UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF 



AGRICULTURE. 



The 1910 Year Book. 



The seventeenth volume of the 

 Year Book (1910) will soon be issued 

 by the U. S. Department of Agricul- 

 ture. In appearance and make-up it 

 differs but little from its predecessors: 

 it contains 28 articles; 49 full page il- 

 lustrations, of which eight are colored; 

 and 31 text figures. 



The Department's appreciation of 

 the service of the late Senator Jona- 

 than Prentiss DoUiver rendered to ag- 

 riculture during his public career is 

 expressed in the selection of a por- 

 trait of him as a frontispiece. 



The Fourteenth Annual Report of 

 the Secretary, for the fiscal year end- 

 ed June 30, 1910, occupies the first 

 156 pages and gives the "general re- 

 port of the operation of the Depart- 

 ment," which, under the law, must 

 form a part of the volume. This re- 

 port, supplemented by the statistical 

 matter found in the appendix, gives 

 a more complete and comprehensive 

 summary of agricultural conditions in 

 the United States than can be found in 

 any other single publication. 



The next 320 pages, divided between 

 28 articles contributed by many mem- 

 bers of the scientific force of the De- 

 partment, contain data upon many of 

 the important questions now promi- 

 nent in the public eye, and equally vi- 

 tal to the agricultural and urban pop- 

 ulation both as producers and consum- 

 ers of the food stuff of the nation.
