hoped to harvest mr jacob grove started out on friday evening to walk over- his fields on his farm just south of hingwood as he passed through the buck wheat something moving through the crop close to hand engaged his attention on investigating with his foot by turning the growth asida he beheld a prettily striped black and white animal crouching low on the ground but even the beauty of the beast didnt tempt him to rush rashly forward and fondle it in his arms the little intruder which was none other than a good healthy canadian skunk in the full vigor of prime of lite repelled the gaze of the onlooker in its own peculiar way and although jacob moved with the alarcity of a base runner ho almost fainted in his attempt to rush where he could grab off a piece of pure atmosphere again as neighbors began to put down their windows and shut tho doors mr grove became fully obsessed with the magnitude of the encounter when ho sniffed his clothes tho cost liness of the whole affair began to dawn upon him also with no pro spect of using them again this was not all the problem of removing hla hair was evon more dlfflcunand for a time the situation was roally serious as he senced tho idea that his entire cop of alfalty might have to be shorn from his head jacob is now conscious or what tho poet meant when he said haste makes waste and wishes that he had taken tlmo to procuro a forty
