lime to the soil Immediately after

ly from wagons or carts or dumped
into heaps and then spread with a
shovel. although the most satisfactory
plan In such cases is TO use lime

fertilizer attachment. Where a lime
spreader or similar implement Is not
available the burnt lime may be plac-
ed on the soil In piles Of from forty

who cultivate them to resort to lin

The method usually resorted to for

that II only one-half Of per cent In

For this purpose lay out two plats OF

THE SKUNK IS A
FRIEND 70 AGRICULTURE
Secretary of Agriculture of the
United States Gives Out
The Following

oSheSAs shtOoebOub Vic SuunbIy
by a number of varieties, gen.
era. and species, Is an animal of
great economic Importance. Its
food consists very largly of in
sects, mainly of those species
which are very destructive tc
garden and forage crops. Field
observations and labratory ex.
animation demonstrate that
they destroy immense numbers
Of white grubs, grasshoppers,
crickets. cutworms. hornets,
wasps. and other noxious forms.
The alarming increase of the
white grub in some localities is
largely due to the determination
of this valuable animal.
1t is a matter of common OBJ
servation where white grubs
are particularly abundant in
cornfelds to note little. round
holes burrowed in the ground
about hills of corn. These are
made by skunks in their search
during the night for these grubs.
During the recent outbreak of
grasshoppers in Kansas it has
been determined that in many
cases a large portion Of the food
of skunks consisted of these
grasshoppers.
Some of the most destructive
insects in agriculture are such
az do their work below ground
and out Of reach of any method
that the farmer can apply. and
II is against many of these that
the skunk is an inveterate
enemy. Notwithstanding all OF
this. there is probably not an
animal that is as ruthlessly
slaughtered as is this one,
whereas tits equally entitled to
protection with, if not more so.
tbae~aome of our birds which
ehjoy this privilege.
In some regions, especially in
the Southwest. the bite of the
skunk is supposed to produce
hydrophobia. This fear is un-
founded since it is proved that
the bite of a healthy skunk is no
more serious than similar
wounds caused by other agen-
cies.
In connection with the work
of the range caterpillar investi-
cations in northeastern New
Mexico it has been found that
sku nks destroy a great many of
the pupae Of this caterpillar, and
in fact, during September and
October. when this food is easily
available. they prefer it to all
other. About the middle of
September it was discovered
that many webs were empty.
the pupae having been neatly
extracted from the web and
either carried off or eaten. In
many areas containing hundreds
of acres from % to rs per cent
of the 'pupae had been carried
off, while in a few isolated
places as high as 95 per cent the
HemiIeuca. Mexican range cat
erpillar. the pupae was gone.
Following these observations,
piles of skunk eXcremeni were
found which consisted in some
cases almost entirely of pupae
shells. Subsequent counts made
show the excrement found to
have from go to 50 per cent of
its contents consisting of these
crushed shells. On the Grow
Creek Ranch there was not an
a.aa ohoarvad hut uhaf had
some of the Hemileuea pupae
destroyed by these animals. 1t
10 thus seen that the common
skunk is at the present time one
of the most important factors
looking toward the control of
Hemileuca outbreaks and should
be protected by the ranchers in
the infested districts.
