FEEDING AND SELLING MULES.

Get the Best Results.

The southerner requires fat mules.
the fatter the better. Flesh catches
the planters eye. Sleek-coated ami
mails are also In demand In size. the
cotton mule ranges from the l4-hand
donkey to the 15.2-hand farm mule.
Mare mules are given the preference

this is not so. The wise feeder will
keep these facts in view when buying
young or work mules The rough.
leggy animal should be avoided. S.ch
are mean feeders and seldom fatten.
This is also true Of colts. II is possi-
BILE, says Orange Judd Farmer, to tell
with reasonable certainty which colts
will feed out well and which will not.
The colt that keeps nearly fat on ordi-
nary feed and with ordinary care can
be depended on, while the one that Is
stunted, rough and thin is a doubtful
feeder. Some of our feeders raise
their own stock mules, buying colts
and yearlings. then pasturing or feed.
ing them very much as cattle are fed
Feeding usually begins in early fall
and continues until the end OF the
year. Many carloads OF two-year-old
mules go south.
The feeding is best done in sheds
equipped for that purpose. In most
sections, at least five kinds OF feed
can be had. Corn is the principal fat
tening element, but bran and shelled
oats act as a loosening agent and pro-
duce a good coat. Such feeds should
be given in the proportion OF one part
bran or oats to three or four parts
corn. Soy beans are promising mule

with special reference to cotton mules.

mands. Most all the cotton mules
from Kentucky are sold through the

in the late fall or early winter and
closes in early spring.

The usual method OF starting a
breed OF live stock is to select two
or more unusually good animals from
group that has been developed I'm
a certain direction by means OF better
food, better environment sid careful
selection from a greater number. No
breed IS ever started II the animals
that can be used are not better than
the same breed Of animals IN another
locality. At the beginning this work
Is carried on by a few men. some
times by one. 1n-breeding has to be
practiced for generations TIL certain
characteristics are fixed in the ami
mails. The in-breeding Is intensified
by constantly eliminating those AMI
mails not Of the desired type.
