Trucking Pigs at Teviotville.
How great has been the advance of the pig raising industry in Queensland in the last ten years can only be fully realised by the traveller who frequently journeys along the railways in the South-eastern division of the colony. There may be seen, where one pig was seen trucked a decade ago, a hundred.now being loaded for despatch to one or other of the large bacon-curing factories. The illustration of Teviotville station on this page shows a string of eighty German waggons, each laden with pigs, waiting their turn to discharge their living loads into the trucks. The total number of pigs in the eighty waggons was 250, all ‘bound for Messrs. J. E. Hut ton and Co.’s Zillmere factory, there to be turned into hams, bacon, sausages, and other “hog products.”
