Butterfield is a collection of essays and addresses written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the various challenges and opportunities faced by rural communities, particularly in the context of agriculture and social development. Butterfield aims to present a thoughtful analysis of the rural problem, drawing attention to the importance of education, organization, and social advancement in modern farming life. The opening portion of the book introduces the significant aspects of the rural problem, emphasizing a shift in societal attitudes towards farm life. Butterfield highlights a growing awareness of the farmer's plight and the need for scholarly attention on rural conditions. He critiques common misconceptions about rural life’s struggles and contrasts them with the potential for growth and improvement through education and organization among farmers.
