Eagle Archives, May 20, 1948: Sheep coming back to Berkshires

There are about 1000 sheep grazing in the Berkshire Hills this spring and the sheep industry is on its way back again. Sheep raisers agree it will never regain the importance it had in this area a century ago, but the old farm industry which dates back from Biblical times is by no means finished in the Berkshires. The industry is growing here. It’s growing because it is profitable; lamb’s wool and meat, that is, are both bringing a “price.” The little lamb that Mary led was strictly a nonprofit proposition compared to the money-making thousand feeding, economically enough, off the neighboring hill sides.
