Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service photograph album, approximately 1906-1917.
title
Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service photograph album, approximately 1906-1917.
Subject
Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service, Photograph albums, Agriculture, Louisiana
Date created ms
1906, 1917
Abstract
The Louisiana Cooperative Extension photograph album, dated approximately 1906-1917, contains roughly 300 black and white photographs. The images cover a variety of agricultural topics including Louisiana State Fair exhibitions, Train Demonstrations, LSU agricultural and veterinary studies, Sugar and Rice Experiment Stations, forestry, Boy's Pig Clubs, livestock, and various crops and agricultural processes. Approximate dates of the album span the establishment of the Farmer's Cooperative Demonstration Work, the Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service, as well as LSU School of Agriculture Farmer's Short Course.

It is probable that the photographs primary purpose, besides documentation, was publication. Many photographs within the album are identified as the work of Baton Rouge photographer, Jasper G. Ewing.

Several photographs were published in the University Bulletin, Extension Circulars, or Louisiana Bulletin dated 1906-1920. Persons of note identified within the photograph album include W. H. Dalrymple, W. R. Dodson, Helen Graham, E. L. Jordan, Elizabeth B. Kelley, E. S. Richardson, and V. L. Roy. The photographic prints of varying sizes were pasted in a black paper album.

Several pages contain groupings of up to five photographs per page, as well as occasional front and back montages. Multiple image groupings typically cover a similar subject matter. An attempt to remove the photographs from the album pages was made in the past.

The removal process has left thirty-seven photograph groupings without their pages intact. The album also contains four loose photographs that were never pasted among its bound pages. The pagination of the album, as it was housed prior to processing, has been maintained.
