198 BREED HISTORIES 



rapid. As a breeder of Mulefoot, I am now taking pains to cross 

 the different families, and to have a hog equal to any breed. While 

 the Mulefoots have been inbred to a certain extent, they attain 

 to weights equal to those of Poland- Chinas or Duroc Jerseys, and 

 can easily attain to individual weights of 600 to 800 pounds. 

 The color of the Mulefoots is usually black, sometimes black with 

 white spots.
