Content: If the average person got sick, they suffered greatly or died. Most Americans grew their own food, and also hunted and fished. Since the quality of water was poor, many people drank beer, cider and whiskey. Medical services were poor. Going to see a physician, who was usually also the local vet, was a last resort, and often made things worse. The average person's life was tied to the seasons.
