Yorkshire .. Berkshire, Landtbr ukar e som önska att förbättra sina Svin-Racer ha tillfälle under denna vecka att köpa några utmärkt vackra grisar (Fargaltar och Suggor), införskrifna direkt från England. Denna mycket berömda Svin-Race har vunnit under fem års tid icke mindre än 536 premier c:a 50.000 Rdr Rmt. Grisarne kunna beses alla dagar under Landtbruksmötet i Göteborg, då anmälan göres hos James Glemitson, Göteborg. Extract from the Times. The judges at Salisbury June 1:st had a very difficult task in awarding the prizes to the finest class of Pigs ever shown. The first prize sow Lady Byron of the large Yorkshire Breed is a model of immense proportions, a rounded rectangular form or mass of flesh with no snout to speak of, fine ears, nice hair and no more bone than an acrobat, yet her weight is tremendous at a year ten months old and she is blind with fat, they are quick feeders and prolific breeders. The Berkshires looked very poor in comparison with the gigantic Yorkshires, from which beautiful animals are continually being produced far excceding the natural pig size.
