Fukuoka's innovative method of farming, dubbed the One Straw Revolution, has won supporters and adherents around the world, where his methods have been adapted to local conditions, zh Meeting the Expectations of the Land by Wes Jackson, Wendell berry, Bruce Colman (North Point Press, 1985) A classic in the field, this book of essays about the nature of good farming still speaks sense twenty-odd years after it was written, by reminding us that all agriculture depends on certain fundamentals: soil, sun, and water—certainly —but also care, intelligence, and a respect for legacy.

His book is, in many ways, an homage to the work of farmer-poet Wendell berry, and it teaches important lessons about the American agrarian past and the possibilities and necessities of an agrarian future. The One Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming by Masanobu Fukuoka (Gardners Books, 1992) From a small village on the island of Shikoku in southern Japan comes a story that brings together the classic elements of Taoist innovation: observation, insight, and a cheerful disregard for conventional wisdom.

We begin to anticipate the return of a certain raptor, the timing of a berry harvest, the angle of the sun on an April evening. Some of us step from this awareness directly into new allegiances, into a sense of political activism that springs from an expanded sense of community, while others just begin to feel more at home.

Bodacious Berries The Strawberry: Doubtless God could have made a better berry but doubtless God never did. —Dr. William Butler, seventeenth-century English writer Fresh fruits and berries add color, variety, and powerful nutrition to any meal, snack, or dessert. The vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals in fruit make it a food "superhero" and the ultimate brain fuel. Most fruits are 80 to 95 percent water (a composition much like the human body) and are naturally low in fat and calories.

All kinds of wheat start with the unprocessed wheat kernel, or wheat berry, which consists of three major parts: the bran, germ, and endosperm. Wheat bran, the rough outer covering, has little nutritional value but plenty of fiber. During milling, the bran is removed from the kernel. It's sold separately and used to add flavor and fiber to baked goods. Wheat germ, the embryo of the berry, is a concentrated source of vitamins, minerals, and protein. It has a nutty flavor and is very rich in oil, which causes it to turn rancid quickly.

The Long Emergency could provoke a broad renewal of religious observance in America out of misery and desperation, but I do not imagine that any large numbers of ordinary Americans will rush to become Amish.

As Wendell berry put it, "a corporation, essentially, is a pile of money to which a number of persons have sold their moral allegiance. ... It can experience no personal hope or remorse. No change of heart. It cannot humble itself. It goes about its business as if it were immortal, with the single purpose of becoming a bigger pile of money."1 The corporate oligarchs of, say, Wal-Mart, Archer Daniels Midland, and the Disney Corporation were not necessarily evil people, but it i.

On September 20, I received the official fax from Senator Byron Dorgan and nine members of Congress: Bernard Sanders, Jo Ann Emerson, Sherrod Brown, Gil Gutknecht, Rahm Emanuel, Dan Burton, Rosa DeLauro, Marion berry, and James Langevin. For me, a regular guy who had never been involved in politics, much less ever met a congressman or senator, it was an honor to receive that letter, signed by every one of them and with the "Congress of United States" seal on the letterhead. I marveled at it, reading it over and over again. Only about ten years earlier, I hadn't even been a U.S.

Senator Olympia Snowe (R-ME) added, "If European countries can safely trade prescription drugs, the United States should be up to the task as well,"8 while Representative Marion berry (D-AR) emphasized, "Here we are in a global economy, and the United States allows these drug companies to take advantage and rob our own people. That can't continue."5 When the elected representatives were done presenting their views, they had yet another surprise for me. Because of Pfizer's letter, Representative Jo Ann Emerson (R-MO), gave me a military flak jacket.
