Each time the close scrutiny satisfied her and she would drop down and resume greedily bating the tender leaves of the young red clover? She was thin and shaggy. The three young groundhogs, eating the clover even more greedily than she, were the reason. This was the first time she had brought them up from the soft nest deepnn the earth. The young ones revelled in the warm sunshine the strange taste of what they were eating. They ranged farther away from their mother and the safety of the burrow unaware that danger lurked nearby. ' A couple of noisy croWs winged, their way overhead but the old groundKbg didn't pay them the slightest attention. She knew they weren't hawks who would bring death winging swiftly out of the sky for her young. She was getting full, yet she ate cm, her stomach starting to swell. A familiar sound jerked her upright and little quivers of deathly fear lanced through her small brain. The dog, her implacable enemy, was bounding down the field. He saw the red-chested 1 ' g r o u n d h o g a n d raced toward her. W i t h a s h r i l l whistle she scurried towards her burrow, her brood close at her rump. As her young nuzzled, the shrill yapping of the dog penetrated clearly to her. "listen to that fool pup yappin' his head off down by the creek. Hasn't got a brain in his head. Never be as good as his mother." The slatternly-looking woman leaned in the cabin door, ready to find fault with anything. "Yeah," her husband answered slowly, "She was all right, too bad she had to get killed on the railroad. Maybe I should get the .22 and go down and see what he's up to. If there's any groupdhogs down there they'll be eatin' the heart out of the young clover." "I'll go down, Dad" their young son cried. He grabbed a stick. "Bet he's got a big one cornered down there." « YOUNG Tad ran along by , the 1 stump fence until he reached the clover field. Climbing up on a stump he could see the pup down at the other end near the creek jumping around a small stonepile and barking furiously. "Bet he has one," he said aloud and started to run. "What you got, Tippy?" propping, on his stomach, he could see a! groundhog crouched in between the1 safety of twa large stones. Tad} poked his stick in as far as her could 1 but the groundhog only retreated | further. I "Sic him! Get him out, Tip," he1 urged the excited pup. 1 "Guess we'll have to move some I of these stones for you. Watch out now, or you'll get hurt." Tad began throwing stones aside. "Watch him. Tip." The pup saw the young groundhog and pounced on it savagely. For a few seconds he had a wntrgad from the In Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, and Pwn, rubber investigators of the 17. S. department of agriculture have reported.

The groundhog raced as fast as its short legs would go towards the safety of its burrow. "Get it! Get it!" Tad screamed hoarsely with excitement. "Get him, boy!" The pup was after it like a flash, his courage renewed. The escape of the groundhog was cut off only a few yards from safety.
