We are no whit above the veri- est savage when it comes to the routine of our menage. We have to kill live meat, we must heave up roots from the ground, we must live as do the beasts, on flesh, on grasses. The bee can suck a blossom and within its body manufacture honey from the insipid water of the flower; the cow can manufacture milk from weeds; the horse can create strength from sun-dried slopes, and the goat can maintain a de- termined spirit within him from a tin can and a discarded broom, |, but poor, helpless man has to live by the stored energy of others. Maybe about the time there are more stomachs than there are sausages man will discover how to live as the thistle lives; all energy comes from the sun, all life thrives because of the sun, the weed knows how .to gather this energy direct and, in time, man may discover the secret.
