swfchan: Sod Houses.swf (info)

Text

Sod houses, or soddies

were made when logs or stone were scarce

or unavailable

Such occurrences were found mainly in the

prairies and plains, where the prairie grasses

are much stronger than normal grass,

and could be built up to form sturdy structures.

Buffalo grass, wire grass, Indian and wheat grass

were some of the strong rooted materials

used to make sod houses.

Although they were usually damp and would require

frequent repair, they were inexpensive and easy to make.

Further improving the amount of material was the invention

of the grasshopper plow.

Some families went to extreme lengths to produce

a quality sod house, in the vein of building a two-story

house in Broken Bow, Nebraska.

Because of the weak material used,

there are virtually no existing sod houses today.

(ain't that a freakin' shame...)
