In the United States, in lieu of the camel, we employ the burro and the mule, as best adapted to mountainous travel, and when in numbers, instead of using the word caravan, we employ the words pack train. As the burro in its travel, by natural instinct, follows in the step of its' fellow, the mule being a close relation has inherited this peculiar trait. Another peculiarity of the mule is its attachment for the dam or horse kind ; all animal nature has a fondness for the mother^ and the mule is... no exception; the fact is, it shows an unusual degree of attachment and plays no favorites as to sex. Due to this fact man selects the horse, for obvious reasons, as best adapted to lead a train of pack mules. THE BELL HORSE. This animal, by preference, should be of medium height or pony built; that is, small in foot, short in step, and quick in action, indicating ability to climb a mountain side without un- due fatigue; to qualify this statement the ordinary horse of large conformation is large and flat in foot, a condition that endangers its life when leading a train of pack mules in moun- tainous country.
