STEPHEN MOULTON BABCOCK
Handwritten sentiment of the agrarian chemist and pioneer nutritionist
Autograph Sentiment signed: "Very truly yours,/S. M. Babcock", 3x1¼. Stephen Moulton Babcock (1843-1931), an agricultural chemist, devised in 1890 the Babcock Test, which measures the butterfat content of milk. In a series of experiments over the first decade of the 20th century, Babcock fed single grains exclusively to separate sets of cows, determining that cattle nourished exclusively on corn were much healthier than those fed only wheat. This "single grain test" influenced the development of modern nutritional science. Slight adhesive residue on verso. Otherwise, fine condition.
