BELLAMY's IDEAS IN PRACTICE.
Cooperative Cooking Club Works
Well in Kansas.
From the Chicago Herald.
lotIor,r idao % no -o,,o,,,t;,,

From the Chicago Herald.
The Bellamy idea of cooperative house
keeping has had a thorough trial at
Junction City, Kan. and the results are
more than satisfactory. The organization
Of the Junction City Cooperative Cook
ing Club was brought about in peculiar
way.
One cold December morning three
prominent ladies of that town found
themselves without "hired girls. They
happened to meet, and each told her ex-
perience in failing TO Keep help. All Of
them HAD read Belldmy's books, and the
plans Of cooperative housekeeping
therein advanced by that author we're
considered IN detail
1t was a new idea and they believed
they could induce enough of the people to
Join the movement TO make il succeed.
They accordingly called their friends to-
gether and made an assessment Of $3.50
per head. and New Years morning this
new Bellamy Housekeeping Association
sat down to as fine a breakfast as anyone
could wish. Then the membership was
small, bat since that time forty families
have joined, and to-day it is the most
talked-about and popular institution in
Central Kansas.
