EDITORS COMMENTS
- a humorous illustration from a 1905 issue of Puck magazine. In this depiction, Theodore Shonts, labeled as the Canal Commission, is shown milking a cow that is feeding on a unique mixture of hay and money, labeled as "Appropriation." Shonts sits comfortably with a full bucket labeled "Progress" between his knees. In the background, William Howard Taft, then Secretary of War, stands with a pitchfork, looking up towards an outbuilding labeled "US Treasury" located up on a hill. The barn scene is a satirical commentary on the political process of funding infrastructure projects during President Theodore Roosevelt's administration. The use of a cow and the label "fodder" adds to the playful nature of the illustration, as it humorously suggests that government funds are being used to feed the insatiable appetite for progress and development. The date of the illustration is November 15, 1905.
