FARMER OWES MUCH TO MULE
Animal 10 Hard and Rugged Worker
and Almost In jispsnsabis in
Many Localities.

The mule. like everybody else. has
his place. He IL considered bad
actor. Fathers caution their sons
about going near any animal with long
ears and ropy tail. Tie sons know
what the animal will do because they
have been looking over the funny
paper" each Sunday and were de-
lighted In seeing the mule fold up and
let loose with kick that sent a man
through the side Of a barn or over
the fence. But In spite Of this un.
desirable advertising the mule Is with
u today on more farms than ever
before. He IL hard and rugged
worker and Is especially adapted to
the more hilly farms Of our agricul-
tural sections. Even through the
Middle West there are some counties
that have more mules than horses. In
1857. the mules Of the United States
numbered $4,000. with an average
value Of 1904. In 1890 the number
was 1921 900. valued at $7S.25. BY
1914 the number had Increased to
4.123.OOO. with value Of $110.s4 per
head. On January l. 1920. the mum.
her was 4.09o.OO0 and the value per
head was $147.
The mule has gained rapidly in
popularity. In many localities taking
the place Of the horse. and has also
prevented the Introduction Of the trac.
tor In many places. There are not
few mule ranches over the United
States. the owners finding 1t a pny.
Ing kind OF stock to raise. The de
mand Is increasing and those having
them for sale cannot supply the mar.

Advice Changes, Just as Bonds

taking on except speculation any OF
the securities OF the Chicago. Milwaukee

series A. 1889. on your advice Your com
ment to-day worries me and VIII greatly
appreciate your advice I can sell my
bond without any loss. What shall l buy
IN place OF it?-W H. W.
Answer-In the last three years the
position of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul has changed materially. It
was not many years ago that the pre-
ferred stock of this company was con-
sldered an investment suitable even
Tor woman, and the common stock
as standing very high. Since then the
company had TO pass it's dividend on
both its preferred and common stock
The very fact that you can sell your
bond to-day without loss would appear
to us to Justify the position we took at
that time. Under present conditions
however, and notwiths the fact
that we are rather inclined to the
opinion that the st. Paul will work ont
its problems, we would not advise in
vestfhent In St Paul where safety uas

Answer" Perfectly safe" is too strong
an expression for any investment. We
consider the Southwestern Bell Tele-
phone tive-year per cent notes as a
good investment with high degree Of
safety: The Republic of Chile s per
cent sinking fund bonds due 1871 are q
good foreign government investment
with the understanding that Chile, like
other South American republics, has
not had such high credit rating in the
past as has Great Britain, Switzerland
or France. For greater safety we would

Investment Information

B A.
Answer-Lima Locomotive preferred
Is selling around 90 We consider it
good industrial preferred stock, but
unless woman is rather unusually
well informed in regard to business
conditions we would be inclined to
think that good government bonds, such
as, for instance, the recent Dominion
of Canada or United Kingdom issues,
would be wiser investment. There
are three keenly competing locomotive
manufacturing companies in the United
States namely, Baldwin, the Ameri-
can and Lima. Furthermore, condi-
tions connected with the purchase of
new equipment by railroad companies
are at present somewhat uncertain
Lima earned at the rate of 26 per cent
on its preferred in 1919, 30 per cent
in 1918 and Is per cent in 1917, all
prosperous years in its industry The
company was incorporated in 1916.

Answer-Advance Rumely Companv
IS a reorganization of the M. Runeiy

ana mas several manufacturing plants
IN the Middle West. The preferred

.st-ndlng is entitled to per cent cnnn-
iatlYe dividends. The initial dividend
or J Z per cent on the preferred was
paid IN April, 1919. This is the nres-
ent basis OF preferred dividend nav
mients 1t IS our opinion that the stock
Is not well seasoned enough to make il
a hrst class preferred stock investment
ou must consider the fact that +ha
business of selling farming machinery
IS not very prosperous because of The

Copper Output

James McNaughton, general manager
Of the Calumet and Hecla Mining Com
pany, in & recent address at Calumet,
Mich. declared that the present rate OF
copper production ranges from 80 to
60 per cent of the output in normal
times He estimated that the amount
Of copper above ground in storage, at
smelters and in process OF manufac~
ture, is 1900 600 600 pounds. The Calu-
met and Hecla mines, alone, he said.
have a surplus of 100000 pounds.
The average mine, MIR Naughton
asserted, is not making a profit
today, and. in fact is not even
making enough to pay for deprecia
ton. No betterment OF this condition,
in his opinion. can be expected until
Europe can afford TO buy copper or a
more liberal scale
