Paperback. Condición: Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. Thirty years after Meriwether Lewis and William Clark passed through the Mandan villages in present-day North Dakota, the Upper Missouri River region was being plied by fur traders. In 1834 Francis A. Chardon, a Philadelphian of French extraction, took charge of Fort Clark, a main post of the American Fur Company on the Upper Missouri.The journal that Chardon began that year offers a rare glimpse of daily life among the Mandan Indians, including the Arikaras, Yanktons, and Gros Ventres. In particular, it is a valuable and graphic record of the smallpox scourge that nearly destroyed the Mandans in 1837. Chardon describes much of historical interest, including such figures as the interpreter Charbonneau, Sacajawea's husband, and the fantastic James Dickson, Liberator of all the Indians. By the time his account ends in 1839, the fur trade is already in decline. Copyright � University of Nebraska Press.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces an innovative method for drying damp or wet seed cotton called the Vertical Drier Process, developed by the United States Department of Agriculture. As wet cotton can be difficult to gin and produces lower quality lint, this invention addresses a significant challenge in the cotton industry. The drier has a vertical tower containing stationary sheet-metal floors, through which seed cotton is blown. The heated air damages the cotton less than traditional methods and can be reused, making the process less wasteful. The book details the construction of the drying tower, providing an approximate bill of materials, with plans and sections for the various forms of installation. It also discusses the different sources of heat that can be used, including hot-air furnaces, direct-fired heaters, engine waste-heat recovery, steam heaters, iron-pipe heaters, and fin-type heaters. The author highlights the importance of heater placement, valves, and piping, providing diagrams for steam supply and drain piping. Overall, this book offers valuable insights into the Vertical Drier Process, providing a comprehensive resource for cotton ginners seeking to improve their operations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
