Howard H. Gross asks Theodore Roosevelt if he will join an advisory committee regarding appropriation funds for agricultural promotion throughout the country. Gross explains that the United States currently does not produce as much agriculturally as Germany, England, and Denmark, and asserts that with more federal funds for agricultural instruction, this can be corrected.
