Excerpt from Index to Authors With Titles of Their Publications Appearing in the Documents of the U. S. Department of Agriculture: 1841 to 1897
Sir: I have the honor to transmit for publication as Bulletin No. 4 of the Division of Publications an Index to Authors with Titles of their Publications Appearing in the Documents of the Department of Agriculture from 1841 to 1897, inclusive; the agricultural reports published previous to 1862 as a part of the Patent Office reports being considered for the purposes of this work as agricultural report; This index was prepared by Mr. George F. Thompson while assistant in charge of the document section of this Division, but it is due to him to say that while it thus appears properly, as the title-page shows, under the direction of the chief of this Division, the greater part of the work was actually done by Mr. Thompson outside of the regular business hours, and both the suggestion and the plan of the work are largely his own.
The difficulties experienced by this Division during the past two years in its effort to answer all inquiries relating to the Department publications give assurance of the usefulness of the present publication and invite further effort in the direction of index work.
