The American Windmill



Is more than a machine
It is a national symbol, evoking
different memories in each of us
What the buffalo meant to the American Indians
What the horse meat to Spaniard,
That is what the windmill meant to 
The American settlers- survival
development, staying power
Any observer could see that three 
Essentials to the 
Settlement  of the Great Plains
were ...
Barbed wire, the colt six-shooter, and cheap WindMills...
