Sub-series consists of annual alphabetical files for the period 1909 to 1949. These subject files were opened and arranged in alphabetical order according to title. Note that in this forty year period some variance existed. Until 1924, the file classification system was also broken down into three groups of files: the file of the Director of the Central Experimental Farm; administrative files; and operational files pertaining to the experimental stations. Within each group, files would then be arranged in alphabetical order. By 1925, this practice was abandoned, and the three groups - director, administrative and operational - were all incorporated into one alphabetical list. As well, the concept of opening a new file annually was not continually practised until after 1927: thus, some earlier files contained records over a period of years. Researchers should simply note that while the system appears at times disjointed, it is not incomprehensive.
