of the German General Staff. Formerly
you knew the value Of such ACQUISITIONS, for
you yourself had the honor of being sub
jected to similar accusations. But now you
put your stamp Of approval upon Mr..
Malvy by collecting, for the government
of "National Defence" the reports of Mr..
Malvy's police spies. Moreover, my political
correspondence box contains a very recent
prison sentence pronounced against me,
during the war, by a German court in con-

Indestructible Hatred
But besides this brutal fact, that can
mako impression even upon the police
braincel of Mr.. Malvy, l should, l be-
ieve, emphasize that we revolutionary in
ternatlonalists moro dangerous enemies
of German reaction than all the govern
ments of the Allies taken together. Their
hostility to Germany is, at the bottom,
nothing but the hatred of the competitor;
our revolutionary hatred of it's ruling class
is indestructible. Imperalist competition
may again unite the rival enemy brethren
of to-day. When the total destruction of
Germany has been realized, England and
France, after decade would again ap-
in the friendliest spirit to defend them
selves against the superiority of Russia. A
future Poncare will exchange kilograms Of
congratulations with Wilhelm or with his
heirs; Lloyd George, in the peculiar Ian
guage of the priest and the boxer, will
curse and condemn Russia as the defend
ing wall Of barbarism and militarism; Albert

Kaiser, would be showered with flowers cut

All the banalities Of present-day speeches
and articles would again be unracked Mr..
Renaudel would have to change, in his
article, only the proper names, a task for
which his mental faculties and abilities
would doubtless suffice But we will remain
the outspoken, sworn enemies of Germany's
rulers that we day, for we hate
German reaction with the same revolution
ary hatred that we have sworn against
Czarism and against the French moneyed
arstocracy.

Attorney Miller make out a warrant
for the arrest OF Joe Woodcock, who

From Mr.. Chamberlain's own story
It Is learned that his grandson. Joe

home last Sunday and proceeded to
"beat up" the aged relative. The
old gentleman states that he was
sitting in a chair when Woodcock
whose 81 years have filled him full
of pep and muscle-first struck him.
That the said Joe Is full OF pep Is
attested by the fact that the old
mans eyes are more sombre than
usual.
Recently Mr.. Chamberlain suffer

through an automobile accident. and
speaking OF the affray Sunday he
said:
"It this here arm was all right 1t

Culling Poultry

Culling Poultry
Heavy egg laying is correlated with
certain visible or physical character
istics of the hen. This has been
demonstrated by studies Of trap
nest records OF individual hens. A
knowledge OF these characteristics
makes it possible, at certain seasons
OF the year, to Gull the poor layers oi
the flock with fair degree of accu'
racy.
Judging and culling by physica
characteristics is not as accurate as
the trap nest but Is possible to picl
out a large proportion OF the un
profitable hens in a flock by thi!
method.
Extension bulletin No. 800 o. A
