbing to any thoughtful person.  The third step
is the subject of this episode … POWER !

1)
First the land
was cleared of its rightful owners…the indigenous peoples

2) Then The great herds of buffalo Were slaughtered…THEIR bones sacked like chordwood. They had provided food for those indigenous people.
But they also got in the way of railway construction.

3) And only then could The prairie soils be turned over and harrowed….and that
is where this story takes off.
