SHEEP AND WOOL 



a fine quality of lamb is already in demand. It should 

 be realized that the fine-wooled type of sheep no longer 

 has a place here, because the chief demand is for a fine 

 quality of lamb and mutton. Several of the so-called 

 Down breeds are noted for their early lambs and their 

 wool is of fair quality and quantity. 



By buying up and fencing some of the rougher areas 

 of Litchfield County and stocking the same with a good 

 grade of mutton sheep, a large business could be devel- 

 oped with such cities as New Haven, Bridgeport and 

 Waterbury, with a prospect of good returns on the in- 

 vestment.
