Then the noncommissioned officer
continued:
The Frenchmen believed them
selves sure of their success, but our
lieutenant was ready for them. He
sent eight men ahead into the craters
and the fire of this little detachment
moved the enemy down when he
came on in close formation. In the
meantime our machine guns had been
brought into action and the French
were driven back in front and at our
flank
But the section of the trench for
which we fought had become useless
to us. We gave it up and slowly re-
treated, keeping the enemy at a re-
spectful distance by heavy rife fire.
For a short while the enemy took
possession of our destroyed ditch, but
he could not hold it. When we re-
took it by a counter-attack we found
1t filled with the bodies of dead

PEST OF RABBITS
Bunnies Said to be Overrunnii1g
Some Parts Of Hoosick

Resalaer county farmers are up in
arms against the ribbit pest, and a
delegation of them went to Albany
last week TO interview the countys
legislative representative With a view
to having all restrictions upon the
killing of rabbits removed. 1t is prob
able that a bill affording the farmers
the desired relief will soon be intro
duced.
One Of the delegation said his sec
ton was overrun by rabbits and the
depredations of the Dummies are be-
coming unbearable. Owing to the
present law, which restricts hunter
to the killing of five rabbits in one
day, the rodents are rapidly multi
plying and conditions are daily grow
ing worses. The use Of ferretss in
huting rabbits is permitted in some
parts of the state, while in Rensselaer,
county the practice is prohibited.
The farmers complain that the rab-
bits devour everything that Is green
in the edible line, beside many plants
that are not green, and that they at
tack young orchards, cherry and
plum trees and give them blighted
appearance. 1t is urged that the pro-
visions of the law should be suspend
ed for a time and war of extermina-
ton waged against the pests.
In the western part Of the town of
Hoosick the farmers thus far have not
suffered much loss from the depreda-
lions of the Dummies. Supervisor Jay
c. Cottrell says, however, that he no
tees a rapid increase in the number
of rabbits and frequently observes l
tree that has been gnawed by them.
On the other hand, Nathan Case.
whose farm is located on the West
hills not far from the village, says
there are no rabbits worth mentioning
to be found about his premises.
In the eastern part Of the town
rabbits are very numerous. Should
the restrictions of the game law be
many men now out of work,
and who are excellent huntsmen,.
could earn livelihood by shooting
habits and disposing Of them in the
local market at moderate prices.
They, as well as the farmers, would
welcome the removal of game law
restrictions -Hoosick Falls Demo.
