We should see an honest emulation among the married women, which of them could bring the fattest child to the market.

For instance, the addition of some thousand carcasses in our exportation of barreled beef, the propagation of swine's flesh, and improvement in the art of making good bacon,

This I freely own, and 'twas indeed one principal design in offering it to the world.
