Rolfs, P. H. (Peter Henry), 1865-1944. Correspondence and subject files, 1921-1943.

Title: Correspondence and subject files, 1921-1943.

This series in the Peter Henry Rolfs Collection documents Rolfs' tenure as the first director of the Escola Superior de Agricultura e Veterinaria do Estado de Minas Gerais, em Viscosa, and as Consultor Technico to the Department of Agriculture for the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil. Also documented is the period after Rolfs' retirement in 1932. The correspondence file contains letters written and received by both Rolfs and his daughter Clarissa Rolfs. Correspondence is most extensive for the years 1932-1933; correspondence for earlier and later years is fragmented. The subject files contain articles and speeches written by the Rolfses, as well as letters and reports related to Peter Henry Rolfs' administrative duties. Of special note are Rolfs' annual reports for the Escola Superior and other documents related to the early years of the school and Brazilian agricultural education. Also of note are trip reports by Rolfs and others describing rural conditions in Brazil, primarily in the state of Minas Gerais, and Rolfs' reports to the Secretario de Agricultura for Minas Gerais. Rolfs' articles and speeches reflect a variety of research interests. Brazil's citrus industry is well documented, as is the cultivation of plants for the treatment of leprosy.
