cotton growers. Some people imagine
that mules don't need any special
care. because. as a rule, their makeup
is rugged. That's true in this respect.
They can stand more abuse than any
animal used for heavy working pur-
poses. But at breeding time attention
to feeding should be given. Some grain
for the mules to keep them in good
condition without fattenlng them is
very important. II the mule runs
down from lack Of nourishing food
either the progeny will be weak and
lacking in vigor or the breeding may
be entirely prevented The best Of all
grain foods for keeping the mule in
condition are oats. Rye is sometimes
fed and in some cases is very good.
It should be kept from the animals
after they have been bred, as it may
cause abortion.

TELL HOW SPOTS
GOT ON THE MOON
Indians Declare That at Dane
ing Bee Young Men Made
Trip and Reached Planet

In every country in the world peo-
pie have spun fancies about the curious
spots on the bright, round face Of the
moon.
The American Indians tell two leg
ends accounting for these spots. one is
that the man in the moon was a
hunter with his dog. banished to the
sky for some transgression.
The other, says the Washington post,
relates that long ago a group of In
dian boys met every evening to dance
about one of their number who was a
sweet singer. AT last, one night when
their parents refused their request for
dainties to make a great feast, they
danced as usual, and the singer sang
more sweetly than ever before. AS he
sang they danced ever faster.
Still singing. he rose into the air;
still they whirled round him. Their
parents called them. but they only
rose and danced higher The one boy
who looked back fell to the earth and
changed into a pine tree. The others
rose toward the sky till they stepped
into the moon, where they may be seen
on any moonlight night
on certain nights Of the year In
dams still climb high as possible into
pine trees and, stretching their arms
toward the heavens, chant prayers to
these boys to bring blessings from
the moon to the earth.
In New Zealand the Maoris say that
a man went out one night and on
stumbling sprained his ankle. Where
upon he lamented so loudly that at
last the moon came down and took
hold OF him. In his fright he seized a
bush, but the moon pulled that up by
the roots and sailed back into the sky
with both man and bush.
In China moon worship still exists
and the Chinese say that the man in
the moon arranges marriages and ties
together with an invisible silken cord
the youths and maidens whom he in
tends to unite; he Is evidently the Gre
ator Of the honeymoon.
Cinnamon call the woman in the
moon the queen of all fairies and fancy
they can see her palace.
Samoan islanders believe that the
moon came down one night and stole
the woman Sina, working in the twi-
light. Never able TO return to earth
you may see her now in the moon. with

was beating out bark 70 make cloth

METHOD TO TELL
AGE OF THE SHEEP

A prominent professor Of animal
husbandry in a leading university says
that fine wool sheep live longer than
medium or coarse wool sheep. The
former have been used successfully as
breeders from one to eight years and
the latter from one TO six and more
rarely seven years. The prime Of life
probably extends from one to Eve or
six years.
The lamb has a short and small
head as opposed TO the head Of the
mature sheep. Its teeth are smaller in
every way. They are usually smooth
and white as opposed to a more CORFU
gated. darkened surface in the old
sheep. The age of sheep Is told by the
four pairs of incisors which are found
only on the lower front jaw. These
are all present by the time the lamb is
six weeks old.
In the yearling the central pair Of
small ineisor teeth are replaced with a
large pair when the lamb is ten to
fourteen months old. They are almost
twice as wide and much longer than
those at either side
At the age of two years the animal
gets a second pair Of large teeth.
At three years it gets a third pair of
large teeth. 1t would then have three
pairs OF large teeth and one pair of
small or lamb teeth.
The four-year-old has a full mouth
Of four pairs of large teeth. The outer
ones are never as large as those in the
center.
After the sheep is four years old II
is difficult to tell the exact age. With
age the teeth usually grow longer and
narrower. They begin at six years to
resemble shoe pegs. Sheep that are liv-
ing on short pasturage and get sand
with their grass wear their teeth short
even in old age. This is unusual in
Minnesota.
When sheep get long, peg-liks or bro.
ken teeth, it is time TO dispose OF
/ them
