De Lavergne that “_cultivation spontaneously finds out the organization that suits it best_.”[57] He wished therefore to establish an Utopia of peasant proprietors in England and Ireland as a panacea for the evils which Free Trade in the first place, and mischievous legislation in the second place, had brought upon agriculture.
