Book Description
Excerpt from Yearbook of the United States Department of Agriculture, 1905 In view of the recent somewhat active discussion with regard to Government publications more especially annual reports, and in view of the fact that, under the law providing for its issue, the Yearbook is designated as Part II of the Annual Report of the Secretary of Agriculture, it may be of interest to indicate the circumstances which have given to the Yearbook its present special character. The publication of the Yearbook is called for by an act providing for the public printing and binding, and the distribution of public documents, approved January 12, 1895, which is quoted on the opposite page. This act was the result of a careful and protracted investigation by the Joint Committee on Printing of the Senate and the House of Representatives concerning the character of public documents and the manner of distributing them. Of the publications issued under the law then existing, the Annual Report of the Department of Agri culture was necessarily the 'object of special consideration, owing to the very large edition, copies. It was recognized that in its old form the Annual Report of the Department contained a large amount of administrative detail of interest to comparatively few read ers outside of Congress, and consequently quite superfluous in a volume intended for widespread popular distribution. Besides these administrative details, the Annual Report was made the vehicle for a considerable amount of scientific matter. This matter was of interest chiefly to specialists in some one but rarely in all of the lines of scientific work pursued in the Department. Moreover, the growth of the Department and the creation of new 0 ices threatened to increase greatly the bulk of the volume. It was, therefore, wisely determined to divide the Annual Report of the Department into two parts, sepa rately bound. The first part, known as the Annual Reports of the Department of Agriculture, and issued in an edition of 00pies, contains, first, the personal report of the Secretary of Agriculture, addressed to the Presi dent, and, second, a detailed report from each division chief addressed to the Secretary.

Excerpt from Department of Agriculture of the State of Virginia: Annual Report for the Year 1905 H on. G. W. Koiner, Commissioner of Agriculture and Immigration. Sir, - Since making my last report to you everything in this division has progressed smoothly, although it has been very much crowded with work, more so than ever before. On June lst, Mr. H. H. Hurt, the First Assistant Chemist, resigned to accept a position with the Bureau of Chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture. Dr. C. M. Bradbury, the Second Assistant, was made First Assistant, and Mr. J. B. Robb, of Caroline county, was appointed Second Assistant. Mr. Robb has the degree of Bachelor of Science of the Agricultural College, Maryland, and the degree of Master of Science of Columbian University, and he was First Assistant to the State Chemist of Maryland. For two months during the summer Mr. P. L. Conquest, Jr who had taken a two-year course in chemistry at the University of Virginia, worked in the laboratory simply for the practical experience to be gained. He rendered valuable assistance, and aided materially in finishing up the large amount of work on hand at that time.

Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Reports of the Department of Agriculture, 1899 To the President: I have the honor to report upon the work of the Department of Agriculture for the year ending June 30, 1899. This report touches upon the work regularly carried on by the several Bureaus, Divisions, and Offices, and also indicates the new lines of scientific inquiry inaugurated by the Department for the benefit of producers in the several States. A brief summary precedes more extended consideration. I have also endeavored to give in sufficient detail the reasons for the estimates presented to Congress to carry on the work for the coming year. Summary. Weather Bureau. - The extension of the Weather Bureau service around the Caribbean Sea has been abundantly successful in noting the first indications of cyclones, forecasting their movements, and giving timely warning to our Navy, to merchant vessels, and to producers and others interested on land. Division of Chemistry. - This Division is becoming a necessity to every Department of the Government in the making of chemical analyses. Foods are investigated, preservatives of all kinds examined, sugar beets analyzed, etc. An interesting inquiry has been made into the change which takes place in the composition of grains grown repeatedly on the same soil. Division of Entomology. - Since Dr. Howard has shown owners of Smyrna fig trees on the Pacific coast how to get the fruit fertilized, there is good reason to believe that in a few years we shall obtain our fine figs from that locality. Investigation by this Division shows that house flies and mosquitoes may be greatly reduced by removing the propagating conditions. Division of Botany. - The Department is gathering information regarding the life history of the plants that supply commerce with india rubber and gutta-percha, and should Congress be pleased to give direction, it will seek the plant zones in our island possessions where these commodities may be produced. The United States now pays $30,000,000 annually for rubber. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
