SOCIALISM AND SKILL

Is it q fact that the cheif men,
ace of Socialism is against prop
erty? Proudhon declared that
property was theft; Karl Marx,
celebrating the idea with heavy
ratiocination, called for an "ex-
preparation of the appropriations.
A thrill of apprehension swept
through the so-called bourgeoisie
and ever since critics Of Social
ism have been obsessed with the
idea. But of late it has become
increasingly evident that Social
ism has another antagonist quite
as formidable and quite as fund
amentally opposed to its pro-
gram. 1t Is the workman who
may or may not have capital, but
who does possess an able mind
thoroughly informed and trained.
Curiously enough it Is the Soc
ialist who have grasped this fact
most completely. When the
Italian metal workers took over
the factories and set about oper-
ating them under the regime Of
industrial democracy, the Sec
retary Of the General Confedera-
ton Of Labor. Signor Baldesi,
spoke to the public reassuringly.
He did not say that the ancient
rights Of property would be re-
spected- The factories we're al-

Now that Senator Harding, the

and the French Foreign Office in

sent representatives to him ask

Horticultural Inspector Sets
Forth Advantages of Winter
Cultivation

(F. Z. Bailey, horticultural Inspector)
Now is the proper time to disc the
orchard. Fall discing in the orchard
accomplishes three things:
First, it reduces the fire hazard
during the late winter and the early
spring by incorporating the dead cover
crop with the soil,
Second, it reduces the possibility Of
tree injury through mice. The nests
are broken up and much of the shell
tering cover crop is chopped into the
soil.
Third, the soil is improved in phys
ical condition for the following seas
on by the admiXture of plant mater
ial. The plant food contained in the
cover crop is likewise more available
for the next growing season.
The orchard should be disced, in at
least two directions. If the last disc
ing is made at right angles to the de-
rection Of irrigation flow, the precipi-
Idblou u IIle WiAlJST IlOilIuS VIII DC
better conserved and the possibility
Of erosion will be reduced.
In many orchards there is allowed
to accumulate during. the summer
masses of hay and weeds about the
tree trunks. With the approach Of
winter, field mice frequently seek the
shelter of the dead hay at the trunks.
I Later the snow covers the ground and
the mice are shut off from their usual
food supply. Then they commence to
eat the bark of the tree trunk and
girdle the tree.
All litter should be removed from
the tree trunks and the soil loosened
with a hoe for radius of two to
three feet. If mice are known to be
present steps should be taken to pois-
on them in addition to taking the
above precautions.

Fruitvale Rabbit Drive will Start
at 10 a. m.-ShOtguns to
BE Used -1q.....S..

~. l.. Georgeson, County Agent)
Everything is propitious for fine
rabbit drive north of Richland in the
Fruitvale district, next Saturday, De-
cember 4th. The cold frosty weather
OF the past few days will cause the
rabbits to come out of the sagebrush
and congregate near cultivated land,
so that good sport can be expected by
the hunters that go out.
The drive. will start as soon after
9 a. m. as the line can be formed. The
line will be formed. on an east and
west road, that intersects the Fruit
! vie road, about two and a half miles
north of Richland. To get there, drive
north out of Richland on the main
road, follow this road as it turns west
and then north again, then continue
straight north along the pole line,
leaving the main road where it makes
its second turn west. Follow out the
pole line toward Fruitvale about two
miles, when you get that far you will
be able to tell the starting point by
the gathering crowd. Bring your own
lunch.
Through the cooperation of the
Washington Hardware and Furniture
company, ammunition will be sold on
the grounds at cost. Come and help
rid this section of the country of
destructive pest and enjoy yourself
at the same time.
The following rules will govern the
drive:
/. Strictly a shotgun drive. All
other firearms, barred.
2. Mounted men will be in charge
of drive. Obey their commands.
g.. Maintain a distance of 100 feet
apart until near end of drive.
