Curers tell us that they require a long-sided pig of about six months old and weighing alive some 2001 t to 2201 b. The pig must be fine in bone, skin and hair, with us little offal as is possible, light in the fore-quarters and with w*ell-developed hams. The flanks must be thick, as this mdi- , cates a large proportion of lean to ' fat in the carcase, and the absence ; of those thin bellies which the public | taste objects to. The bacon pig should not be too deep in the carcaae as such a one is likely to be too gutty and to produce a thin belly.
