The largest hog raised for many years past was recently slaughtered at Elton Wood Manor, near Brays Cross, in Newport, says the Lon don Meat Trades louruab The animal was a Jersey Red boar, 2% years old, weighing alive 1609 pounds aud dressing 1336 pounds. This huge swine, which was the property of William Harris of West Smithfield, measured 9 feet from tip of its nose to ettd of its tail. It measured 2% feet across loin, 2% feet across the hams aud 6 feet in girth. This makes the hog 3 feet through. It is split at the shoulder, and to look into the carcass is like lookiug into the crevice of a cavern. The carcass spreads across the perspective of the stave like a Titanic statue of pork personified. It also looks like the body of the great hog-god embalmed aud reposing iu its gigantic majesty. From hip bone to toe it measures 2% feet, aud about the same from the crest of the shoulder blade to the bottom of the foot. The great fat jowls ex tend nearly two feet across. From between the ears to the tail is over 7 feet. The tail is the smallest thing iu the big proportions; it is a mere point in the air. The face is also small for the size of the animal. It is only 16 inches long. The hams are monsters in size, and the vast stretch of pork in the long waist is home just above the ground by four comparatively small feet. The usual porker is a mere pigmy by its side. The big gest hog heretofore grown weighed 1224 pounds, dead weight.
