Franklin Hiram King (8 June, 18484 August, 1911) was an American agricultural scientist who trained at Cornell University. He is best known for designing the storage silo for holding grain. King served as a professor of agricultural physics at the University of Wisconsin from 1888 until 1902. Some have speculated that the designer of the Guggenheim, Frank Lloyd Wright, was influenced by King's designs.
