My grandparents on my mother's side were plain, Hew England farzers, with only the local country schools for education. That was in Weare, New Hampshire. I was born therc in my grandfather'e hopla. [~sughing]My mother, I suppose the aaae as some people do today, went to her home to have her baby. That fanfly's name was Sleeper. My nother's first name was Ruth. Riess s Did your parents live near your grandparents? Greggt Yes. They went bacsk and forth at will, there was no dis- tanae in traveling. Riessr How much land did your grandfather have? Greggt Oh, it wasn't a big ranch, or anything of that sort, just one of these small New England homes. I think my grand- father's property probably covered around 60 or 70 acres. Greg<: He raised cattle for milk and sold the milk to a big company located in Boston. He vould take the milk in oms to the railroad atation and put it on the train to Boston. SO the typa of faraiag that they carried on was prinoipally raising food for osttle-as well as having a vegetable garden, Phey rai~edtheir wheat and oats and put up their hay for winter uee. That was their type of agriculture, if you want to use that all-inclusive tern?. Their business was raising milk for sale. There was 8 coafortsble living in that. And thia was in thie aioe, old Hew Englad town where most of the residents raised milk too; my grandfather wasn't the only one who had dairy cattle, The farm vas run quite successfully, and one reason was the oooperative opirit of others in the am8 town or general area. One farmer would say, #I'll help you now, and you help me when I'm ready," The next-door neighbor would help in the haying, or planting the oorn for cattle- feed. People in those days took good advant~geof the apirit of helpfulness and they got their farming done sucoessfully with that type of cooperative help without having to pay for any labor at all. f don't remember my grandfather on his farm ever employing anybody. Greggr Another situation that I don't think exists very much today Was that they could and did sell products to the local groceryman for exchange, for some augar or other food that they veren't raising at all, I om remember my grmdmother saying, "Well, Harvey,"--his first name was Barney Sleeper--"vetve got more eggs than we want( you'd better take them down to the store and get ne sonte salt," Or augar, or something they wanted along those lines, That bartering progran was all over Nev Englsad in thogo early days. Riesat And the grocer resold the things? Qregg: They vould resell such things as eggs to people who were liviq in the town and were not in the position to grow or get things themselves--like the teacher In the school, Riesss The milk, did they barter some of that? Oregg: Yes, it would be Just taken and used locally, without any treating that you see nowadays, just raw. In those days the producers of milk didn't have to go through my cheoa- ical process or anything of that sort. Riess: Were oonditions at your grandfather's farm checked by an inspector? Gregg: Oh, an inspector would come around once in a while, if I Greggr remember correctly, but there waa nothing done mienti- fically the way it ita today at all. We're oleon people and we've got a good dairy herd here and we're producing milk and we're selling it to you, just as it is. Riesst Did your mother have anp brothers? Oreggs lo, no she was the only one. Riessc So there vas never a son to help your grandfather an the farm? Greggt No, but the farm women themselves did a lot to help in the farming. Wg. gran&other, during haying time, would go out and rake after my grandfather, and any helpers he might have had in the way sf neighbors, vhile they nowed the hay with these old-fsehioned scythes, you ~OV. She would follov up and rake that hay into a pile. Those farmers Rrev a lot of their own fruif8, too; tney h:id their apples, their peaches, and my grandnother would help harvest and preserve food for winter use. I remember they had several peach cznd apple tree8 arid they would peel and slice up and string them on lines on a frame for them to dry, to have dried apples. In the future they could use them for pies. men, they'd kill Or egg a a pig every fall and have their own fat and their own meat. They didn't have any of the oil and shortening products that we have now, they had their lard right there. They'd try out the fat from slawhteriw the hog and put it down In little wooden tubs for the winter. And tbey made their own butter from their own milk--aany a tine f pumped one of these up-ad-down churns to get butter. Rieast They raised that pig themselves? Greggt Yes, same as the ohiokens and turkeys. Riesst Chiefly for th~irown use? Gregg: Or for barter at the local country store. Ries8 t Sheep? Qreggt Oh, yes, and they had the wool froa them, and grandmother --and I can remember xay great-grandmother, too--had one of these great, big spinning wheels. They raised that wool, and cardad some of it, and sold some of it to the mills. What little they did at home was for their own spinning. But those were the days of the big mills. Riesst Were they nearby? Oregg: Yes, aompared with mileages th:~twe apgreoiate out here, but not far enough that the wool couldn't be sent to these kregg t mi11s.

  • Laos, Known As the “Land of a Million Elephants,” Is a Landlocked Country in Southeast Asia About the Size of Kansas
    DO NOT COPY WITHOUT PERMISSION OF AUTHOR Simon J. Bronner, ed. ENCYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN FOLKLIFE. Armonk, NY: M.E. Sharpe, 2005. Rachelle H. Saltzman, Iowa Arts Council, Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs [email protected] LAO Laos, known as the “Land of a Million Elephants,” is a landlocked country in Southeast Asia about the size of Kansas. The elephant symbolizes the ancient kingdom of Lan Xang, and is sacred to the Lao people, who believe it will bring prosperity to their country. Bordered by China to the north, Vietnam to the east, Cambodia to the south, Thailand to the west, and Myanmar (formerly Burma) to the northwest, Laos is a rough and mountainous land interwoven with forests and plateaus. The Mekong River, which runs through the length of Laos and supplies water to the fertile plains of the river basin, is both symbolically and practically, the lifeline of the Lao people, who number nearly 6 million. According to Wayne Johnson, Chief for the Iowa Bureau of Refugee Services, and a former Peace Corps Volunteer, “the river has deep meaning for the ethnic Lao who are Buddhist because of the intrinsic connection of water with the Buddhist religion, a connection that does not exist for the portion of the population who are non-ethnically Lao and who are animists.” Formally known as the Kingdom of Laos, and now known as Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Laos was, in previous centuries, periodically independent and periodically part of the Khmer (Cambodian), Mongol, Vietnamese, and Thai (Siamese) empires. Lao, Thai, and Khmer (but not Vietnamese) share a common heritage evident today in similar religion, music, food, and dance traditions as well as language and dress.

  • The Influence of Social Condition Towards the String Ensemble Development in Rattanakosin Era
    THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL CONDITION TOWARDS THE STRING ENSEMBLE DEVELOPMENT IN RATTANAKOSIN ERA PANSAK VANDEE Department fo Music Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University 1 U-Thong nok Road, Dusit, Bangkok 10300 Thailand Abstract- The research aims to study the influence of social condition towards the string ensemble development during Rattanakosin period; and to study the role of string ensemble in Thai society. The study is counted as a historical research applying a set of methods, namely, documentation research, field study, and in-depth interview with 10 historians and Thai classical music experts.The research results are as follows : According to the research on the Thai string ensemble, the first ensemble was created at the earlyAyutthayaperiod and was popularly performed among artists until the early Rattanakosin era.During the Western colonialism, the Thai society was changed in terms of policy by King Rama IV.A lot ofdevelopmentplans were launched to be compatible withthe western.In particular, the Royal court and noble circle adjusted themselves by adopting some western cultures. The Thai string ensemble was developed and formed as a recreational activity to please the elite group. The later king, King Chulalongkorn,had expanded his father’s idea of modernization by sending his sons and cousins to study in Europe. In the meantime, the Thai musicians and singers also had chances to perform, exchange and share their experience with the western artists. Upon their return to Thailand, the western style of performance was introduced to the royal court and some instruments were added to the conventional band, such as violin and organ. These were continuously adapted to the royal court of King Rama VI, King Vajiravudh, who graduated from Oxford University, as the Thai string ensemble with piano.
