It is foolhardy to use the best mares
for raising mules. There are too few
of them to keep up the horse supply.
There are plenty of poor or unsound
mares that will rear good mules said
W. A. Cochel, head of the department
of animal husbandry at the Kansas
Agricultural college, to class in
horse production, recently
The best mule is produced from a
light type of horse, Professor Cochel
said. A good mule-producing mare has
big head; is rugged, roomv, compar-
atively heavy bone, a good big foot,
and is outstanding. The jack should
be as high as possible, have Roman
nose, coarse bone, a big foot, and long
ears.
A mule eats in an irregular manner.
and it is almost impossible to founder
him. They do better if fed in a lot
than in stall. On farms where it is
necessary to have hired men it is
best to let them work mules, because
of the smaller danger of injury or loss
due to bad driving or feeding. Mules

a great thing, in any creature, even
man.
You will have plenty of offers for
the best lambs; but if you are smart,
you will keep enough Of them to make
your flock good and growing better
every year. Prices do not count
when it comes to building up flock.
The best flock master is the kind
est man.
Long-legged sheep never ought to
be used as breeders
Sell your wool on rising Market
1t is when the tide goes out that wa
drop our bundle.
Mutton and meat of lambs advances
in price about forty per cent, usu-
ally, between the farm and the man
who eats it. If you can get bit near
er to the last man, you can save him
some money and yourself a good lot.
Can't you do it?
The public market is the best way
so far devised for cutting out the long
string of middlemen that are eating
the people up alive. More and more
cities and large towns are adopting
that plan. More should do so, and do
it soon.

EXCELLENT NOTES
OF THE SHEEPF0LD
Weed Out Every Individual Animal
That Is Not Young, Thrifty
and of Good Build.
CBy q. L. YINCENT.l

Look round for a better head for
your flock of sheep than you ever had
before. Be willing to pay the cost.
1t will all come back.
Let your breeding stock be the best
on the farm. Weed out every indi-
vidual that is not thrifty, we'll built
and young.
l was talking the other day with a
man who has a special arrangement
with a butcher downtown to take so
many lambs every week at a certain
specified price per pound. That man
has no trouble to dispose of his sur
plus stock. He takes the matter by
the right handle. Get your market,
then work for the lambs.
Never buy eve with great long
hoofs. The longer her hoofs the few
er teeth she is apt to have, and tooth.
less sheep are the poorest property a
man can have on his farm.
IN picking out lambs for the home
flock, select those that have short
legs and stocky bodies, with good
straight backs. A good backbone is

passed out of existence. The turkey rattle with
dice is still custom in some parts of the coun-
try. Usually the turkey is tough bird which
was purchased cheap by the proprietor of the
saloon (for the rattle usually takes place there)
The rattle, of course, draws crowd of men, who
incidentally patronize the bar during the pro-
ceedings. Another sportive feature of Thanks
giving no longer in vogue the shooting
match where live turkeys tied to sticks
used. This cruel practice was abandoned be-
cause the New England clergy objected, not on
account of it's cruelty, but because it kept the
away from the church service. This
seems to fit in with the idea of the back in
the seventeenth century Who while they
eating a Thanksgiving dinner of venison, discov-
cred that the deer had been killed on Sunday.
They at once sent for the Indian and had him
publicly whipped and also compelled him to
return the money which he had been paid for
the deer. This being done, they at re-
sumed their dinner and finished up the venison
New York city is responsible for the strangest
of all Thanksgiving customs, and one which has
only recently died out. Young and boys
used to dress themselves in fantastic garb and
parade the streets-hundreds of the boys wear.
ing their sisters old clothes, their faces smeared
with paint and their heads covered with wigs
AS late 1885 they held parades and made the
street hideous with their humping drums and
blaring trumpets In 1870 this queer perform
took on the dignity Of a political parade and
prizes distributed to the companies wearing
the most unique clothing. Senator William NJ
Tweed, the famous political boss of that period
was the donor Of prize of $500 in gold. This
custom was undoubtedly survival of Guy
Fawkes days, carried out OH a later day in the
year; for some unknown reason 1t was practiced
only In New York CITY,
Thanksgiving has always been day of char.
ity, and in the old days it was considered bad
luck to turn even tramp from the door, and
today our friendly inns almshouses and chari
able institutions have their turkey dinners usual
ly gifts from charitable people Our prisons too
serve their inmates with a hearty meal and have
some sort of service of praise The customs of
the great national holiday may have changed
somewhat, yet the spirit OF the first Thanksgiv-
ing which was held at Plymouth in 1921 still
hovers about the national day of prayer and
praise of the twentieth century, spirit of
thankfulness to God for his mercy and kindness
to the people Of our great American republic

are easily fattened in a small lot, and
do not fight, but they do not fatten
in a large lot because they are too
restless.
A careless or ignorant man can be-
successful in breeding mules, but hes
would fail with horses. But CAREFUL
man will be more successful with
horses than with mules. A Kansas
farmer cannot afford to work good
draft ge1dings, but should work draft
mares, mules or geldings that are still
| increasing in value.
| The average value of mules in alA
states except one is from one to eight
dollars more than the average value
of horses in the same states. The ex4
ception is Rhode Island. There is all
ways a good market for mules. They
are freer from blemishes and unsound4
nesses and less susceptible to diseased
| They live longer than horses at heavy
labor and can be driven by ignorant
help with less danger of loss. They
can be sold at any age, and can take

Do you know of anything on the
farm that will run into money faster
than hogs when around 6 or 7 cents
per pound?
1t increases the feeding value of
corn to soak it from "a to AZ hours,
but the hogs will relish an occasional
feed of dry grain.
An armful of green cornstalks will
add relish to the hogs ration but it
should not be fed regularly until the
corn in the ear has hardened beyond
the possibility Of frost.
