Dr. Garten lived in Kansas in the early part of his life, moving to Medicine Lodge from Kentucky while a young man. During the territorial days in Oklahoma he was engaged quite extensively in stock raising, driving his cattle overland from the territory country to the Kansas markets. In 1905 he moved to Lindsay, Oklahoma, taking up veterinary work as a profession, having graduated from the American Institute of Veterinary Science of Chicago, Illinois in 1898. He bought his home in Lindsay soon after he came here and had been more or less active in the community life of this city until his passing.
He was a member of several fraternal organizations in this city and maintained his membership in the local camp of the Modern Woodsmen of America until the time of his death. He was a staunch democrat and took an active part in local politics since Oklahoma became a state.
