SKUNK VALUABLE

FARMING STATES
ITS FOOD CONSISTS LARGELY
OF DESTRUCTIVE GARDEN
INSECTS.
is ENTITLED TO PROTECTION
Observations Show That They Are
Very Destructive to the Caterpill.
ar the White Grub Worm and the
Kansas Grasshoppers.

The skunk, which is represented
throughout the country by a number
of varieties, genera, and species, is
an animal of great economic import
ance. It's food consists very largely
of insects, mainly of those species
which are very destructive to garden
and forage crps. Field observations
and laboratory examination demon
strate that they destroy immense
numbers of white grubs, grasshop-
pers, 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 matter of common observa-
ton where white grubs are particu.
.larly 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 grass.
hoppers in aKnsas it has been deter
mined that in many cases a large
proportion of the food of skunks con.
sisted of these grasshoppers.
Some of the most destructive in
sects in agriculture are such as do
their work below ground and out of
reach of any method that the farmer
can apply, and it is against many Of
these that the skunk is an inveter-
ate enemy. Notwithstanding all Of
this, there is probably not an animal
that is as ruthlessly slaughtered as
Is this one, whereas it is equally en-
titled to protection with, if not more
so, than SINE of our birds which en-
joy this privilege.
In some regions, especially in the
Southwest, the bite of the skunk is
supposed to produce hydrophobia.
This fear is unfounded since it is
provided that the bite of healthy
skunk Is no more serious than SINH
lar wounds caused by other agencies.
In connection with the work of the
range caterpillar investigations in
northeastern New Mexico it has been
found that skunks destroy great
many Of the pupae (chrysalis) 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
Ceptember 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 acres from rs to rs per
cent of the pupae had been carried
off, while in few isolated places as
high as IS per cent of the Hemileuca
(Mexican range caterpillar) pupae
were gone. Following these obser-
vations, piles of skunk excrement
were found which consisted in some
cases almost entirely of pupae shells.
Subsequent counts made show the
excrement found to have from 60 to
95 per cent of it's contents consist
ing of these crushed shells.

SUPREME COURT
SUSTAINS ACT OF
LOWER TRIBUNAL

The supreme court. handed down a
decision this morning, written by As
sociate Justice Watson, and concurred
in by the other members Of the
bench, in the case of Lee Lun Va.
William Henry, as high sheriff OF the
territory. The lower court had grant
ed the defendants motion for a non
suit, and il was upon this decision
that the plaintiff made his appeal.
The lower court was sustained.
The action was one in troyer, and
was based upon the seizure of prop
erty claimed as exempt. Three sew.
ing machines constituted the property
which was taken under a write Of at
tachment AS against the claim Of
the defendant. that the property was
exempt, the defendant contended that
soon after the levy the plaintiff be-
came bankrupt, and that the title
of the property was in the u. s. dis
triet court sitting in bankruptcy, and
that all questions concerning II were
in the exclusive jurisdiction of that
court. - - - -..- s..s. -
In the decision handed down this
morning, three points are made. The
first is that the debtors claims for
exemption is matter which pertains
to the administration of the bankrupt
estate over which the court In which
those proceedings are pending has ex-
elusive jurisdiction. The second one
Is that where q bankrupt claims prop
erty as exempt, he must show that

ed a bankrupt, as predicate To the
right to maintain troyer for its con-
version. And finally, that the burden
of proving an exemption is on the
party claiming it.

KUHIO HOPS TO

NEWEST RUMOR

Pledging, their support of him, and
warning him of what they call con-
spiracy among the Republicans and
Democrats to bring about his Eefeat
at the primary, a delegation from tae
newly organized Lahui political party
waited on. Prince Kuhio yesterday,
and beforetit left. it is said. the prince
had agreed to throw down the Re-
publicans4 and run under the Lahui
banner for delegate to congress.
The news of Kuhio's reported
flop" from the Republicans to the
Lahuis was passed around rapidly in
~ pol;tin~l ~ircl~~ +LiS -11r--i-~
One account has it that the prince
definitely agreed to be q Lahui, while
another one, which, is a little more
moderate and perhaps more credita-
BILE, is that he only tentatively or con-
ditionall9s accepted the offer.

to come over to the Lahuis to break
it up. Whether Kuhio had this al.
ready in mind when he issued his
statement in which he announced
himself as a candidate to succeed
himself to the deiegateship, is not
certain. but his silence on the ques.
ton of the ticket on which he would
run, which was commented on at the

add weight to the possibility that he
was thinking of the Lahuis when he
wrote the statement.
