The passing of Arthur Christopher Baer at Stillwater, Oklahoma, on the seventh day of January, nineteen hundred twenty-nine, is a great loss to all who are interested in the dairy industry throughout the United States and the world.
Thirteen years ago, Professor Baer, then instructor at the University of Wisconsin, was asked to come to the Agricultural College of Oklahoma to assume head of the Dairy Department. During these past years he worked untiringly to advance the cause in which he was so much interested and in which he was so well equipped with knowledge and experience.
In his young manhood, Professor Baer studied under some of the outstanding men in the dairy industry; notably, Dr. Babcock, Dean Henry and Professor Farrington. In the later years of his life he was looked upon as an authority—particularly in the manufacture of ice cream—having written a number of publications on the subject.
