EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio between 1910 and 1917, depicts a group of corn growers assembled on the steps of a House office building in Washington D.C. The image is a testament to the agricultural community's influence on Capitol Hill during this period. Front and center in the fifth row from the bottom, with a determined expression, stands Congressman Stafford of Wisconsin. To his left, in the second row, is Congressman Ramseyer of Ohio, his face serious and focused. These men, along with their colleagues, came to the nation's capital to advocate for policies that would benefit their farming communities and the agricultural industry as a whole. The photograph captures the essence of a pivotal moment in American history, as the country transitioned from a rural agrarian society to an industrialized urban one. The boys in the photograph, dressed in overalls and holding hats, represent the future generations of farmers who would continue the legacy of their forefathers. The Harris & Ewing studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a leading photographic studio in Washington D.C. during the early 20th century. Their collection, now part of the Library of Congress, is a valuable resource for historians and researchers, providing a visual record of the people and events that shaped America's past. This photograph, in particular, offers a unique glimpse into the lives of the men and women who worked the land and influenced the political landscape of the United States.
