"Rural Wealth and Welfare: Economic Principles Illustrated and Applied in Farm Life" by Geo. T. Fairchild is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book explores fundamental economic principles specifically tailored for rural communities, particularly farmers and their families. It emphasizes the importance of wealth, welfare, and agriculture while examining the connections between productivity and economic practices in farming. The opening of the book begins with a dedication toagricultural students and proceeds with a preface where Fairchild states his purpose: to restate economic principles to make them relevant for rural audiences who have often been overlooked in economic literature. He outlines the necessity of understanding wealth in relation to community welfare and introduces concepts like the importance of health, wisdom, virtue, and the role of agriculture in creating wealth. Fairchild asserts that understanding economic principles is essential for the welfare of farmers and their families, especially in an increasingly interconnected global market. The introduction emphasizes that the study of wealth should focus on its accumulation, distribution, and consumption, specifically in the context of rural life.
