Ting down on another one, who d take
a kick at it, and a third would join i'll,
and first thing you knew the yard would
be full of flying hoofs and the air OF
thuds like the banging Of muffied bass
drum. That's the sound one mules
hoofs makes against another mule s ribs
There's a surprising power OF resistance
in those ribs. It's good thing, too, for
if there weren't the rate Of mortality
here would be very high.
do the mules ever fight among
themselves just for the fun of it?' asked
the reporter.
Mot those Of the same variety. We
have number of varieties here, and we
keep each herded separately. I've seen
due1s between two mules, and they were
fierce and exciting, for these animals
have q sort Of bulldog grit, and they
won't give up while they can stand"
What IT, the best brand of mule?"
"A cross between a Spanish jack ana
Kentucky thoroughbred mare produces
q good mule. The jacks often come at a
high price, I've known So, 500 to be
paid for one. The mules we get here are
mostly from 4 to Z years old, between
which ages they are the most easily
marketable. North America breeds tho
best mules in the world. France exports
many, but they are fat and lazy and
cannot be reused to hard labor by any
amount Of coaxing or abuse. The South
American breed are small, and while
they have the spirit to work they haven't

where if you had tried to persuade any

either lie down and try to die or else at

| As Mr.. Bishop led the way into an
other division, solid built horse with
several brands ON his sides walked across
the yard, followed by pack of mules.
When he stopped all the mules stopped
and gathered around him in admiring
contemplation. This horse was Rarus,
one of Buffalo Bills animals, quiet and

mules have this same respectful admira

ably, as a superior being. Before Rarus
time Mr.. Bishop had spotted horse
