We give the following Testimouials. received from parties 
who have ordered “Cliester Wliite Pigs” from us; H. O. 
Brown, a well-known manul'acturtr, ot Castleton, Rutland 
Co., Vermont, says; “The boar pig you sent me, is tlie liand- 
somest I ever saw. Ho took tlie I’irst Premium at our Agri¬ 
cultural Fair ! People came for miles to see him, lie has 
over fifty Sows engaged at .$2.00 eacli. I don't believe tliere 
is anotlier as good a hog in tlie New England States. I sold 
one of llie pigs from the Sow 1 got of yon, five weeks and 
two days old, for $50, to a gentleman in New York.” 
Dorsey Scott, of Lamoille, Bureau Co., Ills., writes: “The 
Sow I got of you measures IS inches across the shoulders 
(not fat). I was oll'ered $130 for lier, she liad 10 pigs, sold all 
at $10 to $12 apiece, four weeks old. Everyliody says they 
are the best pigs that liavc ever been iwised in this part of 
the State.” 
L. L. Smith, of Brooklyn, Powcsliiek Co., Iowa, writes: 
“ Tlie pigs I got of you last spring, took the First Premium 
at tlie Scott Co. Fair. The Boar 1 got of you some two years 
ago. weiglis 1,400 lbs,, and is still growing. I bred one Cliester 
White that weiglied 1,250 lbs. at 22 montlis old.” 
Lewis Maxwell, of Atlanta, Logan Co., Ills., writes; “The 
pair of pigs you sent me :u’e liard to beat, tlie Boar has had 
GO Sows, and will weigli 400 Ihs.” 
John .Murphy, of Buckeye, Garrad Co., Ky., writes : “The 
pigs you sent me are tlie best pair I ever saw, and Hog-rais- 
lug lias been my business for twenty years.” 
“ Tile pigs arrived safe, and meet my fullest expectations,” 
writes F. "A, Bliss, Reliohoth,. Mass. 
E. E. T. & J. H. Hazen, of Hollowayvillc, Bureau Co., Ills., 
write: “ We have now liad our pigs six weeks, and they 
liave doubled tlieir size in every way, leiigtli, breadth, and 
lieiglit. They are the finest pigs, and the most rapid grow¬ 
ers we ever saw. Tliey are perfect beauties. There can be 
no better feeders, everyiliiug tliey eat appears to be imme¬ 
diately converted into muscle and fat.” 
D. B. Waterman, of Aurora, Kane Co., Ills., writes: “I 
liave just returned from our State Fair at Cliicago, where I 
saw all tlie different lierds of Cliosters, from Illinois, Iowa, 
and Michigan, and know I am justified in pronouncing 
unqualifiedly, the pigs you sent me, much superior in every 
point of view, to any I saw at the above Fair. My pigs are 
now i'A and 5 montlis old. The Boar will weigli 250, and the 
Sow 200 lbs.” 
John C. P;ilmer, of Helena, Arkansas, writes: “My pigs 
gained 33 pounds apiece in 31 days, I'rom 5 to 9 weeks old. 
I don't think any other breed can beat this."
