ABSTRACT
In 1920 Howard C. Jackson obtained the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, where he had received his B.S. degree within a few miles of the village where he was born.
Howard Jackson's professional career began about 10 years after the founding of the American Dairy Science Association. The tremendous progress made in subsequent years in such sciences as animal physiology, nutrition, genetics, and disease control was matched by comparable strides in knowledge of the chemistry, physical chemistry, enzymology, and bacteriology of milk and its products. The 50-year history of advances in science, technology, and economics described in the JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE of June, 1956, suggests the educational skills required to master and teach this discipline during this period of progress. In these years Howard Jackson reached his full stature as scientist, teacher, counselor, and administrator.
Beginning in 1915, Howard Jackson was an assistant and later an instructor in the Department of Dairy Industry at Cornell University.
