our Pigs have always taken the highest premium where 
ever exhibited. They have all the good qualities desirable 
in a Hog: they are quic^t, kept easily, have a good square 
form, deep and wide chest, plenty ol play for the Lungs 
very heavy haras and shoulders, broad in the back, short 
head and legs, and without e.xceptlon always white; they 
readily fatten while young, or at any age, and will grow to 
we!<'U from 500 to 800 lbs., at 1 1 or 16 mouths old. They will 
make more pork in .t given length of time with a given 
quantity of food, than any other breed of Hogs, Weua^e 
had them to weigh 1,'MO lbs. at 21 months old.
