Ca, have demonstrated what is prob
ably the lowest possible daily cost Of
food. They live at an actual cost per
capita OF less than 10 cents day. OF
course this could not have been ac-
complished except through co-opera-
ton. Everything they consume ia
bought at wholesale in large quantities
and is cooked in the community. In
the community dining room tables are

wish to eat with the crowd are allowed
the privilege of purchasing company

Detroit Is learning that the Junior

schools Of the city. which at FIRST
thought was fine thing Is having
evil results. The mayor protests and
shows a condition that Is hardly bene-
fcial. The citizens OF these junior re-
publics, for example, ballotted recently
on such questions as these: Do you
favor city ownership Of the street rail-
way system at the appraised value Of
sl7,500.000? Do you favor the appro.
priation OF $4,000 for the erection
of another high school building? DO
you favor expansion? this involving
a discussion Of the Philippine ques-
tom But more than this the Junior
citizens" developed so rapidly az to
become lobbyists. Children were AK
ed to interview aldermen or school in
spectors to urge appropriations for
schools. In short, the Junior republics
did not confne themselves 10 theory,
but got into practical politics with a
unanimity and dispatch that was
something appalling. Tho Detroit

The busy bee at best gets day of
about as seldom as a country boy in
haying time, but the modern apiarist
has contriyed to make her even more
industrious than she is when left to
herself The orchards of the Sacra-
mento and San Joaquin valleys bios
som some months before the southern
sage brush. The bee-farmer, there
fore carts his bees about from place
to place as the seasons advance, and
thus, by keeping them busy nine
months Of the year. gets three crops Of
honey. The difficulty Of moving bees
during the active season is overcome
by travelling at night. AS the bees
help to pollenize the flowers and thus
produce superior fruit, the owners Of
the orchards regard them with favor.
In results the plan is even better than
that OF the enterprising farmer who
crossed his bees with firefiies SO that
they could work nights.
