Putting money in the bank does not

is because we spend more money than

that Il is econouy TO buy goods Of

for her armies. negotiations are being
carried on with agents OF the French

these countris will place contracts
for mules in the near future. A lack
Of appreciation OF the great value OF
mules for war purposes, dealers OF
Missouri say. is the reason for thf
failure Of the French government
which is buying thousands OF cavalry
and artillery horses weekly in the
United states to take mules.
