Dear Joy,

Briefly, Dr S M Babcock was the first person to develop a test for fat content 
in milk and therefore pointed the way forward for homogenization.
It was another 29 years before homogenized milk actually appeared on the market.
I refer you to:

www.whymilk.com 

which will hopefully answer your question in detail.
