BREEDING AND
USING THE MULE

The mule is worth more than any
animal living as a class used for do
mestic purposes and will bring more
to the square inch and is considered
the safest property to own in the live
stock line, writes J. L. Jones to the
Breeders Gazette, Chicago. The fact
Is established that the mule as class
Is a more valuable animal than the
horse as a class, and as the progressive
farmer sees this (and all Americans are
the farm animal and motive power for
the dFudgery work. Now if the mule
can be bred cheaper, raised cheaper
and is worth more when raised and
matured than the horse, why should
any one be afraid to pursue this busi-
ness with a vim and never look back?
The seasons for horses are usually
higher than for jacks to mares, and if
a man has a blemished and decrepit
mare he sends her to the jack, but his
best mares he breeds to horse. If
the mule, with his poor, insignificant,
Ill shapen, cold blooded mother, brings
more than the horse, what could he do
If he had the chance to have for a
dam some of those fine mares that are
stinted to horses whose service fee is
from $10O up to $500 and often more?
The mule costs less in service fee, is
raised cheaper. eats less and brings
more money when matured than the
horse. The mule lasts longer and can
do more work on less feed than the
horse.
Mr.. Hambleton, Maryland authori
ty, gives this as his experience as to
the cost Of raising mules: From Oct
I to April 80, when the mule goes to
grass, would be about IA barrels Of
corn (6A bushels) at S. per barrel (es-
timated for an eastern state), or $3.75
for the first year; second year, add
one-third, say So; third year, another
third, $6.62, all equal to S14-37, cost for
corn at three years old" This esti-
mate does not take into consideration
that the mule may be put to work at
two years old and earn his feed. Add
to this for hay and roughage similar
amount, and you have the cost at $50,
not including grass.
1t is said that q mule weighing TOO
pounds at furnace carried daily 15
tons of ore, ~ tons Of shells and slack.
10 tons Stag and sand and 8 tons of
siftings and dirt from the ore kilns.
The ore and sand were hauled up an
elevation Of 80 feet and a distance of

1902 the number of broken legs was

that the extreme fragility of the ami

absence of the requisite mineral ele-

to be ample medical authority for as

in case of bone fracture, will recover
more rapidly than when that article
of luxury is eaten in moderation. In
some hospitals patients that are laid
up with compound fractures of legs or
arms receive in addition to their regu-
lar food allowance $50 grains of sugar,
the cost of which is soon covered by
the lesser period needed for the COM

Years ago when the state fair first

unpreparedness, as it were, especially
on cattle, and very few fine Texas

George H Hogan in Farm and Ranch.
4 few enterprising exhibitors from 9th
er states with cattle and hogs saved
the day, SO to speak, and opened the
eyes of our understanding and set US
to thinking along the lines of enlight-
anment. The state fair was a revela-
ton to many, the state press especial

gan to breed along the lines of prac-
teal common sense.
It is a maxim among those best in
termed on the subject that the sire is
much more than half the herd in all
1o-nesticated animals. Intelligent
breeders all recognize the absolute ne
cessity of an unbroken ''blood line" in
the sire, but thousands of our farmers,
who have not taken time to get their

plodding along and breeding their

This mule did this work for six years
and was still at it when last heard
from. Mules are little subject to dis
ease, as bots and collie. The greatest

any accident. Out of LOO mules ct

are very few. They are rarely defec

DRY, better judgment and ought to have

Mules are truer pullers than the horse
and quicker travellers with a load
Their vision and hearing are more
acute. They are less liable to start
suddenly-a fault with the horse The
mule is more steady in his draft and
less liable to waste his strength; ;
hence more suitable for all agricul

for plowing among young crops, his
feet being smaller and following each

The facility of instructing him to obey
implicitly the voice of the driver OF the
plowman is astonishing. The bes,

without lines or driver other than the

kind, but l merely make the plea for

HEAVEN AND HELL.
Odd Theories as to the Location q
Paradise and Hades.

He'll and heaven beliefs had their
origin about the year $50 B. c., and
since that time there have been
thousands of attempts to locate
these places, the one Of future pun
ishment and the other of everlast-
ing happiness. The old med; aeval
idea of he'll is the one which gives
us to understand that the devil and
his imps have their furnaces and
their caldrons and other articles of
Internal utility constantly working
somewhere within the bowels of the
earth. On the other hand, we are
told and believe that heaven is an
abode of light, beauty and Joy To-
Gated far above the earth. One
writer believes that heaven will be
on a planet which will be prepared
for the saints in the last day, and
another believes that this earth,
burned over and purified by fire,
will be the final resting place of
those who escape the horrors of
perpetual punishment in. the hell
that has been prepared fSfor those
who love sin" DR.. Winston, the
friend of Sir Isaac Newton and the
first of the great race of "specula-
tive astronomers" believes that hell
is located on a comet.
But the most curious theory we
have ever investigated was that ad-
vancsd by DR.. Mortimer, author of
s'The Spirit of God as Fire" One
of the several substitutes of this re-
markable book was one which gave
the reader to understand that the
author believed that heaven is To-
Gated on the inner globe of the sun.
This substitute was "The Globe
Within the Sun Our Heaven" Ac-
cording to Mortimer's theory, our
sun is surrounded by an envelope OF
photosphere Of flame 100000 miles
itself. Taken all together, this idea
of the photosphere is vast non
luminous void. Farther on is the
great globe of the sun itself.
Taken all together, this idea of
the sun may be aptly compared to a
peach or plum. The envelope Of
flame occupies the place of the skin,
the "vast nonluminous void" the
place of the meat of the fruit and
the central globe (true sun) the
place of the seed. On this sun
globe, inside the great fiery envel-
ope, DR.. Mortimer believed heaven
to be situated. The photosphere or
envelope of fire he took to be hell
or the place of future punishment
for the wicked. The "nonluminous
void" according to Mortimer, is the
'sgreat gulf between" which is men,
toned quite frequently in the Scrip
lures.

FALL FLOWING,
Deep Flowing Brings Inert Soil to
the Surface.

the Surface.
There is often difference of opinion
as to how deep soil should be plowed
following to say on this subject in an
swer to an inquiry:
While the nct,.re of the soil to some
extent regulates the depth of plowing,
it may DC said that ON general princi
pies fail blowing shoald be done fairly
deep. II the case of sandy soils and
sandy loans we would hesitate before
blowing more than four or five inches
deep, for the reason that on such soils
il is better to keep them firm below
and as far as possible keep the vegeta-
bic matter anG maEuTial constituents
near the surface. There are certain
light soils in the corn belt. though the
area is small. that would be more pro-
ductive il they were never plowed
though CT course the preparation of
seed be-: necessitates plowing from
time to t;iae. II however, the disk or
some surface cutting implement could
be utilized to prepare the seed bed it
would, in our opinion. increase produc-
ton.
However, on average corn belt land
the proposition is entirely different be-
cause there is not much danger Of fer
tility teaching away, while there seems
to be considerable advantage in hav-
ing good depth of friable soil We
have In mind a field that was plowed
to depth Of about eight inches in the
fall of 1905 and put to corn this year
The soil was a rich black loan with a
somewhat stiff subsoil. The corn at
present writing on this field gives ev-
cry appearance Of reaching a yield of
eighty or ninety bushels per acre, while
the adjoining field, plowed somewhat
shallow, has a much less thrifty ap-
pearance, though the soil is identical.
In the case Of the deeply plowed soil
the fodder has been of a dark green
color until the husks began to turn,
and as result nearly all the ears that
formed were fully developed. In the
other field the fodder took ON some
what yellowish appearance when the
corn was In the milk stage and at pres
ent the ears, many Of them, have the
appearance Of being a little small. The
theory of deep plowing is that it brings
a certain amount Of inert soil to the
surface, where it is weathered, thus
bringing about the liberation of fertiI-
ity that would otherwise remain inert.
1t may require more work in the spring
to prepare seed bed on a deeply
plowed soil than where it IS plowed
shallow, because tt always pays to
make the seed bed firm. However, we
believe that in the case of the deep
plowfng the Increase In the crop where
corn is grown will much more than paw
for the labor
The only precaution that we should
advise would be that depth Of blowing
should be increased gradually. If a
soil has been plowed to. depth of
not more than four inches we should
not advise increasing the depth more
than one inch at O time, because if
more inert material than the extra inch
in brought to the surface liberation Of
fertility may be so slow the first year
as to interfere with maximum produc-
ton. By going an inch deeper each
time until the soil is stirred seven OF
eight inches deep one may reasonably
expect good results.

RIGHTS UNDER A PATENT.
Each of the Three Constitutes Sera.
rate Monopoly.

To make, to use and to sell ar.
the only ways in which an invention
is capable of commercial enjoyment.
The patentee can, if he wishes, sit
down and not only not use the in
vention himself, but prevent others
from making or using or selling the
patented thing. If any one else
makes, uses or sells the subject Of
the patent the courts will grant the
patentee an injunction against fu~
| ther infringement and a recovery of
the profits made.
Each Of these three rights-to
make, to use and to SELLS sep
arate monopoly and may, by proper
instruments, be granted or sold sep.
arately. For instance, patentee of
machine could grant to a manu-
facturer the exclusive right to make
the machines for him (of course un-
der proper restrictions as to price,
etc), and the manufacturer would
be an infringer if he used the ma
! chimes or sold them to others. The
patentee could then grant to job
Der the exclusive right to sell the
machines preserving proper compen-
sation to himself, such as percent
age of the profts), and the jobber
would be an infringer if he either
made or used the machine. The
exclusive right to use the machines
could then be granted to a given
consumer, who in turn would have
no right to make OF sell the ma
chimes.
The exclusive right to use an in
vention for each of several given
purposes can be separately sold. Fer
instance, patentee of process fcr
making watch dials not only sold
the exclusive right to make watch
dials by that process, but he also
sold to a separate company the e,;-,
elusive right to use the process il
making enameled signs under tho
same patent. The watch manufac-
turer would have been an infringe.
if he had made signs and, vice versa,
the sign manufacturer would have
been restrained from making watch
dials.
A process Of drying gunpowder
was found to be applicable to dry
ing breakfast foods, and the owners,
after getting all they had ever look
ed for from the patent from the
gunpowder rights, reaped a second
and unexpected harvest from the
sale of the rights for breakfast
foods. The rights under a patent
for machine can be divided in the
same way.-Edwin J. Prindle in
Engineering Magazine.

Cotton Seed.


That like produces like is a law of
plant life to be observed in all details.
From your best field of cotton select
the best portion and in this choice divi-
sion mark the most vigorous and pro-
ductive plants showing short joints
and fruit limbs near the bottom. The
entire plant should be an exceptional
fruit producer. Seed should be selected
from these marked cotton stalks, but
the top bolls and the bolls on the ends
of the limbs should not go into the lot
for seed; they tend to make the cotton
later. The bolls selected for seed
should be picked by special field hands,
sent in advance of the regular pickers.
This seed cotton must be stored in a
dry place and watched to avoid mix
ing.
Special care must be taken at the
gin that the gin and floor are free FROM
all other cotton seed before ginning.
Store this seed in a dry place.
Where greater length of staple is de-
sired select for seed such bolls only as
show the longest staple. By careful
selection most any desired qualities Or
characteristics can ultimately be Sc
cured, says a writer IN Farm and
Ranch.

HANDLING COLTS.
Establish Your Mastery While the
Animal 10 Young.

| Establish Your Mastery While the
Animal Is Young.
So much has been said about the
breaking of colts that it hardly seems
as if there is anything else to say, but
| the Importance of the subject is full
| justification for a repetition of what
| may have been said. What is horse
worth unless he has good manners
and is under full subsection? With
out these he should be put to such
use as will not require them in any
great measure, but surely he should
| not be used except by the best horse
men. Some men can handle almost
any horse, but there are others who
will have trouble with the best. Such
a man should be careful to get only
the kind that is well broken and has
good manners, and let the other fel-
low that thinks he can handle any of
them have the bad ones at what they
are worth, and we can nearly always
find some one who will take the
chances.
If you feel as if you cannot break
horse or colt do not try it, for he
will discover your fears very quickly.
If you have any reason to fear you
cannot master the colt, better get help
or sell him unbroken before taking
the chances of spelling him and thus
making him so much harder to con-
quer. The ideal way is to begin with
the little fellow while yet weak and
establish your mastery. Keep at it
until he is old enough to hitch, and
the breaking will be easy. Establish
the kind of fear that will keep him
from violating your commands or dis
regarding your authority, but not the
kind of fright that will cause him to
flee at sight Of you and make it neees-
sary to corner him in order to halter
him. l have seen men in charge of
bunch of colts who were so brutal to
the little fellows that a comfortable
box stall and plenty Of good feed
would not induce them to run the
gantlet'' of passing their keeper to get
in out of a violent winter storm. And
it was my fortune to have the same
colts to break when the time came
After two or three years of that kind
of treatment do you think they ever
forgot it? No. Fear was so thor
oughly imbedded in their natures that
they never forgot 1t. 1t might not be
out of place to state that that farm
had to incur the extra expense Of driv-
ing them from one to three years be-
fore they were safe to sell. and a num-
Der of them never were safe, which
was principally on account Of the hru-
tai treatment they had received the
first two years Of their existence.
While am always sOrry to see any
kind of animal abused. it is true I
have had a few colts to break that
had come to that point where it seem
ed that only a good sound whipping
would reduce them to subjection.
Kindness and coaXtng might have ac-
complished the work in time, but men
do not like to pay the trainer for coax
ing and petttng their colts into sub
mission when It seems like an endless
job Whether a horse Is biddable and
easily broken or shows a disposition to
be headstrong and mean. he must be
brought under subjectton by some
method before he can be considered
safe.-H. C. Peters Before Ohio Insti-
tute.
