. Onsus twrrao. tiau irom iwenry
eight counties in Tennessee and from
scattered counties in Kentucky, North
jrolina, Florida and Georgia havebeen
.eceived. These figures show a .trend
in these states to decrease horse and
increase mules. Horses in he twenty
eight counties in Tennessee total 73,490
-a loss of 001 since 1910. Mules
aumber 87,672, a gain of 21,124 over
1910 figures, making a net gain of 16,
123 in both borses and mules. The
scattered countiea in other states refer-i-d
to. show substantially the same con
dition in an increase of mules, but a de
crease in horses.
The figures do not present a direct
comparison,. for be 1920 census was tak
en in January, and the 1910 census in
April, when a good .many foals existed
and were enumerated. They do disclose
however, a decrease in hones owned in
he south.
The mule is the only fool proof mot
ire power unit. They can go out singly.
or in pairs, lours, sixes, and alter a
full.dya's work, return hoe all right,
whether the driver does or not. In
these days ot irresponsible labor, that
is a big factor.
The South is dependent upon
Central West for its work stock.
the
Not
one-eighth of the horses and mule an
nually needed in the southeastern states
are raised here, and the decrease in
horses indicates that the south prefer
to produce cotton and purchase work
animals, instead of raising them.
Prospects now are for a greater de
mand and higher prices for good mules
than ever before.

Varieties of wheat and oats for plant

of progress made through experiments

various regions of the state. Superior
varieties developed at the College have
retained their ability to produce in
creased yields in other regions. Seed
