Abstract
THE sudden death of Reginald Arthur Berry, which took place in Glasgow on Oct. 12, at the early age of fifty-two years, deprives Scotland of one of its most active workers in agricultural science. Berry was educated at Oundle and at Cambridge. After acting as assistant for several years to the late Prof. Liveing, he transferred in 1900 to the School of Agriculture at Cambridge. There he worked with Prof. T. B. Wood for the next five years, and, in collaboration with him, published some valuable papers; in particular their investigation into the composition of root crops has always been regarded as a fundamental piece of work.
