all sizes from the small finland
juvenile edition to the biggest
aud best l6-hand mule.
The railroad mule is an extra
good one, ranging from 15H to
l6H and weighing 1900 pounds
and upward. He is one of the
heaviest and best kind made and
commands a good price. The
railroad mule is used in grading
where the heaviest of heavy work
is required. The levee mule is
much the same as the railroader,
though generally a little better
average quality is required of the
levee mule.
Farm mules include nearly all
classes and the necessary weight,
size and price of the farm mule
depends altogether on the whim
of the purchaser. Generally a
good, plain mule of almost any
size is classified as a farm mule.
The average, however, is from
IS to 10 hands high.
The lumber mule must be a
big one, but the lumbermen will
take them even if slightly bic m
ished. They want them not for
looks, but simply for service.
They must be big and heavy, and
capable of heavy work. Most of
the lumber mu'es are taken to
Arkansas, Texas, Indian Terri
tory and Louisiana. The latter
state is the largest purchaser of
this grade of mules. OF all the
different classes mentioned the
cotton mule ranks first in the
number sold.-Ex.

Facts About Barnyard

ing out the Importance of the use
of manure in the economical
management of the farm so vivid
ly as to cause one to be astonish.

cultural interest of this country
through the lack of appreciation
on the part of the farmer, or
through neglect or Indifference
to one of the most fundamental
principles in farm management
that of the renewal of soil fer
tility.
WHAT MANURE IS WORTH.
Experiments show that the
fertilizing value of the manure of
our domestic animals for one
year is as follows; for the horse
$27, for the COW $40, for the hog
$27 and for the sheep So. Com
putting the total value of the fer
tilizer ingredients according to
number of animals reported in
the live stock census of 1900, we
have for the enormous aggregate
in round numbers, S2,774, OOO, 900
not an Insignificant figure by any
means. The result although APP
proximate, is correct in repre-
senting the commercial value of
the fertilizingelements, nitrogen,
phosphoric acid aud potash as
found in the animal excreta.
OF course it is impossible for
the farmer in general to go to the
expense and trouble OF shedding
his barnyard to guard against

ly, be an improvement if applica.

most probably employed if all

boys on such days, and this is
certainly worthy of ones atten-

Capitalists Plan to Produc.
Paper from COrnStalks.

Washington, D.. G. Jan. 3.-The
Agricultural Department is in.
terested in the plans of capitalists
to manufacture high-grade papc,
from cornstalks. The farmers
OF Indiana and Illinois. it is an
rounced. are to be the first t,
profit by the new process. Re
ports to the department show
that experiments have been car
ried'on at Kankakee, Ill.,, for som,
time, and information was re-
ceived recently to the effect thai
by the time this years crop o,
stolds is ripe the men using tt
process will be ready to begin
the manufacture OF paper on a
large scale,
SAMPLES of. paper made from
the stalks of corn have been re-
ceived at the department. Three
different grades are exhibited
One is made from the shell of the
stalk, another from the pith and
a third from the husk. From th,
pith is turned out 4 fin grade of
oil paper-almost, if not. quite,
equal to linen paper, experts at
the department say.
The department is Informed
that the great problem has been
to make it an inducement to farm.
ers TO sell their cornstalks to the
manufacturers instead of feeding
them to live stock. To overcome
this obstacle, it is announced, a
machine has been invented and
is building which will take the
stalk with the ear still on it, husk
the ear, remove the husk from
the silk 0and then remove the
shell from the pitb. With a ma

In time, it is predicted at the
department., there will be ma:
chinery which will make use of
every part of the cornstalk and
the ear. Instead of turning the
husked corn back to the farmer
or putting it on the market the
buyers will grind it into various
kinds of food.

The Market Mule of Today.

Mules, in a general way, are d.
vlded into seven or eight classes,
as to their age, height, bone and
weight. The principal divisions
are sugar mules, cotton, mine,
railroad, farm, levee and car
mules. This latter class, or car
mules, has almost passed out OF
existence as a marketab BILE animal
on account of the. inroads made
in street car transportation meth
Ms by steam and electricity.
&Sugar mules range at two to
1--we years of age, from 10 to 16H
hands high, have medium bone
and weight 1850 to 1,4OO pounds.
. They are used for all grades of
heavy work on the sugar planta-
tons of the South. Planters gen.
orally prefer them unbroken.
Nearly all the mules of this class
are taken 20 Louisiana.
Cotton mules are used in every
state in the South. They range
from IA to 15H hands IN height,
have light to medium bone and
nice smooth hair. They must
weigh 900 to 1000 pounds. Kan
sas City sells more cotton mules
than any other grade, and it is
roughly estimated that this class
constitutes Is per cent of the to-
tai number handled. There are
more cotton mules raised within
a radius of 200 miles of Kansas
City than in and similar area in
the whole world.
Mine mules are used in the
coal mines all over the country,
but the most of those sold in
Kansas City go to the Pennsyl-
vania mines. OF late years a
great many have been sold to go
to Colorado, New Mexico and
Wyoming. Mine mules must
have plenty OF weight, have heavy
bone and body and be chunky

of drought or moisture
and heat, or for the
erection of lean-to in connection
with his stable and the couse-
quent attention involved, but it
is possible and highly practicable
for every farmer to attach such
Importance to this valuable farm
product (for such it is), as to
utilize it in the most practical
manner possible in sustaining the
fertility of his farm and in in
breasing the mechanical and
physical condition of his prop
erty.
MANURE MAY BE PROFITS OF FEED
Some of the more important
points of the summary are given
below.
1. Barnyard manure repre-
sents fertility drawn from the
soil, which must be returned if
productiveness is to be maintain
ed.
2. The value of manure OBJ
tanned in cattle feeding often rep
resents largely the profits of
feeding.
3. Manure contains the fertil-
izing elements of the soil, renders
the already present element more
available, improves mechanical
condition. makes it warmer, and
enables il to retain more moisture
or draw it up from below.
4. The urine is the most val,
liable part of the excreta, con.
tanning much nitrogenand potash
in easily available forms. The
nitrogen easily escapes into the
air unless the manure is mixed
with the solid excrement or
straw.
ORDER OF MANURAL VALUE.
S. Poultry manure ranks
highest in fertilizing value. while
sheep, pig, horse and COW ma
nure follow in respective order.
6. In a given class of animals
the value of their manure Is de-
TRIMMED more largely by their
food than by any other factor.
Z. Deterioration of manure re-
suits from fermentation or by
teaching or weathering.
8. When possible it is best to
apply manure in the fresh state,
especially for improvement of
the mechanical conditions Of
heavy soils. Well-rotted manur.
is best for improving light sandy
soils.
g. Fresh manurehasa forcing
effect, and it is therefore better
suited to the growth ofgrass and
forage plants TO cereals.
10. Direct application offresh
manure to root crops often
proves injurious.
II. Manuresshould be spread
on the land unifor mly and not
left in heaps. And it might be
added that eveuness of of appli-
cation is best obtained by use of
the manure spreader. Unless
the manure is applied evenly, the
soil is fortified only in spots and
the best results cannot be expec-
ted.
II. Mixing manures often
conduces to rapid fermentation
and the consequent loss of nitro
gen by evaporation.
