I have a perl question for y'all, this program: 
#!/usr/bin/perl
my %days_in_month = (
   "Jan" => 31,
   "Feb" => 29,
   "Mar" => 31,
   "Apr" => 30,
   "May" => 31,
   "Jun" => 30,
   "Jul" => 31,
   "Aug" => 31,
   "Sep" => 30,
   "Oct" => 31,
   "Nov" => 30,
   "Dec" => 31 );

foreach $day (%days_in_month) {
   print "$days_in_month{$day} days hath $day\n";
}

[download]
gives this output: 
[ceidem@SHARPAM ~/src/perl]$ cal.pl
31 days hath Oct
 days hath 31
31 days hath Dec
 days hath 31
31 days hath Mar
 days hath 31
29 days hath Feb
 days hath 29
31 days hath Jan
 days hath 31
30 days hath Nov
 days hath 30
31 days hath May
 days hath 31
31 days hath Aug
 days hath 31
30 days hath Sep
 days hath 30
31 days hath Jul
 days hath 31
30 days hath Apr
 days hath 30
30 days hath Jun
 days hath 30
[ceidem@SHARPAM ~/src/perl]$

Where does the extraneous "days hath n" come from?

TIA,
