agriculture "H there were more
skunks there would be better foliage.
better lawns and better trees" says
DR.. Fisher, who apparently feels deep
" because of the general disfavor with
which the skunk is regarded HE rs
a benefactor. He is a great insect eater
and is especially fond of the white
grub, which is the young member of
the May beetle or the commonly called
June bug. Let the skunks alone and
they will eat the white grubs and the
tree growers, gardeners and lawn max
ers will be the gamers.
"a hungry skunk will do an almost
incredible amount Of good in one sea-
SON in preserving lawns, If he is not
b,ftchered on sight. The white grub
lives in the roots Of grasses, and will
destroy a handsome lawn in brief
space of time If left to work nn-
checked. Turn a pair of skunks loose
in that lawn, and the white grubs will!
soon disappear. The skunks will dig
thew up and destroy them and the
lawn will become thick and velvety."
