Explanation:

In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln appointed the first chemist to serve in the Department of Agriculture. The Meat Inspection Act was passed in 1906, the Food and Drugs Act (the original one) was in 1906 as well (though there were earlier efforts and it was updated over time), the requirement about bread ingredients wasn't a key 1862 action, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was founded in 1906 (originating from earlier bureaus) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) was founded in 1946.

Answer:

He appointed the first chemist to serve in the Department of Agriculture.
