When she asked Mrs. McDermott how her chickens were doing Mrs. McDermott told her the coons had killed 25 hens about six weeks ago. The chickens were allowed to run loose in the grass and weeds and when Mrs. McDermott found some dead, she thought they must have been sick. She then discovered two young coons sit ting in her barn where she keeps her hens. She locked them in, and next morningthe screen was torn open and they were gone. Mrs. McDermott decided the mother came back for her young. Mrs. McDermott said she has not seen the coons since. Mg?
