Not a mule is on feed on Cal
laway county at his time and
prospects now are that very few
will be fed in the Kingdom this
season. A year ago feeders
were buying extensively and
putting their purchases in fat
tening pens as fast as they
could get them.
Uncertainty as to the future
of the mule business is respon-
sible for the inactivity of the
Kingdom feeders. Losses they
suffered last season also are
making them wary. Mules are
not worth more than half what
they were a year ago and with
the cotton country broke as re-
CARDS ready cash there does not
seem to be a chance for them to
go higher.

niverary Dec 81, 1920. Father is
"a years old and mother 81. They
reside on the farm they began i'm
proving in Sept. 1875, six miles east
of Mexico.
Jacob Erisman, a brother aged 88
years, who improved and lived 10
years opposite Erisman school house
sent his relatives in this county the
following this summer: Il am well
and work some every day and have
not failed to make my yearly trip to
Carrollton, Ill, unaccompanied."
May / have the privilege to hand
a bouquet to my parents while they
r here to enjoy it with US: Father
is a lover of nature. The beautiful
trees that surround the beautiful
Erisman school house are partly due
to his suggestion and work. Recently
a young lady visiting them from
Nebraska embracing las nearly as
she could) an elm tree in their yard
said to her brother if we had this at
home We wouldn't take a thousand
dollars for it. The tree was set 45
years ago.
We often hear that work shortens
lffe-if that is true they would have
been gone years ago. At nine yeras
Of age they began supporting younger
brothers and sisters. Mother has al
ways been the help-mate a working
man needs.
AS this is u centennial year let
us hear from others still older. I have
IN mind~a number who can break our
record.
