In 1877 J.L. Budd was hired as Professor of Horticulture and Forestry and Department the year the department was officially named as the first official department in agriculture. Professor Budd became recognized as the outstanding teacher of Horticulture in the northern plains and the US. Upon Professor Budds'death in 1905, Liberty Hyde Bailey said "that it ended the first epoch in the teaching of Horticulture in the country". He was recognized as one of if not the greatest horticultural teachers in the US. Also, he developed one of the largest fruit breeding programs in the country, with major emphasis on apples. The greatest problem with fruit growing in Iowa was lack of winter hardiness. Other minor crops were plums, pears and cherries. Prof. Budd served as Secretary of the Iowa Horticultural Society from 1873-1885 and from 1892-1895.In 1878 Prof. Budd was able to import 200 varieties 0f apples, some plums and cherries from Russia. In 1882 he and Charles Gibbs from Quebec, Canada visited England, Russia and other European countries where they collected over 100 varieties of apple, cherries, pears, and ornamentals. The apples were propagated, distributed to growers, and turned out to be a major embarrassment since they matured in late summer and would not store. In addition, the apples were very susceptible to diseases. However, they became very valuable germ plasm sources in breeding for winter hardiness. Professor Budd and others were successful in breeding a number of varieties, which were adapted to the plains states.
Some of Budd's students distinguished themselves as faculty members at various institutions. John Craig 0f Quebec, Canada after graduating from Iowa State returned to Canada as Dominion Horticulturist at Ottawa and in 1889 returned to Iowa State to replace Budd as Department Head. Later he went to Cornell University as Department Head. Others who became horticultural leaders were Charles A. Keiffer who received an MS degree in 1887 and went to South Dakota as Department Head and later moved to Missouri as department head. N. E. Hansen graduated with a BS degree in 1887 and an MS degree in 1895, moved to South Dakota and where he became an internationally known plant explorer and plant breeder. These are only a few of his students. They came from all over the state and country to study with Prof. Budd. Probably the most recognized of his students was S. A. Beach who will be discussed later.
For over 25 years he wrote a weekly article for the Des Moines Register. In 1884-85 Budd served as Acting President of the College.
Prof. Budd's daughter Etta was teaching at Simpson College at Indianola when George Washington Carver came there as a student. Since he was more interested in agriculture than art she convinced him to come to Iowa State. Upon arrival here he lived with her dad and mother. He later became manager of the greenhouses and according to Department of Horticulture records received his degree in 1885. The first MS degree in Horticulture was awarded in 1883.
The first BS degree as a Horticulture Major was approved in 1904 and the first 2 graduates in the major were W.C. Claybaugh and Arthur J. Secor.
The Horticulture Club was organized in 1900 as the first agricultual departmental club, which included forestry and landscape design. The first Forestry Club was formed in 1905. In 1917 the landscape design student formed a separate club called the Vistonians.
