Size: 7.5 x 5.1 x 0.8. With the victory of Socialism, the medical profession becomes a Utopia. The advancements and healthful life which socialism and medicine have provided, rather than the hideous conditions of the old order. The horse has been removed from the city and in its place automobiles which 'have been greatly improved and respond better to the demands of science,' serve as the primary mode of transportation. Educating the populace in all matters related to health is one of the common, and often repeated, elements of Noto's utopia. Food inspection laws and the cleanliness of the kitchen are other aspects of the advancements in food preparation. Electricity is used in the cooking of foods as well as in the washing, drying, and sterilizing of utensils used in eating. He also demonstrates and explains many other aspects of the healthful life of the citizens of the new order, from the ventilation of house, to the attitudes toward old age and death (and the adoption of cremation), to advances in radiology and microbiology.
