The Leviathans.
THE SWIM e.

First and foremost in the exhibit of
swine were the Berkshires owned by
Bradley Newell of Rowe, Mass, for
merly of Jacksonville, who won fame
a few years ago as healer, and who
is now the leading breeder of Berk-
shires in New England, with the pos
sible exception of the Hood Farm.
Mr.. Newell laid the foundation of his
breed by purchases from the Hood
farm. Mr.. Newell raises from 300 to
400 swine a year, and during the past
season has made shipments into 10
states and Canada. Twenty-seven
animals were included in his display
here. His 2-year-old boar, Benjamin
Longfellow, weighs 500 pounds, is not
fat, but stands unusually high, and is
the longest boar in America. excelling
the Vanderbilt prize-winner by four
inches in length. He will eventually
make the biggest boar ever raised.
Mr.. Newells King Phillip. from i'm
ported stock, has never been beaten,
and his progeny have never been
beaten in competition. Mascot. year
ling boar. weighed 600 pounds. The
SOW Royal Beauty will score as near
100 points as any animal ever shown.
Before coming TO Brattleboro Mr..
Newell won all of the first and second
prizes on Berkshires offered at the
Vermont state fair and the fairs in
Cambridge, n. Y. and Greenfield. His
Lady Lee combines qualities of King
Lee. Worlds Fair winner in the open
sweepstakes for all breeds, and of Col
umbias Duke. never beaten, who
brought at auction $1,000. the largest
sum ever paid for a boar. Mr.. New
ellis Berkshires included a variety OF
different ages. His animals are
given a free range in pastures, and as
a result show a finish not to be- found
in animals confined to pens.
T. o. Taylor. Sanborten, n. H., con-
tributed a novelty in his Jersey Reds.
The w. F. Richardson company was
represented with Berkshire SOW with
litter, Chester White SOW with litter, a
Poland China boar, a fat Chester
White SOW and a fat Berkshire hog
thoroughbred. The Chester Whites
ownedby the Brattleboro Retreat are
referred to elsewhere. II. G. Clark
exhibited a good Berkshire sow and
pigs.

Evans Brothers of Townshend Added
Very Materially with Their II Pure
Bred English Settlers.
The extremes of quality were found
in the bench show. Evans Brothers Of
Townshend. proprietors of Maplehurst
kennels, added very materially to this
department with their IL pure bred
English settlers of the famous Law
crack and Llewellin families. Evans
Brothers have been winners in the
bench shows at Rutland, Burlington,
Providence and Danbury. Their stud
dog, Evans's Pride, combines excel
lencies both for field trials and bench
show. Their Albert's Bonnie is one Of
the purest bred Laveracks in Amer
lea. Their Maplehurst Chief, IS
months old, will be shown in compe-
tition for the first time at the big New
York bench show next winter. Their
Belle Of Mapls&9rst is generally rec
ognized as the third best Llewellin
bitch in America, and has defeated
many of the leading prize winners.
Their very promising puppies, Maple
hurst Eva and Maplehurst Mistress,
will enter the lists at New York later.
Miss Susan B. Wesselhoeft of Brook
line, Mass. exhibited a registered
Irish terrier puppy Of good quality,
and DR.. w. F. Wesselhoeft handsome
registered Cocker Spaniels. William
Howard, Rudyard Kipling's coachman,
was an exhibitor of good coach dogs,
and w. o. Cooley of Brattleboro of a
greyhound bitch. An immense Great
Dane, shown by Mrs. Fred Holbrook
in a tent, was a cynosure for many
eyes. Among other noteworthy dogs
were D. G. Bakers pointer, one year
old, from Guilford; David Clough's
Boston terriers and G. w. Pierce's
coon dog; Mrs. w. G. Matthews's Bos-
ton terrier bitch from Walpole, N. H.;
Charles H. Clark's English fox hound
and English setter; VIM. ]. Pentland's
Boston terrier bitch; A. H. Illness
Russian bear dog; A. w. Brighams
collies from Walpole, N. H.; Miss
Lillian Clark's black and tan toy
terrier from Westfield, Mass; George
Aldermans greyhound from South
Vernon; VIM. A. Halls daschund from
Bellows Falls.
The open pens and those in the new
pavilion were filled with heterogene-
Gus condemnation of dogs and ours,
some bordering on but hardly reach
ing the line of excellence, some of
mediocrity and others of positive bad
ness. If the bench show is continued
it would be a good plan to encourage
the display of thoroughbreds and to
discourage theexhibit of mixed breeds,
particularly when the exhibitors have
an eye single to the sale of their ami
mails.

The Driving Classes.

One of the prettlest sights of the
entire fair was seen on Thursday
morning, when the gentlemen's driv-
ing class was called. Fourteen own
ers responded, with some of the most
shapely, stylish and speedy animals
to be found anywhere. 1t was diff
cult for the judges to pick the winners,
but James Thayer of Manchester was
finally given the blue ribbon, and DR..
j. s. Button of Brattleboro the second
prize. There were only four entries
for matched pairs. The Connecticut
River Stock Farm, with a pair which
is described elsewhere, took first
money, and W. X. Ware of Chester
field second.

THE SHEEP.

More and better was the verdict of
all who examined the sheep depart
ment Practically all of the fine and
coarse wool breeds, as well as those
raised for mutton and for exhibition
purposes, were to be found. Every
pen in sheep row was filled, total Of
an even 200 animals being seen. ]. B.

Horned Dorsets, Merinos, Lincoln
shires and Cashmere. the latter hav-
ing very long and silky fleeces. B. B.

N. H., with Is Southdowns. Cottrell
Brothers of Hoosick Falls, N. Y, with
nine Southdowns and three Shrop-
shires, square, blocky, low-down, typi-
cal specimens. The veteran w. w.
Ball of Winchester had a three-year-
old grade Shropshire buck weighing
800 pounds, another buck and two
good eossets. d. S. Pratt of Brattle-
boro entered his flock of thoroughbred
Southdowns for exhibition only, and
an exceptionally good lot of grade
Southdowns were exhibited by ]. G.
Stafford of Brattleboro. The men who
have made the rounds of the big fairs
stated that no exhibition of sheep has
been seen in New England this year
equal to the one here.

The srattleboro Retreat.

The Valley Fair is fortunate in being
able to depend each year upon such a
large and meritorious display in sew
eral departments as the Brattleboro
Retreat is always ready to furnish.
This year the Retreat added to the
various departments 80 thoroughbred
Holstein cattle, pens of English Berk-
shire and imported Ohio Chester
swine, three pairs of Hereford steers
and calves, pens of Angora goats. Mr..
Roel, the Retreat gardener, invariably
arranges a display which is a leading
feature in Agricultural hall. Mr..
Pierce, the Retreat farmer, always
brings from the Retreat menagerie in
novations in the bench show, and this
year he selected Belgians hares, An
CORA rabbits, Southern possums and
coyotes or prairie wolves, the latter
being bought by him in Nebraska.

Fourteen Normandy cattle, nearly all
imported from France last season, rep
resented the Forest Park Farm of
Brandon. The 3-year-old bull, Chuck,
was bred by Chester w. Chaplin of
Chicopee, Mass, but the 2-year-old
bull, Kanaris, was imported. The
Normandy cattle were but little known
in Brattleboro a few years ago but
have attracted great attention through
the exhibits of the Forest Park Farm
at several fairs. It is claimed that they
are excellent for dairy, of hardy con-
stitutions, docile dispositions, and COM
bine the milk and beef qualities essen
tial to a farmers COW. They are of
large size, weighing from 1000 to 1000
pounds at maturity. The Forest Park
Farm also breeds standard Ayrshirese.
and a yearling bull, Drew's Best, and
three calves of this variety were
shown.
