Samuel Hess Tate, of Pine Grove

been pestering his chickens, and
was considerably amazed to find not
skunk, but an even dozen in
the lair. He managed to kill all of
them. Two were coal black and
their pelts brought $15 each. The
other ten pelts were slightly mixed
but were worth $12 each. In addi-
tion Tate added to his day's work
by collecting the state bounty of $i
a head on skunks.
