Dairy Plant President Dies Here
Albert A. Schlotzhauer, proprietor of the Lake View Dairies at 609 N. Tioga St, president of the Arctic Ice Cream Company, and for many years identified with poultry and creamery enterprises in Ithaca and vicinity, died in Memorial Hospital today, Sept 7, 1945. He resided at 501 Utica St.
Born in Canajoharie, he came to Ithaca in the early 1900s to take a short course at Cornell University and for 3 years thereafter he was an instructor in the Dairy Department before he took over the management of a large creamery at Briarcliff Manor, on the Hudson River, in those days one of the largest metropolitan area milk supply depots.
Condensary Organized
A few years later he established his own creamery at Athens, Pa., and shortly afterwards organized the Spencer Condensary, which he operated with his father-in-law, Clarence Brigham. On Aug. 7, 1913, they organized the Ithaca Condensed Milk and Cream Company and purchased a building on W. Clinton St.
The business grew when large contracts were made with the Hires Condensed Milk Company of Philadelphia which later purchased the plant and in turn sold out to the Nestle Milk Company. The building is still known as the old condensary.
Schlotzhauer and his father-in-law then operated a condensary at Big Flats, the former returning to Ithaca to organize the Arctic Ice Cream and Milk Company with William A. Luce. Schlotzhauer had served as president ever since. He purchased the Lake View Dairies about 25 years ago from Liddington Dairy. Ten years ago he branched out into the poultry business when he established the Laymore Poultry Farms on the Trumansburg Rd.
Member of Masons
He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Grace Barrett of Trumansburg and Mrs. Marie Benton of Ithaca; a son, Maj. Walter Schlotzhauer of the U.S. Army stationed in Rochester; a brother, Charles Schlotzhauer of Canajoharie, and a sister, Mrs. Minnie Goering of Boston, Mass.
He was a member of several Masonic organizations, having originally joined the Spencer Lodge several years ago. Funeral arrangements will be announced.
