TRIVIA
The Co-operative Brotherhood, a.k.a Burley Colony 1896-1906. This was a socialist colony of about 140 people. They had a large tract of land partly paid for which was held in trust for the members by an incorporated board. An entrance fee of $200 was required of residence members. All tools and equipment were owned in common as well as the land. Credit checks were issued for work and were redeemable in the company store and dining room. As in most communistic colonies the management was a dictatorship, although this had not been intended and it led to trouble. There was a reorganization in an attempt to escape this feature of communism but the community clung together scarcely a dozen years.
