The supply from the range country is

fairly liberal supply for three weeks

complained of, but it is stringing the

A NEW KANSAS FACTOR

new citizen of Kansas who has
never received proper credit and who
ought TO be eulogIzed by Coburn is the
we'll known and often abused crea-
ture, the mule. At time when
wheat has tobogganed and other farm
products have felt the lowering effect
If a big crop, the Kansas mule has
carved for himself name and a price
which make him a credi table repre-
sentative of the state. The mule

sans. He may scratch some, but
nearly everybody did this year. The
be pulled or a strong and sturdy ami
nal that can march and fight is need
ed, the kansas mule is in demand
from Colorado to Cuba
The Kansas horse, the beef steer
and his sister, and the helpful hen
have been written about and had
their names go laundering down the
mule, stout and ugly, worth more
money for his weight than any other
animal, without the testimonials to
his greatness which are his due. In
The past the mule has been considered
only fit for cotton and for street cars.
But recent changes in military meth
eds have brought him to the front as
a necessary fighting force and his
worth is being appreciated more and
more as his price advances and his
merits are known. The mule is a
coming factor in Kansas civilization
and is worthy of the encomium of the
economist and the post.-Hutchinson
