         Matching the influx of foreign immigrants into the larger cities of the United States during the late nineteenth century was a domestic migration,from town and farm to city,within the United States.The country had been overwhelmingly rural at the beginning of the century,with less than 5 percent of Americans living in large towns or cities.The proportion of urban population began to grow remarkably after 1840,increasing from 11 percent that year to 28 percent by 1880 and to 46 percent by 1940,A country with only 6 cities boasting a population of more than 8,000 in 1800 had become one with 545 such cities in 1900.Of these,26 had a population of more than 100,000 including 3 that held more than a million people.Much of the migration producing an urban society came from smaller towns within the United States,but the combination of new immigrants and old American'settlers"on America's"urban frontier"in the late nineteenth century proved extraordinary.

        The growth of cities and the process of industrializationfed on each other.The agricultural revolution stimulated many in the countryside to seek a new life in the city and made t possible for fewer farmers to feed the large concentrations of people needed to provide a workforce for growing numbers of factories.Cities also provided ready and convenient markets for the products of industry,and huge contracts in transportation and construction-as well as the expanded market in consumer goods-allowed continued growth of the urban sector of the overall economy of the United States.

        Technological developments further stimulated the process of urbanization.One example is the Bessemer converter(an industrial process for manufacturing steel),which provided steel girders for the construction of skyscrapers.The refining of crude oil into kerosene,and later the development of electric lighting as well as of the telephone,brought additional comforts to urban areas that were unavailable to rural Americans and helped attract many of them from the fatms into the cities.In every era the lure of the city included a major psychological element for country people,the bustle and social interaction of urban life seemed particularly intriguing to those raised in rural isolation.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon:basalt and breccia.Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the E

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for existing train stations and bridges.In 1863,after spending time working as

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived from a place name.In the seventeenth century,French tailors began making trousers out of a specialized t
