take its hands off the business of legi-

II University Farm, st. Paul.)
The mole has bad name among
gardeners, but according to F. L..
Washburn, zoologist with the univer-
sity's department of agriculture, it is
not SO bad as painted. Mr. Washburn
says:
"The mole belongs to a group of
animals which as a rule eat only in
sects and closely allied forms Of life,
rarely, if ever, touching vegetables.
Occasionally moles gnaw bulbs and
uproot plants in flower BEDS, and I
have seen a mole in captivity run it's
snout through pea pod and eat every
pea,5b but the bulk Of its food consists
of animal matter such as earth worms

"Now the gardener should remem-
Der that the white grub is one Of the
worst pests that the strawberry grower

grub may also kill large. tracts of
lawn. Therefore, anything that will
ELIMINATE the white grub should be
welcomed by the gardener. Berry
