3896. INDIANS, Agriculture and.—
The
decrease of game rendering their subsistence by
hunting insufficient, we wish to draw them to
agriculture, to spinning and weaving. The latter

because they fall to the women, who gain by
quitting the labors of the field for those which
are exercised within doors.—
To Governor Harrison. Washington ed. iv, 472.
