CHAPTER XIX BROWN COUNTY IN THE CIVIL WAR The year 1860 and the one following--the first year of the great war--were spoken of at the time and afterwards as "the golden years." Industries along all lines were booming; large crops of wheat (both spring and winter) oats, barley, corn and peas were harvested in abundance and excellent profits realized. Brown county shared largely in the fat of the land and throughout her borders was peace and plenty. The grain elevator built by I. G. Beaumont and A. Pelton was finished at Green Bay, Hathaway and Penn, lessees, with an aggregate storage capacity of forty thousand bushels, and was found absolutely inadequate from the first to meet the required demand. The grain trade in 1860 promised to be larger than ever before. In preparation for the heavy shipments from the Green Bay port the New York Central placed two new screw steamers, Rocket and Comet on the Buffalo line, and these with the steamer Michigan made the tri-weekly trip with regularity. On the river the most important addition in transportation facilities was the Elwood belonging to D. M. Loy, De Pere, which carried ten thousand bushels of wheat at a speed of six miles an hour. The greatest crops of wheat ever raised in Wisconsin were during the years of 1861 and 1863, when the yield was respectively twenty to twenty-five million, and twenty-five to thirty million bushels. The price per bushel ranged from $1.75 to $2.00. On July 28, 1860, Portage City called a meeting to consider running a steamboat from Portage to Green Bay.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Brown County Wisconsin, Vol. 1: Past and Present Notwithstanding this ruthless hacking away from the parent stem, Brown county continues to be regarded as the most important in Wisconsin. In point of history the rest of the state is obliged to stand as a blank num ber up to 1840, while Brown county furnishes interesting material by the volume for every United States history that finds its way to the public library shelves. It is a wealthy county, the assessed valuation in the government census of 1910 placing it twelfth in the long line of its larger sister counties. In population to the square mile Brown stands fifth in the state, the counties averaging higher being Kenosha, Milwaukee, Racine and Winnebago. The total farm acreage is on which farms are located. Of these are owned and operated by the farmer himself, 2-46 are under lease, and 20 are owned by farmers who employ a manager to look after the property.
