Book Description
Ozark Plants is a full-color field guide to over 500 plant species found in the Ozark Mountain region of southern Missouri, northern Arkansas, and the northeastern corner of Oklahoma. Illustrated with hundreds of color photographs, the book describes each plant followed by a discussion of the plant's distribution, habitat, and value for wildlife and livestock. A key is provided so that the reader may more easily identify unknown plant specimens. The Ozark region is a plateau and mountain area of more than 40,000 square miles at the western edge of the eastern deciduous forest, and host a rich assemblage of plant species. Overall, nearly 3,300 vascular plant species are known from the region, within approximately 1066 genera and 186 families. This diversity is due, in part, to a long presence uninterrupted by glaciation, varied site and soil conditions, and a midcontinental geographic position. This geographical location has resulted in many species with distributional centers outside of the Ozarks reaching their range limits here. For example, the range of certain plants from the southwestern United States extends to the Ozarks, typically in dry-soil environments such as the glades. On moist, north-facing slopes, plants from the northern and eastern United States may be found. Some typically southern species occur in special habitats, including many parts of the Boston Mountains.

Book Description
Excerpt from Farm Management in the Ozark Region of Missouri: A Study of the Organization and Operation of a Number of Representative Farms The Operation of a general farm with much less than 40 acres of land for crops is exceedingly unsatisfactory, regardless of the location of the farm, whether among the valleys or among the hills. Size of business Is an important factor In farming throughout this area, but it is also true that the limit to the number of acres of crops which can be profitably included In one farm by the average operator Is reached more quickly with farms of rough and stony character than in the case of farms with land more easily cultivated, and perhaps this limit has been reached by some of the larger hill farms. The hand work involved In making a profit in farming on the poorer of the lands in this region is not generally recognized. Much of the land throughout the area changes hands often, and many of those who purchase such farms, especially those who try to Operate small farms with limited capital, must face a most difficult economic problem.
