ACTIVE DEMAND FOR MULES.
They Bring $3.50 a Head at Memphis
and the Supply Is Inadequate.

Memphis, Tenn, May 24-There is
an exceptionally active demand for
mules in this market and the supply is
considerably below the demand, and
prices are of record proportions. One
firm here has just closed a deal with
railroad contractor for 100 mules at
$3.50 a head and has engaged $50 more
at the same price for delivery within
thirty days. He says he does not
know where he will find the mules
now. The heaviest demand Is from
logging. lumber. levee and railroad
contracting interests and the price Is
due In some measure to the exception
ally large kind of stock desired for this
particular work. Not many years ago
mules were very cheap as compared
VITA h"rses, but now the former will
bring almost twice as much as the lat
ter.
