      Historique

      The Bureau of Agriculture and Arts was established in 1868, continuing those functions of the former Bureau of Agriculture of the Province of Canada that related to Upper Canada, or Canada-West. The Bureau was attached to the Department of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Public Works, and was presided over by the Commissioner of Agriculture and Arts.

      In 1877, the Department of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Public Works was replaced by the Department of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Arts. The Bureau continued to exist, however, and formed a part of the new Department.

      In 1882, legislation was passed which replaced the Bureau of Agriculture and Arts with the Bureau of Industries.

      Fonctions et activités

      The Bureau of Agriculture and Arts was responsible for collecting facts and statistics relating to the agricultural, mechanical and manufacturing interests of the Province of Ontario. The Bureau was also required to establish a museum, illustrative of agriculture, horticulture, and arts and manufactures, as well as a departmental library. "Arts", at this time, referred more to the application of industrial, manufacturing and scientific pursuits, rather than to its current meaning.
