As I was processing a collection of agricultural yearbooks (1902-1998), I didn’t expect much in the way of beauty.
But amidst the descriptions of foot-and-mouth disease, insect infestation, and state-by-state parameters for “a bushel,” I found these delightful color plates.
Enjoy the fruits of my labor – all from The Yearbook of Agriculture: 1902 (published by the US Department of Agriculture).
