Chapter 6: Life in the Cotton Kingdom 6?9 Farm Journal Reports on the Care and Feeding of Slaves, 1836 Slaves were seen as valuable property and their care and maintenance was of no less importance to slave owners than the management of their livestock or crops. Unfortunately, the slaves were frequently seen as having little more value than livestock, and were certainly treated as property, to be managed for best profitability. Articles in farm journals on how best to manage and exploit slaves were numerous, even in such relatively prestigious tomes as The Farmer?s Register. Particularly noteworthy articles on slave management were reproduced in several different issues, such as this letter to The Southern Agri- culturist which was reprinted in The Farmer?s Register.

Financial Corruption: Monopolies in Early American Industries As America?s Industrial Revolution ?slipped into high gear?, the predominantly agricultural and handiwork based economy turned to one dominated by industry and machine work. For the first time in American history, a class of millionaires emerged. Leading the way for this new class of millionaires were two men, John D. Rockefeller, and Andrew Carnegie. These men were not just business tycoons. They helped to create new ways in which American?s conduct business, both then, and now. These innovative practices, which Rockefeller and Carnegie based their respective industry?s on, became known as vertical and horizontal integration.
