Not illustrated. 1917 edition. Excerpt: ...as a food for infants and invalids. In the early days every farmer raised his own beef and pork, and it was no uncommon thing for the farmer with a large family to "put down" five or six barrels of pork, besides packing or freezing several beeves for home consumption. Beef cattle could be grown and fattened on the hill pastures, and a little late-cut hay or corn fodder would carry them over winter. Improved types of beef cattle, however, were little known until after the first quarter of the last century. Following the introduction of the Devons, soon came fine specimens of the Shorthorns, and later the Herefords, commonly known as the "white faces." These two breeds did much to improve the quality of the beef, and it was no uncommon sight to see large droves of sleek beef cattle being driven from this county to New Haven and Bridgeport for use in these markets, or for shipment to New York. The Durham breed of cattle (later known as Shorthorns) had beef qualities that early led to their use on many farms. It was found, too, that some families or strains of this breed were excellent milkers, especially for the first six months of lactation, and many good dairies of grade Shorthorns were developed in the towns of Goshen, Litchfield, Watertown and Woodbury. The Ayrshires, too, early attracted attention for their heavy milking qualities, and large herds of the grades of these two breeds were early developed in connection with the cheese industry. About the middle of the last century, following the settling of central and northern New York and Ver Do mont, the "droving" (driving) of young cattle from these States each fall became a big business.

Excerpt from Rural Life in Litchfield County In many places in the county will be found extensive, low, peaty tracts of land, that once represented lake areas, but which have been filling in for thousands of years by the slow growth and decay of vegetation. In some instances such areas still have a small lake or pond near the center, as in the case of Beeslick Pond in Salis bury. During the slow processes of time, water-weeds crept into these old lakes, peat moss and bushes reached out from the shallow water at the edge, and in the course of many years the lake was transformed into a mere bog, rich in all kinds of botanical treasures. After many more years, as the outcome of changes due to tillage and drainage, it may have become a good piece of mowing land.
