Bow pdules Game into Fashion.

Few of the farmers of this ceun-
trv are aware what depth of graf
iSude they owe George Washington
fer the Introduction OF mules into
general use for farm purposes.
Previous to 1888 there were very
few. and those of such an inferior
order as to prejudice farmers against
them, as unfit to compete with
: horses in work upon the road or
farm. Consequently there were no
good jacks, and no disposition to in
crease the stock; but Washington
became convinced that the intreduc-
ton of mules generally among South
ern planters would prove to them
great blessing, as they are less liable
to disease, and longer lived and
work upon shorter feed, and are
much less liable to be injured than
horses, by careless servants.
As soon as it became known abroad
that the llustrious Washington de-
sired to stock his Mount Vernon es-
tate with mules, the King of Spain
sent him two jacks and two iennies
from the island Of Malta.
The first was of gray color, six
teen hands high, heavily made, and
of sluggish nature He was named
the Royal Gift. The other was
called the Knight of Malta; he was
about as high, but lighter made,
black color, and 1.-the and fiery even
to ferocity.
The two different sets of animals
gave him the most favorable oppor-
tunity Of making improvements by
cross breeding, the result Of which
was a favorite jack which he called
Compound, because he part0ok Of
the best points in both of the origi-
nal jacks. The General bred his
blooded mares to these jacks, even
taking those from his family coach
for that purpose, and produced such
superb mules that the country was
all agog to breed some of the same
sort, and they soon became quite
common. This was the origin of i'm
proved mules in the United States;
though over seventy years since,
there is no doubt there are now some
Of the third and fourth generation
of the Knight Of Malta and Royal
Gift to be found in Virginia, and the
great benefits arising from their in
PRODUCTION to the country are to be
seen upon almost every cultivated
acre in the Southern States. Not
withstanding the enormous increase
of late years, arising from a sys
tematic course of breeding in the
Northern States for the Southern
market, mules were never more val
liable than at present or more ready
of sale at high prices.
We have numerous reports of
mules attaining the age of forty,
fifty or sixty years, and Col. Middle
ton, of South Carolina, stated some
years ago that he had one at work
on his plantation eighty years old;
and we have seen an account Of
mule in Ireland, certified to have
been at work since 1707, making him
over $50 years old. This is, Of course,
very uncommon age, but we are
satisfied that, with proper usage,
mules would commonly attain to
about forty years, being serviceable
TO the last, and this should be count
ed as one of their elements of val
ue.-Facts for Farmers.

THE ARMY WoRM.-In Niagara
county, Western New York, the army
worm is committing dreadful ravages
among the orchards. In places. the
whole population turns out to do bat
tie to save their fruit and gardens.
They attack a tree in such numbers
as to cover the leaves and fruit,
which they utterly destroy. If the
trunk of tree is covered with tarred
paper they cannot ascend it, and
they start for another orchard. II
is doubtful whether this is the real
army worm of the South, but it is
probably the caterpillar of New Eng
land. If-it is the army worm its
progress can be stopped by plowing
furrows and then digging bitches
eight inches deep with straight sides.
Into this they will crawl, and only
with great difficulty can they get out.
Then strew straw over them, set it
on fire, and their day is done.
