Whitelock, Newbury, ] judge of the pig classes. “There was ( a consistency of type which was not p to be found in the Wairarapa a few i years ago. It makes the judging of 1 these classes increasingly difficult c when almost every exhibit is a good c one. In the Berkshire section com- S petition was good. The champion c aged boar and boar under Bmos were ( outstanding specimens of the breed. J The champion Large White boar and t the champion Tamworth boar also de- £ serve particular mention. They were / well brought out and wqrb two ex- I cellent animals. It was disappointing ti to find only one entry in the Large s. Black section.” 2
