To say that socialism Is impossible
In country that ut this moment

pretty risky statement, yet that Is
what We read in a serious French re-
view. Socialism will be impossible In

This Is the reason why there exists
an agrarian question, and why the
political world of France Is face to
face with fact--the conquest of the
peasantry. 1t is in vain that wildcat
political parties try to corrupt or win
the peasant population to follow the
flag of their own ambitions or their
triumph. The French peasant defes
the elements and laughs at the temp

his pipe. sows and tlls his field, rakes
and harrows his patch, reaps and
stores his harvest. and Is content.

words:

idea of being dspossessed under a

he was boy his father gave MIN thirteen

RABBIT PEST IN GENESEE VALLEY

looks upon the growth of the rabbit tribe
with apprehension, and II Is with good
reason. Many instances OF the work OF
the little pest have occurred lately. Only
short time ago damage TO the extent OF

farm. where the rabbits had intrenched
themselves along the fences and made
systematic raids on the pear trees there.
Gnawing away every vestice OF the bark
around the roots and killing not few

Practically all OF the valuable bismarck
apples have been destroyed on the founss

In burrowing into the cold storage Were
the holes left by accident any length OF

animals were killed at the storage pant
