COON ADOPTS GUINEA CHICKS

Smoke" a pet coon belonging TO
Franklin Sauter of Montessin, Pa, has
adopted a brood of young guinea hens
that were Matched in the oven OF Mrs
Sauter's stove recently. Local natural
lists and woodsmen assert that this is
the only instance on record where a
coon is known to have overcome its
natural instincts TO kill all feathered
creatures. Several months ago Sau-
ter captured young coon that had
been pulled down and injured by the
dogs. 1t soon became domesticated
and became a great pet around the
house. Sauter is also breeder of
guinea fowl, which are prone to leave
their nests and sit in the field and
woodlands. Missing one several weeks
ago. Sauter traced her to the fields
and secured ten of her eggs. which.
as it proved, were within days time
Of incubation. Not having an incuba-
tor, Sauter put the eggs in the oven
of his stove. and when they were
Matched he placed the chicks in box
behind the stove. He was greatly sur
prised in the morning to find the coon
in the box "mothering" them.
