OTTAWA JOURNAL
Established 1880.
The Llano colonist. [volume] (Llano, Calif.) 191?-1937, 1922-07-29

selects a general manager. He selects hi,
I toremen for the various industries. and each
is selected carefully according to his ability
to do the work and to direct his men.
Each manager is. given free hand to run
his department, always with the supervision
OF the manager and board Of directors. in
order that his actions may not be contrary to
the collective welfare.
New industries are started from time 10
time as necessity demands. The object of
Llanos industries is to provide the Colony
with what it needs, rather than to make a
profit by selling the products. Production
for use is our slogan. Thus TO make its own
food, clothing and shelter, to provide as far
as possible every convenience and comfort
is the final object. To get as nearly as pos
sible to the source Of wealth, the Colony will
raise sheep for wool; cotton can be raised,
and the colonists can weave their own cloth
and make their clothing.
The Colony's timber lands are now fur
nishing hardwood and pine for its buildings,
its brick plant makes the necessary brick and
can make thing, hollow tile, etc. for its own
homes.
The farm and gardens Of the Colony have
provided the tables with most Of the good
things which nature offers.
Thus the three important problems are
easily solved.
The Colony now owns about 5000 acres
of land, some Of it Of very fair character,
varying from bottom land TO rolling land
and timber land. It intends to purchase a
total of 10000 acres, because the coIonists
realize that the movement is destined to grow
10 large proportions. several small commune
tiles probably will be settled on The land.
When the days work is done at 4:30,
each colonist has an equal opportunity 10
improve himself along many lines, such as
music. vocal training. languages, science,
agriculture, orchestra work, dancing, and
other diversions. Many Of these classes are
well attended, and all the colonists realize
the fact that to keep progressive they must
advance in knowledge. A radical in pol
tics and a conservative in everything else IS
out OF place in this community,
Llano's school system is as progressive as
the cooperative colony The children are

and industries are all owned by the collectiv-
ity; where each works for the other; where
each receives the same compensation for a
days work; where no member will accept
anything which any other member cannot
have on the same terms, if he desires it.
in short, imagine a place where the golden
rule is the only law imposed upon the COM
munity, and you are picturing the Llano CO.
operative Colony.
After eight years of work, Llano Colony is
rated in the commercial world as worth over
$250,000. But Llano's least asset is its com
merciaI rating. The fullness of life, the JOY
of living, the satisfaction of working, the
security for the future. the healthy environ
ment. the opportunity for education. the af-
lection of your fellowmen-these are priced
more, much more. than what the commercial
world calls success.
This colony now has something like thirty
industries, all collectively owned Among
these are: apiary, auto garage, building de-
partment, brick-making plant, blacksmith
shop. butcher shop. broom factory. crate
making factory, chicken farm, dairy with
about 20 milking cows and herd of thoro-
bred Holstein heifers, goat ranch. hog ranch.
with several hundred Duroc-J Jersey hogs,
sweet-potato storage houses, dressmaking.
grist mill, handle lathes. hotel, hospital, Ii
brary. steam laundry, land clearing. fruit or
chards, print shop, peanut butter factory.
magazine and weekly newspaper, picture
show and theater, wagon-making shop. cam
dy kitchen. shoe shop. harness shop, and
many other smaller concerns.
Then Llano's farms and gardens provide
the bulk Of the living for the colonists. the
farmers specializing on sweet potatoes, SUI
gar cane, peanuts, corn, beans. peas. ETC.,
while the gardens provide greens and gar
den truck for the table the year around.
The system Of government is exceedingly
simple. Stock is sold in the corporation at
one dollar a share. and only stockholders
are employed by the Colony. An agreement
Of employment is entered into between the
Colony as an organization and each individ-
ual Each member is employed at what
he best can do. or which needs most TO be
done. A board Of directors is selected each
year by the stockholders, which board in turn
