Moving their business from Nash
willie to Columbia, the Guytor & Har-
rington Co., who supply all the mules
used by England in the present war,
have made Columbia their concentra-
4ion and supply point, and Will keep
IN hand in this city from three to five
thousand mules for shipment to the
British forces in the field. Columbia
has been made the inspection point,
and the Southern business of the great
firm, OF which Frank Dale is the man
ger, will be carried on at this place.
The comapny is buying from $50 to
$50 mules day, and has on hand at
present 1000 mules awaiting shipment
to the British. In addition to the large
number of animals which will be con-
centrated in Columbia for war purpos-
ss, the company has sent to Columbia
$500 of their own mules. These, to-
gether with the war mules, will make
from 1000 to 5000 mules which will
be kept at the Columbia Stock Yards
or on properties leased by the Guyton
q Harrington Co., in this city.
The amount of feed and labor need
ed to handle this proposition is enor-

carloads of hay, seven hundred BUSH
