Lincolnton Home Journal: For
some time past we have been pub¬
lishing Items about big hogs and
occasionally told of what we con¬
sidered » “hog as was a hug.”
Now, however, we have rtqiched
the limit. Unless you have l>ogs
that are big as cows it is wo use to
say anything about the size a’nd
the weight of the animals, you
butcher. A three and four hun
hroti pounder is a pig henceforth,
because the other day Mr. W. ('.
Powell, of Pansy, killed a hog that
weighed Asaetl.v i>K6 pounds. This
is the largest porker we remember
having heard of in Lincoln county
for several seasons past and it
must have been , a sight. The
hams weighed 5 C pount.8 each. It
turned out a half bushel ofchittei- j
lings and from it wns inode BO gal
Ions of bird and 100 pounds of sau- j
sage. Mr. Powell takes the palm
and holds the record.
