Farmers, Raise Mules.

Here are some of the very good
reasons given by a well known
writer why farmers should raise
more mules;
They can be raised cheaper than
any other stock.
They will go on the market
much younger than any horse.
They can be handled at two
years old, and if. properly managed
will do as much work as a four
year-old horse and be the better
for it.
They are less subject to disease
than any other stock and not liable
to get blemished by wire or other.
wise. l have raised mules a num-
of years and never had one blem-
ished, but have had fine horses
nearly ruined.
They avoid danger and do not
get into holes or dangerous places.
If they run away they seldom hurt
themselves or anything else much.
The writer nearly always has a
good bunch of mules, and has not
been kicked but twice in twenty
years, and both times 10y horse.
They can stand heat much better
than horses. If you do not think
so try a span on yOnr binder SONS
hot, sultry day by the side Of your
horses.
They can stand more abuse and
hardship than the horse, but ap-
preciate good treatmen more than
any other animal living, aud live
to greater age than horses.
There is pro fit in mule raising
because of greater growth, being
marketable at three years old. A
horse has to be ave years old, thus
two years feed is saved. / have
sold a number Of two,year-Old
mules Tor $3.50 each.

Young Man!

The Palmyra Herald of last week
had the followins article, which
5 hould be read by every boy (sOme
men aud women) in this and ev-
cry other community:
About two weeks ago a gentle
man of this city, having large
business interests, needed a good,
reliable man for whom he had a
good position with opportunities
of promotion. A certain young
man of this city attracted his fa-
vorable notice, but before Offering
him the position he made inquir-
les concerning him.
The young man was highly rec
commended as sober and industri-
Gus. but it was found that he had
run a bill with a grocer in this
city and when asked for payment
not only had not paid but now
never went near the man he owed,
buying his groceries aud spending
his money with other merchants.
That settled it. He lost the job.
he does not know h Ow close he
he came to getting a paying posi-
lion. Aud probably there are
many such cases as this. The dis
honest man who after securing
credit never attempts to pay his
debts may imagine that he is just
that much ahead. but is he! In the
first place he must have a mighty
mean opinion OF himself. And then
he gets a reputation that is a pow
erfully poor business recommended
tiOn. Many a good man gets in
debt and tiuds il hard or impOssi.
BILE to pay out. But he does not
repudiate the debt nor does he
dodge bis creditor. When he has
money he spends It with the man
who accommodated him aud tells
him that he had not forgotten the
old debt and win pay if he Is ever
able. No merchant ever harbOrl

"THAT THING"
And Tom Bgckner Gets a
Blow In the Face.

The following item is taken from
the Kansas City journal. Tom
Buckner, referred to, was formerly
Prosecuting Attorney Of Audrain
cou nty:
John Matth ews and Thomas B.
Buekner came to blows yesterday
in Judge Teasdale's court room
over a damage suit against the
Metropolitan Street Railway Com
pany. Matthews is a claim agent
for the Metropolitan and Buckner
was prosecuting the suit for H. NJ.
Harrison. A question was raised
over deposition just before the
court was adjourned for lunch.
Where is the deposition?" the
court asked Buckner.
That thing over there" replied
Buckner, as he pointed a finger
across the table at Matthews, has
it and won't give it up."
When court had adjo urned for
lunch Matthews followed Buckner
across the room, where he had
gone forihis coat and hat.
Twill you take back that name
you called me-" he asksd Buckner.
II will not, was the reply, and
in an instant the lawyer had gone
down before a terrific blow in the
face from Matthews. The two
men glared at each other. Buckuer
arose and attacked Matthews, but
a deputy sheriff separated the m.
They returned in the afternoon
and sat at the same tables, but
handled each other with gloves" )"
