Extractions: AGRARIAN DISTRESS AND THE RISE OF POPULISM In spite of their remarkable progress, 19th-century American farmers experienced recurring periods of hardship. Several basic factors were involved soil exhaustion, the vagaries of nature, a decline in self-sufficiency, and the lack of adequate legislative protection and aid. Perhaps most important, however, was over-production. Along with the mechanical improvements which greatly increased yield per hectare, the amount of land under cultivation grew rapidly throughout the second half of the century, as the railroads and the gradual displacement of the Plains Indians opened up new areas for western settlement. A similar expansion of agricultural lands in countries such as Canada, Argentina and Australia compounded these problems in the international market, where much of U.S. agricultural production was now sold. The farther west the settlers went, the more dependent they became on the railroads to move their goods to market. At the same time, farmers paid high costs for manufactured goods as a result of the protective tariffs that Congress, backed by Eastern industrial interests, had long supported. Over time, the Midwestern and Western farmer fell ever more deeply in debt to the banks that held their mortgages.

Historical Materials (HIST 300) is a research methods seminar in bibliographic method and documentary editing. It affords exposure to the sources and the craft of historical research. It is required of all History, Art History, and Humanities Track Environmental Studies majors. History Colloquium (HIST 400) is a read-and-discuss seminar organized by theme and topics with rigorous exploration of works and interpretations of history. The seminar seeks to ground students in the craft of history through encounters with modes of research, analysis, and interpretation. History Seminar (HIST 450) is the major's capstone course, a seminar requiring work almost entirely in primary materials toward crafting a major paper-presented orally and in writing-that should address a general theme giving common orientation and integration to the seminar.

Extractions: History The study of history provides a broad education about the society in which we live and its past development. Historians study the way in which human communities and their members have behaved, how they have constituted themselves, how they have conducted and sustained their lives, and how they have thought about their condition and the traditions to which they have given their allegiance. History is not just past politics. It is also concerned with the world of ideas and institutions - sacred and profane, commons as well as rulers, science, technology, social movements and economic forces, cities and frontiers. Since it involves examination of people, the study of history also deepens our appreciation of human capacities and failings. These lessons inform our understanding of the possibilities of how we might sustain ourselves, and are essential to the creation of a more sustainable world. The research and teaching interests of the department's faculty centre on a diverse set of problems and topics, including religion; gender; popular culture; the history of ideas; comparative nationalisms; migration; political culture; the history of science and technology; the family; native history; labour; international relations; resources and business; and urban history. The History department is also about to add a Canada Research Chair in Canadian Environmental History, which will broaden its capacity to address sustainability topics and issues.

Spongberg [ Another important factor that has served to emphasize the floristic relationships between eastern North America and eastern Asia is the fact that this particular disjunction pattern was the first to be recognized by botanists. Moreover, the discovery and significance of this pattern figured in the discussions surrounding Darwin's theory of evolution, and it has been discussed not only by plant geographers but by botanical and scientific historians as well. The purpose of this paper is to trace briefly the historical aspects of the recognition of this distribution pattern and the accumulation of facts pertaining to it, and to summarize the major contributions to the study of this pattern that have been made from the time of Linnaeus to the beginning of the twentieth century. Special mention of the contribution and observations of Thomas Nuttall is in- [1] We thank M. Byrnes for her help in the preparation of the manuscript, O. T.
