day.
The following day the three of us
went to her house at noon. She looked
little surprised as we came, but said
nothing. After about half an hour
we wondered when we were to have
dinner. She asked me why we were
back from school so early that noon.

JUST KEPT GROWING

The origins of these antiquated, cum
bersOme, costly, inefficient pieces Of the
national machinery that we call the
executive departments show how any
establishment if well watered with
government money will expand and
hold together, no matter how conflict
ing and incOngruOuS its functions.
Hardly one of these great business es-
tablishments-fOr that is what they
are-was planned. AS they are today
they just happened.
Take the Department of Agriculture,
for example, one of the greatest and
most complex and widespreading of all
the departments. 1t is in closer touch
and more directly affects the greatest
number of people in the United States
than any other branch of the govern
ment with the possible exception of
On appropriation Of $1,000, taken from
the patent funds for the distribu-
ton of free seeds and the collection
Of agricultural statistics by the patent
office, then a bureau in the State de-
partment Now look at the darned
thing. 1t is all over the place.
The tide of the department indicates
its most important field of activities, but
its functions have been extended to in
clude the whole range of rural indus
try and some branches Of administra-
ton only very indirectly related to
agricultural intert SITS. For about SO
years subsequent to the Revolution the
general interests of agriculture were
left almost entirely to individual initia-
tive. Federal activity was confined to
relatively narrow limits and was mere
~ Sporadic. Soon after the national
government was organized some at
tempts were made to establish board
of agriculture; but neither the first
proposal in 1876 nor a second effort in
1917 was successful.
Shortly after the Revolution. follow
lin while in England. as agent of the
colony of Pennsylvania during the
years 1864 to 1775, American consuIs
and naval officers began the practice
of sending home foreign seeds and cut
tlngs for new crops, and of aiding in
the introduction into the United States
of new breeds Of domestic animals.
Even such small governmental partici-
patton was, in the beginning, rather
eXtra-oflicial.
In 1886 the commissioner of pat
ents, one H. L. Ellsworth, began the
distribution of considerable quantities
of seeds and plants received from gov
eminent representatives in foreign
countries; and three years later

HAPHAZARD EXTENSION

biological stations had an aggregate
area of over $4,000 acres, with a value
of $4,000. The Improvements and
equipment at these stations repre-
scented an investment of more than
$1,O00.00O. Other property of the bu-
going steam and sail vessels, 20 steam
launches and $50 small sail, power and

Indeed, the total investment of the
government in fishery-service property
ran to about $1,585,0O0. That was
back in 1909.
Well, it hasn't stopped growing !;
bigger and buster than ever, as the ad-
vertisements say. The appropriation by
congress for the fiscal year 1919 was
$1,1S3, 40, and for 1921, $1,207, ITO.
Besides what congress gave, the Pres
ident allotted in 1918 and 1919, out of
his private fund "for the national Sc
curity and Defense" 100000. With the
years of its growth and increasing
funds the bureau had taken on many
new functions and activities.
Until recently the bureau was adj
ministering to the best of its ability
the laws relating to the terrestrial and
arboreal fur bearers of Alaska, but
the duty was incOngruOus to its legiti-
mate functions. Congress finally con-
coded that the pursuit of foxes does
not constitute a fishery. The cultiva-
ton of minks cannot be successfully
conducted in a fish hatchery.
Apparently, as so many other estab-
lishments under the executive branch
have, the fisheries service had become
all cluttered up with duties and jobs
it is not fitted or equipped to handle.
All of which Is a long, long way
from an investigation of the possible
diminution of food fish along the
coast.
don't pretend to say of the fisheries
bureau that 1t has performed inefii-
GENTLY either its proper work or the
added activities that have been i'm
posed upon 1t. For all l know 1t
may be and is a great national bless
ing, and managed with maximum skill,
intelligence and real economy. l hope
1t is.
l cite 1t here only as an example Of
branch of governmental activity that
has grown up haphazard from a small
beginning to be great, costly, far
spreading enterprise that by its own
confession is overlad with duties,
functions and activities unrelated to
its legitimate and essential business
the care, propagation and study of all
manner of food fish.
