brings him, or will bring him this
fall, a szeable income. 1t is one, how
ever, that the majority of the people
Ill Barre and vicinity are content to let
well enough alone in. Mr.. Cutler has
devoted himself this summer to the
capturing of live skunks, and the rails
ing of these until such time as their
pelts will be in firstelass condition. BY
the manipulation of barrel balanced
on board he catches the skunks with
out injury to them or to himself, and
having caught them humps them into
yard especially prepared for them.
Al the present time he has ii in cap
tivity, and has his eyes on two or three
more in the neighborhood Strange as
it may seem, Mr.. Cutler asserts that
he has never been Inconvenience by
their scent in any Of his ventures
with them. Anyone that is bothered
by skunks might, with profit, get in
touch with Mr. Cutler.
