In history they were used for making furniture, baskets as well as roofs and boats. The word comes from biblical Hebrew Qana. Furniture was made from wicker which is a woven fiber made into a material that is firm. These are mainly made from plant fibers but plastic can also be added to give it that extra strength. The most popular use for these is in patio chairs as they are moved often and are not very heavy.
Many believe that the river was planted with cane so that fur could be trapped and clothes such as coats could be made keeping the inhabitants warm during the cold winter months. Many other forms of catching animals where used as well such as traps and nets. All animals that had fur were also caught by pits, snares and dead falls.
When people go on holiday it is not a very good idea to let all the mail pile up on the door step as this is a sure sign for buglers that there is no one at home. Here one will be able to inform the paper that one will be leaving and returning on a certain date and the subscription will be stopped for that amount of time. This will leave one able to enjoy the break without continually hoping that the home is safe.
In the middle 1800s, James Crawford received a land grant for this location where the summers were hot and the winters cold. The mud was very thick all around and because of this and the mosquitoes no one really wanted to settle there. Thirty years later only four of them and a couple of slaves where the only people still living there.
When the railroads started to come through the area, James started a town which was named Katy. This name came to be known through his post office application request. The original train tracks and train stop can still be seen to this day. As time progressed families started arriving and soon hotels, saloons and stores were built.
Once the ground was cleared the first crops to be planted where cotton and peanuts. These where the most successful crops but later on rice started to be one of the better favored by the locals. Soon ranches and farms sprung up and this little town later became popular due to its rice farming. The first concrete rice dryer was built in 1944 and still to this day stands as a marker from all those years ago. Katy TX has prospered in this city where it once was just open prairies.
