it was called boss of the plains because everybody wore the stetson hat in the west
It was invented by John Stetson in 1865 while on a hunting trip
The cowboy hat, as we know it today, was popularized in the late 19th century but has roots that trace back to earlier styles. The specific design often credited to John Stetson was created in 1865, when he made the "Boss of the Plains" hat, intended for practicality and durability on the range. This style evolved over time and became synonymous with cowboy culture in the American West.

An important product made from steel that transformed both the farming and cattle industry on the Great Plains was the steel plow. Invented by John Deere in the 1830s, this durable plow made it possible to efficiently break through the tough, sticky soil of the region, enabling farmers to cultivate previously untillable land. Its effectiveness significantly increased agricultural productivity, which in turn supported the expansion of cattle ranching by providing better feed and land for grazing. This innovation played a crucial role in shaping the agricultural landscape of the Great Plains.
Joseph Glidden and John Deere significantly influenced westward settlement by providing essential tools for agriculture. Glidden invented barbed wire in 1874, which facilitated the fencing of land, enabling settlers to efficiently manage livestock and protect crops. Meanwhile, John Deere's development of the steel plow in 1837 made it easier to cultivate the tough, prairie soil, promoting farming in previously challenging areas. Together, their innovations helped transform the Great Plains into productive farmland, encouraging more settlers to move westward.
