Mules in Demand.

Working mules are in good demand
Mule values alone have jumped in the
last two years from $251, $4,000 to
| $42S, 064 900, according to the PhilaS
delphia Record, sum greater thar
the estimated value of all the auto
mobiles in the country, including maj
chimes costing $1o0,OOO,OOO that arc
now on the scrap heap.
With these figures before them,
breeders and dealers are perhaps war
ranted in holding to the belief that
without putting the horse out of bust
ness, it will keep the motor cars busy
to catch up with the long cared by.
birds, whose top notes so resemble
their own.
Grooming is as necessary to keep
a horse in good condition as feeding.
II the horses skin lis coated and his
hair filled with dust, dirt and dan
druff the pores of the skin which form
outlets for the sweat glands are clog
ged and matter that should pass off
thus is thrown back into the animals
system often creating disease condi-
tons. A daily application of curry
comb and brush and elbow grease will
prevent the application of many me-
dicaments.
While the demands of the market
are principally for geldings, the farm
work should be largely done by mares
that are fully able to produce a foal
each Syear. The feasibility of this
plan has been abundantly shown by
experience.
1t is more conducive to the health
and hardness Of horse stock to be
kept in barns that are well ventilated
and not warmed by artificial heat,
than in close and steam-heated stables
Pure air is essential to pure blood and
good health as is pure food.

ing the work and that is moi comfort

warm weather.
It is quite an undertaking to build
a home. 1t means with most persons
years of hard work, but they are the
happiest years to look back over. slIE

a person uses the right kind or
plan, plan the cost of which viii be

lected.
The little details that go to make
up a satisfactory house must not ba
overlooked. A house without a bath
room is a back number. No one
wants bedroom without a clothes
closet and it does not pay to try to
do without hot and cold running wa
ter both upstairs and down. When
the plumber is at work it costs but
a trifle more to have pipe for hot
water laid at the same time the cold
water pipe is put in. There are
other incidentais but these are tba
most important.

Our patient and painstaking health
department says that more men are
oylng in Chicago than women because
men are so busy leading the strenu.
Gus life while the women, presumably,
are lolling at home in the hammock
uhder the shade of the old apple tree
with the latest novel, says the Chi.
cago Daily News. That may be how
IL Is. The health department ought
80 know. But might not the fact that
man puts in so much of his time
smoking cigars and drinking whisky
nave something to do with it? OF
course it is comforting to man to
tell him that he is killing himself
with work, but IT, he will hire a cheap
detective to shadow his wife or his
sister he will discover that she puts
In as many hours az toll as he does
and that she usually works a few
more hours after he comes home
while he is sitting on the front steps
smoking and settling the affairs of the
nation with some overworked neigh
Dor. Man may be killing himself by
oVerwork, but it would be hard to
make the neighbors believe it.

European armies blaze with decora
tons and orders of merit 1t is con
tfary to the spirit of this, country tc
give official sanction to arbitrary
ranks and distinctions apart from the
regular grades of service and special
recognitions of merit given by con
gress. But there is at least one order
of American officers which congress
has recognized to the extent of per
Knitting the members to wear the
badge with their uniform on proper
occasions. This is the Order Of the
Dragon, which was established by
commissioned officers of the army at
Peking in 1900. The members are
commissioned officers of the Ameri.
can army and navy who served in
China during the Boxer troubles, and
there are honorary members from
other armies and navies which took
part in the campaign of the allies. The
society is in some Ways similar to the
Order of the Cincinnati founded by
French and American officers at the
close of the American revolution, the
object of which was to perpetuate
friendships formed during the war.
