one day last week that he had been Of
fered $50 for. The circumstances
under which these mules died were pc.
culiar. The first of the two mules to
die was the one from what he thought
was his best brood mare. After the colt
was foaled it stood up and sucked and
was from all appearances in good condi.
ton. But in short time after it sucked
it was dead. Mr.. Thomas asked some
of his neighDors what he should do, and
they advised him to let the remaining
mule suck both mares. Mr.. Thomas
did SO, but to his utter establishment the
other mule lived but an hour or two
after having sucked this mare.
