MADISON PORKERS
TAKING FIRST PRIZE

HI. F. Pieratt, residing east of the
city, who furnished some of the spe-
cial features in the exhibition of live
stock, especially hogs, at the Berea
fair, has removed his stock home, and
is preparing to go to Lexington,
where the porkers will try for the
ribbons.
Mr.. Pieratt stated some time ago
that he would try for some of the
prizes at the Berea fair, he believing
he was the possessor of a number of
hogs that were worth WHILE" accord
ing to his way of putting it. One boar
that carried off first prize at the state
fair twice at Louisville was entered,
with the result that it won first hon
ors again. This hog has also won two
first prizes at the Lexington fair, and
the one at Berea, making five strai ght
first prizes, record not believed to
have been excelled by any one animal
of this kind in the state. This is not
the extent of prizes won by the well
known Madison county breeder, for he
took first prize also on a SOW and
first and second on gifts under months
old. He will take the whole exhibi-
ito nto the Bluegrass fair and Their
they will be shown at the fair at
Louisville, and it is very probable
that htere will be more laurels added.
