Good Money In
Raising Of Mules
There are several advantages
which the breeding of mules, the
draft animal of the South, offers
over horse breeding. These
reasons are in part those which
make the breeding of draft horses
the most profitable for the North¬
ern farmer. Heavy horses are
not popular in the South and
possibly there are certain climatic
reasons for this; and therefore,
we must either breed light harness
or saddle horses or goto the mule.
The breeding of these classes of
horses requires greater skill and
care, a larger investment for
breeding stock ami heavier expense
in training and fitting for market.
In mule breeding a cheaper
grade of mares may be used, while
at the same time they are the best
type of farm work horse and the
young animals are more easily
raised, go on to the market at an
earlier age and require no special
fitting or education to render
them salable.
We do not agree that a mule
can be raised as cheaply as a
steer, nor that mule raising is
likely to be the most profitable on
rough cheap lands, without abund¬
ance of feed and good intelligent
care, but on good lands which will
produce good pasture and with
liberal feeding, the raising of
mules at present prices, offers
profits no loss attractive than 15
cent cotton and 75-cent corn.
Counting the work which the
brood mares and the young mules
will do, and which is so much
needed on our farms in order to
cultivate them economically, the
average cost of raising a mule
need not be more than one half
the average selling price, in re-
years.
Counting the depreciation in the
of a mare and the interest
the money invested in her at
a year, allowing $10 as the
fee of the jack and calcu¬
one mule colt to two mares,
we have $50 as the cost of the
colt. If to this we add S25
year for his feeding, we have a
mule at a cost of $100:
a three-year-old mule at a cost
$125. Of course, it will cost
more than $25 to properly grow a
niule from 2 to 3 years of age,
but during this time lie may be
broken and earn in work perform¬
ed a good share of his keep. Even
on this liberal estimate a profit of
from $75 to $100 may be made on
each 3-year-old mule. This alone,
even though there were no other
reasons why we should grow more,
should be sufficient to induce any
farmer to consider the direct
profits of mule raising most favor¬
ably.—Raleigh (N. C.) Progressive

That specialization in education
j ias a strong hold upon the people
is note d by the Philadelphia Led-
ger, which says: “In these corn¬
mencement days, when thousands
0 f young men and women are being
dismissed from institutions of learn-
of all sorts, it is refreshing, not to
say unusual, to read the following
in connection with the graduation
exercises of the Philadelphia Trades
School: “The Twenty-four gradu¬
ates of last year are all at work,
and of the twenty-nine to be grad¬
uated this year, ten are already at
work,and it is expected that before
the end of the end of the month all
will he employed at the particular
branch of work in which they have
specialized.”
