John R. Lewis to Take Herd of Hogs to Omaha.

John R. Lewis, famed as a breeder of Belted Hampshire hogs, and who recently annexed several prizes at the state fair at Indianapolis, returned from Springfield, HL, Thursday, where he had been making arrangements to enter his herd at the show at Omaha, Neb. He will ship his herd to Omaha next Wednesday. The show at Omaha is called the National Swine Show and is open to all breeders of the United States, and lasts from October 2nd to 7th. Some of the finest bred hogs in the country will be at this show, and the class of the Lewis herd may be determined at this show.
