Cuming County
When European settlers first came to Cuming County, They saw only what the Omaha, Pawnee, Otoe, and Ponca, and a few early trappers and traders had always seen: grass. Eventually, a network of dirt roads, graveled county roads, and paved highways replaced the deer paths and Indian trails. So has run the winding path of Cuming County's continual transformation into a patchwork quilt of farm fields, cattle yards, homes, and businesses, stitched together with the firm threads that make a county strong.

My Struggle Upward
James Cuming was a farmhand and farrier in Scotland and America before he came to Melbourne, Victoria. There he established the superphosphate industry that powered Australia's grain frontier in the decades leading to Federation and the early Commonwealth. His memoir - a record of ambition, application, and achievement - is self-questioning and reflective. How had modest abilities brought him success and wealth as a pioneer industrialist? What explained the failure of his father, a man of great promise? How was the son to discharge his obligations to the sometimes-struggling family he had left in Scotland and America, to the working-class community he had generated in Melbourne's western suburbs of Footscray and Yarraville, and to the needy of the great metropolis beyond? Readers of James' honest and soul-searching My Struggle Upward will understand why he became renowned for his geniality, humility, benevolence, and generosity.
