Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. 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. They were commonly brought to Connecticut as two-yearolds, and by...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Litchfield Book of Days: A Collation of the Historical, Biographical, and Literary Reminiscences of the Town of Litchfield, Connecticut The Litchfield of to-day is in many respects a modern town. Its stores, with scarce an exception, are as new as those of Seattle or Tacoma; its churches have all been built within the memory of men and women who worship in them. And while for more than a century the beauty of its situation and the charm of its streets have been justly celebrated, yet it is within recent years that all this has been greatly enhanced by the Village Improvement Society, and by the enterprise and philanthropy of its citizens. But no stranger who walks beneath the venerable elms on its broad park-like streets, or looks upon its comfortable and stately homes, but feels that he is on historic ground, - and he is right, for there is scarcely a town of its size, even in New England, that can compare with it in memories of more than local interest. This is the home of the Wolcotts and Beechers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
