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 IL well watered with
government money will expand and
hold together, no matter how conflict
Ing and homogeneous 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 widespreadlng 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
the post office. 1t began in 1889 with
an 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 bureau In the State de-
partment. Now look at the darned
thing. II Is all over the place. y
The title 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 interests. For about 90
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 6rst
proposal In 1875 nor q second effort In
1877 was successful.
Shortly after the Revolution. follow
ing the example Of Benjamin Frank
lin while In England as agent Of the
colony OF Pennsylvania during the
years 1784 to ITS, American cOnsuls
and naval officers began the practice
or sending home foreign seeds and cut
tings for new crops. and Of aiding N
the introduction into the United States
OF new breeds Of domestic animals.
Even such small governmental partici-
patton was. In the beginning, rather
extra official.
In 1885 the commissioner Of pat
ents. one II. L. Ellsworth, began the
distribution Of considerable quantities
OF seeds and plants received from gov
arnment- representatives In foreixn
