About This Book

A concise account traces the development of cattle raising and feeding across Illinois, examining landforms, water supplies, and settlement patterns that shaped pasture and stock health. It follows the transition from smallholder dairy cows to market-oriented beef feeding, describes feeding practices such as silos and links to the Chicago market, and profiles influential drovers and cattlemen. The narrative also treats the impact of Texas range cattle, the growth of purebred breeding, outbreaks of cattle disease, and the broader feed industry and statistical trends that influenced production and marketing.
