Abstract
  • Sue Kunda explores the history of Oregon's public land-grant college, Oregon State University (OSU), through examples from over one hundred years of the university's Extension and Experiment Station Communications (EESC) publications. More than 8,000 of those publications are NOW available online covering a range of topics including rural homemaking practices, home economics and food preparation, crop production and weed control, home gardening, pesticide use, disaster preparedness and recovery, and sibling relationships. Online access to those publications, Kunda explains, “allows readers to explore Oregon's past — and its present — through an agriculture-based lens.”
  • This is the publisher’s final pdf. The published article is copyrighted by the Oregon Historical Society and can be found at: http://www.ohs.org/research/quarterly/.
