tude for the material and spiritual unfoldment
of humanity.

For many years, orators and agitators have vied with each other in
proclaiming that capital and labor were the two factors of financial
success. They were and still are mistaken. Within the pages of Solaris
Farm the reader is given the true formula, which may be algebraically
stated thus: "Capital + Labor + Brains = Financial Success." Financial
Success, however is not the complete product of these factors when
selfishness, greed and wasteful competition are eliminated from the
equation by the substitution of unselfish co-operation. The happy result
of the experiment at Solaris Farm must convince the reader of the
correctness of the formula and the value of the substitution.

In considering the broad field covered by this attractive book; its wide
departure from the mission of the ordinary novel, its probable use as a
text-book of advanced thought on true socialism, progressive
co-operation, a new order of political economy and the ways and means of
making colony life desirable, successfully coherent, self-supporting and
practically delightful; the price of Solaris Farm (50 cts, in paper
covers, $1.25 in cloth binding) will commend itself to the purchaser as
not only reasonably moderate, but also if he be an interested reader,
with business intentions, that the large end of the bargain is very much
in his favor.

Solaris Farm was written by Captain Milan C. Edson, whose military title
was earned during the great Civil War. He was a farmer and the son of a
farmer. He enlisted as a private soldier and without influence rose to a
captaincy by merit and bravery alone. He is a profound thinker, a lover
of his race and has given many years to the study of social and
political questions. It has been his desire to found a community where
his ideas of true success might be wrought out, as an object lesson to
the world, of the advantages of unselfishness. This pleasure having been
denied him, he has incorporated his leading ideas in Solaris Farm, in
the hope that some one more fortunate than himself may be able to
receive the blessings which must inevitably flow from such a noble life.
