A peculiar thing is that not more than three or four porcupines have ever been seen in this country. O f all those who have seen the sam ple« o f the work done by the animals, there are none who have ever heard o f the'r doing such an extent o f dam age es reported in this case. Wood rats have never been known to peel any great number o f trees in a short period, even when in big colonies, and porcupines w ill live on one tree a whole winter. The supporters o f the porcupine theory say the wood rat theory is un tenable because wood rats have always been here and have never done any thing like it before, while porcupines are just coming into the country. They also say that the patches o f bark le ft along the skinned portion o f the tree are what the porcupine leaves to hang on by, while the wood rat needs none. Those who believe wood rats are do ing the work, say their nests will either be found in the tops o f the trees or in mounds in the earth nearby Neither one has been found in this in stance. Those who believe it is the work o f porcupines, say that the porkys will usually be found in the tops o f trees in which they arc working and believe that in this case the pests will be found hiding in some o f the big trees, which, on account o f their great height and thick foliage, would afford ideal hiding places. Only one person has reported having seen any porcupine work in this country before, and he reports that he had some fruit trees destroyed. There seems to be little doubt as to what the animals peel off the bark for. The concensus o f opinion seems to be that it is for the purpose o f eating the pulpy bark underneath the hard sur face, and the exhibit brought in shows that the pulp has been licked off to the wood slick and clean. Hamilton Veatch was in the city Saturday and reported that a large strip o f timber in his neighborhood has been peeled by some wild animal in The In d ies’ Aid o f the Presbyterian the same manner as the timber on the church will give a supper, at which Storey-Bracher tract. oysters w ill be served, on Friday o f C.
