Number Of Animals Reaches 100000
Valuation of $23, 100000.

Information in regard to the Mis-
souri, mule as furnished by DIR. II. b.
Munford, acting dean of the Missouri
Agricultural College, shows Missouri
to possess nine per cent of the mules
In the United States, 10000 In num-
Der and valued at S23,000,000.
Missouri has in three years leaped
to the position of second mule state in
America, crowding Texas closely for
first honor.
"There is another fact which wish
to state about the Missouri mule"
said DR.. Mumford. "It is the best
mule in the world. In saying this, l
take into consideration size, weight,
strength and ability. All the essen
tials are found in the Missouri pro-
duct. There are no other mules in the
entire world so desirable from all
points of view."
"Mule breeding in Missouri is on the
increase, aud will continue. The mule
is good investment. A good team
should bring as high as 5000. Mules
do not vary in value SO widely as hor'
ses. A great advantage in breeding
mules is that they require such little
care, and comparatively small feed
ing. A mule can get along on asmallel
amount OF feed than horse, and II
does not seem to make much difference
what the feed is.
"The estimate received this week
putting the number of mules in Mis-
souri, at 100000 and their value a.
s23, 900, 900, is, of course, encouraging
but / predict a still greater increas'
within the next few years."
