Dad liked to work with mules. Mules will stop when they are tired or hot; mules will not over-eat and founder themselves like horses. He was down to 2 old mules and 4 work horses when I was 5 years old. There were not many mules being raised by then so he went with the horses. He only had one team of work horses left, although he hadn't worked them for several years, when we built the new barn in 1950. When he discovered that the hay mow floor was too low for the horses to walk under, he very reluctantly put the stock rack on the truck and took the horses to auction. That must have been kind of hard from him, as he would not let any on us kids go along with him.
