This historical edition summarizes how New York's early 20th‑century agencies organized, regulated, and supported farming and food markets during a year of change and growth.

Two concise sections frame the department’s structure, key programs, and bold initiatives. It covers council actions, milk investigations, market reports, legal enforcement, and outreach to farmers, shippers, and consumers, giving a clear view of public service in agriculture and commerce at the time.
