Henry Cullen Adams (November 28, 1850 – July 9, 1906) was an American farmer, public administrator, and progressive Republican politician from Dane County, Wisconsin. He served the last three years of his life in the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Wisconsin's 2nd congressional district from 1903 until his death in 1906. In Congress, he was best known for his support of pure food laws—which protected the interests of Wisconsin dairy farmers.
