15 linear feet, 4 linear inches (35 LGA-S boxes)
Herbert Hoover Presidential Library
BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
Bonney Youngblood graduated from Texas A & M in 1902 and earned a Ph.D. in agricultural economics from the University of Wisconsin in 1921. He served with the USDA as an assistant agriculturalist from 1907 until 1911. He directed the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station from 1911 to 1926. In 1926 Youngblood established a cotton marketing research program to solve problems of overproduction, low prices, and rural poverty in the South. Youngblood worked for the Office of Experiment Stations from 1929 until his retirement in 1950.
The Southwestern Range and Sheep Breeding Laboratory was established to enhance Navaho woolen products and to improve the tribe's living standard and self-sufficiency. Youngblood established an agricultural experiment station in Rio Piedra, Puerto Rico to study tropical crops. The studies were useful during World War II when hemp, jute and rubber were in short supply. Youngblood was one of the founders of the Society for Rural Sociology.
SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
The collection contains correspondence, reports, biographical information, speeches, writings, and recipes. Subjects include: agricultural economics, rural sociology, Navajo Indians, the Department of Agriculture Office of Experimental Stations, and the Southwestern Range and Sheep Breeding Laboratory. Correspondence with M. L. Wilson includes letters on agricultural policies. Cotton marketing is addressed in correspondence, reports, and committee findings.
Information on the Puerto Rican station is found in reports and correspondence.
