any mules to be found in the United States
those few had been imported from the West

When Washington returned to private life
at Mount Vernon he became convinced that
mules would be better adapted for agriculture
iu the Southern States, as they lived longer,
we're less liable to disease, required less food
and we're more economical than horses
On his views becoming known to the King
Of Spain he sent him jack and two ennies
The jack was sixteen hands high Of grey col
or, heavily made, and sluggish disposition
About the same time he received jack and
some nnies from Lafayette, which were pro-
cured on the Island of Malta These proved
more ferocious. and active By crossing the
breed, Washington availed hims II Of the
best qualities of the two and thus introduced
excellent mules, for farming labor in this
country. f.,....s
Such was their superiority, that at the sale
Of the Generals effects, one wagon team of
four mules sold for $500. At this day these
animals are extensively used IN the Southern
and Middle States.
