Memorial

Few men have had the opportunity to embrace and serve a pioneering organization as did the late E. S. Guthrie, Cornell University. As a young Ohio instructor he attended the founding meeting of the National Association of Dairy Instructors and Investigators, Urbana, Illinois, July 17, 1906. Later, in 1917, this group became the American Dairy Science Association.

Sixty years from the founding date his summons came "to join the innumerable caravan which moves to that mysterious realm." E. S. Guthrie so lived and served those threescore years—academically, industrially, socially, spiritually—that he could respond to the call that Bryant so well phrased:

"By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave, Like one that wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams."

In that span of time he saw the great dairy industry emerge into and develop into a giant agricultural enterprise. He experienced its many growing problems and worked unceasingly toward their solutions.
