DUBLIN. N h. July n. 1907.
The road to Dublin. N. H. Is not rocky,
but very smooth. and it leads through some
OF the most beautiful groves and pastures
you ever saw and around the margin Of .
lovely lake called Monadnock. The noun
tain of the same namo furnishes q noble
background to the picture and Is reflected
In the waters 20 perfectly that q stranger
might think 1t had fallen In and died from
drowning.
Dublin is the most aristocratic. tho rnost
expensive and the most exclusive Of all the
summer places in New Hampshire It has
the handsomest houses and private parks In
the state and its Inhabitants are mostly
rich people who came here twenty years
ago and bought up the hilltops and the
hillsides. the roaring brooks In the valleys
and the farms that lie around the lake:
and they built artistic villas like those at
Stockbridge and Lenox. which cost a lot
OF money, but are only occupied four or
nve months IN the year: 1t seems sinful
for the owners of such delightful places to
neglect the privileges and opportunities
that every man with a love and taste for
luxury and leisure would covet. Many of
the houses cost from 100000 to $4,000
thousand acres Of woodland stretching of
behind them among the hilltops. The ma
tives are always amazed when they dis
cover that city millionaire IN willing "a
pay more for a pile Of rocks than for q

BREEDING THE
HARDY MULE

A well known Ohio breeder, A. Krek-
Ter, writing in the National Stockman
and Farmer. gives his experience In
raising and handling jacks and mules.
as follows:
am so situated that hear from al
most every state In the Union and for
eign countries inquiring for jacks and
mules. and the demand for good jacks
and mules has been rapidly increasing
for the last ten years. while the price
has been advancing. Last season !

hundred mules. and nearly all | heard
from did well.

such as a binder or corn harvester
with much less worry than the horse
In hot weather.
In muddy or fiat countries the mule
should be bred with large feet, the
same as horses
Why do the armies OF the world
want mulesf Simply because Of the
mules nature. He can withstand more
hardships than the horse. His heavy
jawbo:s enables him to live on very
rough food or forage. He responds
readily to kind treatment and viii
stand more exertion and live longer
than the horse. Nearly every state In
the Union raises more or less mules.
and In the great majority OF them the
mules are valued on an average Of $40
higher than horses.
Now. IL the mule is so valuable when

too much blemished or UNIT to breed

II he had an equal chance Of having
