VINO BEATS Mr. JEFFERSON PACkApp
of Waterford. killed pig the sth instant,
eight months Old which weighed when dress
ed, $50 pounds. The pig was of the Suffolk
breed, three-tourths blood. Either the breed
of Mr. Packard's pig is vastly superior to 9TH
err breeds, or Mr. Packard is vastly better
skilled in piling fat upon swine than some
other people. We suspect both suggestions
contain truth. The ''anteccdent" in this
case. as in the case of Gen. Pierce. is right
Mr. Packard's pig is the III. {. Davidson breed
