Men killed off the buffalo and then the passenger pigeon, cut over the forest and let the sunlight in to dry up the swamp, plowed the new ground and called it prog ress. Then somebody missed the wind whispering through the pine trees and stopped to wonder. Crops failed, springs dried up, gullies scarred the hillsides and the rivers ran muddy red.
