520 _a"Catalogue of Economic Plants in the Collection of the U. S. Department of Agriculture" by William Saunders is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work serves as a descriptive list of various important economic plants gathered by the United States Department of Agriculture. Each plant is detailed with information regarding its origin, uses, and economic significance, reflecting the agricultural and botanical knowledge of the time. The opening of this catalogue begins with an introduction from William Saunders, who prepared the list on the directive of the Secretary of Agriculture, J. M. Rusk. This portion outlines the purpose of the publication, emphasizing its utility for visitors and researchers interested in the Department's work.
