    Definition:
    newspaperman, inventor, b. Munnsville, N.Y. He was the eldest son of William Dempster Hoard (q.v.). He learned the newspaper business through work on his father's Jefferson County Union, and Iater assumed charge of the mechanical department of his father's publishing plant in Fort Atkinson. He was co-editor, with his father, of the Jefferson County Union (1884-1918), and on his father's death became editor, serving in this capacity from 1918 to 1933. He was widely known for his militant crusades and trenchant editorials, and was president of the Wisconsin Press Association, and secretary of W. D. Hoard and Sons Co., which published the Jefferson County Union and Hoard's Dairyman. A student of anatomy and pathology, he invented the Hoard curative chair for the correction of back ailments. His brother, ARTHUR RALPH HOARD, b. Stockbridge, N.Y., the second son of W. D. Hoard, aided his father in founding Hoard's Dairyman (1885), a journal devoted to dairying and allied interests. In 1886 he became a promoter of Hoard's Creameries, an organization of local dairy interests designed to establish and improve standards of dairy products. This company grew into a large industry that shipped its products throughout the U.S. and to foreign countries. He had numerous other business interests, and served as vice-president of W. D. Hoard and Sons Co., president of the Better Sox Knitting Mills Co., vice-president of the First National Bank of Fort Atkinson, and director of the Northwest Manufacturing Co. The youngest son of W. D. Hoard, FRANK WARD HOARD, b. Columbus, Wis., attended the Univ. of Wisconsin Law School, and soon entered his father's publishing business. He was business manager of Hoard's Dairyman (1890-1918), and from 1918 until his death served as president and general manager of W. D. Hoard and Sons Co. He was part owner of the Better Sox Mills, and had numerous other business and real-estate interests. J. G. Gregory, ed., S.E. Wis. (4 vols., Chicago, 1932); F. L. Holmes, et aI., eds., Wis.

    William Bradford Hoard. Hoard went through a sharp religious conversion, giving up farming and blacksmithing to become a traveling Methodist minister and missionary to the Indians at a salary of $400 a year. Even in those days, this was hardly enough to support his wife and three surviving children. They worked the farm and worked for their neighbors. The oldest Hoard child, William Dempster Hoard, went to work for his
    grandfather, Enos. The grandfather not only was a successful dairy stockman, but he also had a large library and was a local political power. It was here that Hoard first learned about the advantages of animal, and particularly dairy based agriculture. In William Dempster Hoard's later writings, the love and influence of his grandfather are
    evident. He recalls his father much more fleetingly. It probably could be summed up with his remembrances of his father "as very sensitive to his honor, so much so that he was not a match in the ordinary course in commercial dealings with other men in the exchange of property. He was very high-minded and of intense and sincere
    religious bearing and thought" ... as well as his father's attempts to learn the Oneida language as "hard on the Indians and harder on the Gospel."
    William Dempster Hoard, of course, later moved to Wisconsin. After the great "hops bust"' of the late 1860s, he led a successful campaign, first with this newspaper, and then with Hoard's Dairyman magazine, to change Wisconsin's agriculture to a dairy base from wheat. He also, among other things, was elected governor, led the University of Wisconsin Board of Regents for 20 some years and founded what became known as the
    Progressive movement.
