About this book
A Living from the Land is a book by William B. Duryee. The preface says homesteading days are here again, and that the present movement of people back to the land is of a different type and has different objectives from those which prevailed when a continent was to be conquered and exploited. The text says the cost of living can be reduced by living in the country, and that opportunities for purchasing foods and other products at wholesale prices and storing them against the time of need make further economies possible. The text calls the spread of electric light and power lines through the country a boon that makes possible the use of all kinds of electrical appliances known in the city.
A section headed Vegetable Growing by Rule says the most effective method of presenting the story of recommended vegetables, desirable varieties, seed required, average yields and other pertinent data is in tabular form. Under Success Factors, the text says a definite program of advertising can be developed with many original features that apply directly to the type of business.
