Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes a survey of 861 white farm families in Kentucky, Tennessee, and Texas in the 1920s to determine how the ability of rural families to pay for goods and services affected their standard of living. The author defines the standard of living in terms of the goods and services consumed annually, focusing on material needs such as food, housing, and clothing, as well as expenditures for health, education, recreation, and social relationships. The study revealed that as income increased, families spent a larger proportion of their income on non-material goods and services, suggesting that the desire for a higher standard of living can drive economic growth. The author also found that the relationship between income and standard of living was influenced by other factors, such as family size, age of family members, and access to education. This book offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between economic resources and the well-being of families, with implications for understanding the role of income inequality in shaping living standards today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the standard of living for American farmers and their families, as defined by economic goods available to them, from 1922-1924. The data gathered by the author explores the socioeconomic conditions of white farm families in eleven states, and was collected through interviews with homemakers, often with assistance from other family members. The study provides valuable insights into the resources available to farm families during this period and the varying quality of life depending on factors such as tenure, location, household composition, and access to amenities. It also compares the standard of living for farm families to that of town and industrial workers, providing a valuable historical context for understanding the unique challenges and rewards of farming life.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a collaborative effort from multiple authors, studies the experiences of rural families on government assistance programs during the Great Depression. It examines the effectiveness of these programs in helping these families return to self-sufficiency. Further, it looks at the problems that led these agricultural families to require assistance in the first place, which included drought, mechanization, and economic depression. The book provides a detailed overview of the challenges faced by these families and evaluates how government programs provided relief. It delves into the characteristics of the families who received aid, their economic status, living situations, and family dynamics. The in-depth research provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of rural rehabilitation efforts during the Great Depression.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Farmer's Standard of Living' is a seminal sociological and economic study that examines the complex factors defining the quality of life for American agricultural families during the early twentieth century. Author Ellis Lore Kirkpatrick moves beyond simple income metrics to explore the diverse elements that contribute to a family's well-being, including housing, nutrition, health, education, and social participation within rural communities.Through the use of empirical data and detailed observations, the work presents a comprehensive view of how rural households allocate their resources and the social implications of these economic choices. The text addresses the disparities between urban and rural living standards and investigates the cultural and environmental influences that shape the farmer's priorities and aspirations. By categorizing expenditures and analyzing the 'value of living,' the author provides a pioneering framework for understanding the human side of the agricultural industry.As a foundational text in rural sociology and agricultural economics, 'The Farmer's Standard of Living' offers invaluable insights into the historical development of the American farm. It remains an essential resource for scholars and readers interested in the evolution of rural life, the history of economic thought, and the social structures of the pre-Depression United States.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
