The socialist administration of Mil
waukee last spring announced that it
would demonstrate the practical work
ing of collective municipal ownership
by seeding thirty-five acres of pota
toes which we're to be furnished to
the poor at low prices. The yield of the
thirty-five acres, however, was only
$50 bushels These were sold and the
money turned into the city treasury,
but the city expended more than the
value of the yield in raising the crop.
