MONEY IN MULES.

Raising Mules for the market -
an industry which for some reason
Is almost entirely neglected In the
eastern and middle states, yet there
is no safer, surer method of making
money. especially for the small farm
er.
The notion that one needs bound
a county to raise mules successfully
has been threshed out and exploded
long ago. There are no extensive
mule breeding plants in Missouri. yet
this state raises the largest and
finest mules in the whole world.
A farmer with hundred acres
could raise a couple of mules every
year. When three years old, If
fair size, they will bring him 5000
each. II extra large and well shap
ed they will bring almost as much
more. There is, always a demand
and a ready market for any mule,
and the bigger the mule the bigger
the price.
One man with farm of 200 acres
keeps one driving. horse and ten
mares. Each one of these mares
raises mule colt every year besides
doing all the farm work, and on this
particular farm there is plenty for
them to do.
The colts are allowed to run with
the mares until four months old
They are then placed in a pasture
by themselves and are never siow-
ed to stop growing until they have
attained their full growth. from
the time they leave the mare, until
they are shipped to market they are
never fed hay or oats. SoweA corn,
bean fodder, cornstalks and strsw in
winter and grass in summer is their
diet.
"My experience" writes this farm
er in Country Life in America, has
taught me that mules thrive best CT.
coarse food-nOt fence rails and the
windy end of barn, but any other
food than hay or oats. My rations for

at would be hard to find a smooth
er, slicker bunch anywhere, and
they have not lost a weeks work in
five years. They are groomed and
curried every night, the same as any
valuable working horse, and the
drivers are never allowed to whip;
any abuse or overlooking results in
the quick discharge of the driver, for
mule is of all working animals the
most timid and shy. They will go
any place and do anything if they
know it is all right, and if they do
not know it will not do it,

PURPLE IN NEW SHADE
AMONG SPRING COL0Rs

One Of the prettiest Of the new and
fashionable colors is a deep purple
which one associates with the large
single violet. This shade figures
much in millinery, often in connection
with the cerise tones and in It's dark
est shades is vastly more becoming
and more easily worn than most pur-
Pies
1t bids fair to rank in popularity
with cerise and empire green as q
relieving tone and several of the new
est coats have been shown with q
touch of this lovely purple.

little time to come. But from the best
information at hand, which was based
on such reports as have been received
in the last few days, he did not think
fruit had suffered to as great an extent
as might be supposed.
Prospects for the present season are
very bright, and it is expected that
new records will be established. While
crops will hardly be as large as last
year, it is pointed out that the incrt as,
ed efficiency of the growers associa-
ton in commanding ready sales and
good prices will have It's effect in even
ing things up.

Late Summer Chicks.

There is one advantage in late
chicks Notwithstanding the fact that
they usually do not get thir full growth
before the cold weather. They are
bought and put into cold storage and
sold in the spring in place of broilers,
at different price, of course, and this
creates demand for the chicks until
late in the season The demand for
early broilers in spring will still be
large, and those who wish the best
prices must begin to gather the eggs
for setting says the Mirror and Farm
er. These late chicks do not lessen
the price of t. real article i'll the
early months Of spring, as may be
supposed, but they do demand better
prices when stored and sold as late
Matched chicks. The cold storage
fowls can never compete with the
fresh-killed broiler for the same price,
and the honest poultryman would new
er substitute the late-hate1ed chick
for broiler on an unsuspecting GUS
toner. They do not bring the same
price, and never will, but they do
bring in returns to the poultryman
who would otherwise have to use them
himself or feed them all winter in
order to get anything from them The
market has been created in tbs past.
and the pouitryman's business is to
supply the market.
