AFTER THE WAR -WHAT?

Address by Rabbi Jos. Krauskopf, D. D.

President and Founder of THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

at
Farm School, Pa., September 26, 1915

Notwithstanding that this year of 191 5 is the darkest in the
history of civiHzation, the hearts of the directors of The National
Farm School, gathered once more in annual session to give an
accounting of the sacred stewardship entrusted to them, are filled
with joy.

DESTRUCTION In this oasis of nearly 400 acres, hope baffles

cREAm)N^^~ despair. Here, grief for a world destroying itself
HERE. gives way to joy in contemplation of a world re-

born— re-born to the pursuits of peace, re-born to human service
and to the development of all that is best in mankind. With the
rest of the world tearing down what has been built up, we, here,
are building up anew. With the rest of the world madly destroy-
ing the fruits of human labor, we, here, are creating new life, and
training those who are to lead it. With a myriad energies devoted
elsewhere to slaughter and death, we, here, are devoting our best
energies to the conservation of life. While the young men of an
entire continent are being sacrificed on the altar of the demon of
war, we, here, are training young men for blessed usefulness, con-
secrating them to a new priesthood of service.

Well for the world if it had actualized the

AGRICULTURE, , -nr 11 r 1 u

THE VOCATION visiou of the Jewish prophet! Well for the world
OF PEACE. j^ ^j^^ teaching of war had long, long ago ceased!

Well for the world if long, long ago, men had learned to live un-
der their own vines and fig-trees, with none to hurt, and none to
make them afraid — if, long, long ago, the spear had been fash-
ioned into pruning-hook and the sword beaten into plough-share !
Aye, well for the world if, instead of devoting itself to excel-
lence in the art of war, it had trained its youth as our students
are being trained, to excel in the highest vocation of peace! How

6 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

different, how much nobler and better for the future of mankind
would have been our modern civilization, had agricultural effi-
ciency been as highly prized by monarchs as military supremacy.
The world would not to-day have been a veritable Valley of the
Shadow of Death. Instead of world-war, we would have known
world-peace !

Sad, immeasurably sad, as this is, yet we draw
TURNING comfort from the signs of the time. Our young

men are turning from those vocations that bring
strife and contention, competition, envy and war. Our young
men are turning to the vocations that bring harmony and con-
tentment unto the world; that bring them in contact with God,
through nature.

None has better proof of the truth of this than we. The
large number of applicants — during certain periods of the year
not less than five a day — testifies to this gratifying truth. They
apply for admission to our institution from all parts of this
country, from all conditions and classes of the people, Jew and
Gentile, many of them students of high schools, some of them
of universities, and some of them coming to us after having fol-
lowed profitably other callings for a number of years.
CHANGE IN AVhat a mighty transformation in the world's

WORLD'S attitude toward agriculture we are happilv witness-

ATTITUDE ... . i r -

TOWARD ing! It is within the memory of all of us when

FARM. ^j^g farmer was the target of ridicule, the world's

yokel and clown, and his vocation the object of contempt and
disdain — when, if a young man of parts or means evinced a
leaning toward agriculture, his relatives and friends would fear
that his sanity was impaired. Even the sons of farmers regarded
their parents' calling as low and unworthy, and rushed pell-mell
to the city. The feeble-minded, the homeless, the failures — for
these the farm. At least, so thought the world.
FARMER But, happily, the world has grown wiser; the

PET°oF^^ city is losing its lure. The farmer, to whom the

NATION. automobile-maker looks for his best customer, and

the author for his most discriminating reader, is coming into his
own. The world has begun to respect, yea, even to envy him
who maketh his own abundant bread by abundantly supplying
bread for others. No longer the world's yokel and clown, he is

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 7

the world's best, most useful citizen. No longer held in contempt,
his vocation has become the ambition of the city-jaded. We sum-
mon the merchant prince, the captain of industry, the manufac-
turer and the banker, to confess the secret yearning of their
hearts ! We summon these to acknowledge before the world the
longing to abandon the department store, the factory, the mill,
the counting-house, to flee from all the dollar-making machinery
with its strife, turmoil, and spiritual degradation, and seek peace
and contentment on the farm !

And in none is this secret longing so strong as

LONGING FOR , ^ . ,

FARM STRONG amoug the Jews, falsely regarded as fanatic devo-
IN JEW. ^^^g ^£ Mammon. Scrutinize the rosters of all the

agricultural departments of all the universities in the United
States, and witness the large number of Jewish names.

Here is the proof of our assertion: many of these Jewish
young men, studying agriculture at the universities, are so en-
gaged because their city-jaded. Mammon-sickened fathers look
forward to the day when their sons' ability to manage a country
estate will make it possible for them to gratify that secret longing
that is in their hearts ; others, because the father, having realized
the futility of all that spells "success" in the city, would dedicate
the son to that vocation whose usefulness is supreme and still
others because, early in their scholastic life, they themselves have
felt the call of soul to the soil.

It is "the call of the soil" that is summoning young men to
the agricultural schools. And to none is that call stronger, and
none are more eager to respond than those Jewish lads whose
early youth has been spent in poverty, whose early environment
has been the tenement street. Happy the lad whose parents'
means enable him to gratify his laudable ambition!
MANY UNABLE But what of the youth without means? Shall

LONGING. be naught more than vam longmg? It is no an-

swer to say: "If he wants to become a farmer, let him become a
farmer." Agriculture is an exact science, not a haphazard voca-
tion. It is no longer necessary to prove this axiom. The world
realizes it. And where can these eager, worthy, resourceless
young men gain the ability to respond to "the call of the soil" if
not at The National Farm School?

8 THE NATIONAL FARAI SCHOOL

The Jewish young men of the cities know this, and they
would flock here by the thousands if only we could receive them.
For all the happiness this institution gives us, it brings to us also
a large measure of grief, as we witness the tragedy mirrored in
the faces of those to whom we are compelled to deny admission —
merely because we lack the room and the funds.
ONLY 18 PER At the last admission of the new Freshman

APPLICANTS class, only i8% of the candidates could be entered.
ADMITTED. The Other 82% had to be turned back, though they
possessed every required qualification. Consider w^hat this means
to the Jewish people. Consider what this means to our beloved
Republic.

82 PER CENT, What does the future hold in store for those

back\^ whom, with reluctant hands, we were compelled,

GHETTO. by forcc of necessity, to bar from our institution —

to consign back to the misery, to the soul-destruction of the tene-
ment street ? In our daily newspapers we find the answer.- What
would the future have meant to them had we the room to house
them, and the means to train them? Let the career of just a few
of our graduates, culled at random, be the answer:
INSTANCES OF Mauricc J. Mitzmain is one of the experts in

GRADUATEs^^ Entomology of the Federal Department of Agri-
succEss. culture. His researches and successful diagnosis

of the life and action of types of insects, that prey upon fruit
trees and upon cattle, have contributed valuable additions to the
science of Orcharding and of Animal Husbandry.

Bernard Ostrolenk is the director of the Agricultural De-
partment of the State High School, of Canby, Minn. This type
of Agricultural High School in Minnesota and other States is
modeled after the curriculum of The National Farm School.

Morris Salinger has recently been selected from a large
number of applicants, by the Jewish Colonization Association,
of Paris, to become the director of its Jewish Agricultural Colo-
nies n the Argentine Republic.

Charles Horn is assistant superintendent and instructor of
the Vacant Lots Cultivation Association, of Philadelphia. Meyer
Goldman is in charge of the boys' and girls' gardens in the
Jewish Farm Colony, at Norma, N. J. Sam S. Rudley is in-

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 9

stinictor in agriculture and horticulture for the Board of Public
Education, of Philadelphia. Joseph H. Wiseman holds a similar
position under the Board of Education, of Pittsburgh. Harry
Weiss is instructor in agriculture for the Jewish Foster Home,
of Philadelphia.

Twenty-nine graduates of the School are cultivating their
own farms in eight different States. When it is considered that
few if any of our students have the means to purchase a farm
when they graduate, that they have to work for others until they
earn enough to buy farms for themselves, this record of twenty-
nine of them owning their own farms, a few years after their
graduation, is a proud achievement.

Twelve of our graduates are taking Post-Graduate Courses
in various agricultural colleges.

Sixty-six of the graduates are managers of farms and es-
tates, herdsmen, dairymen and orchardists, in nineteen different
States.

The percentage of graduates of The National Farm School
who are in agriculture today is 83% — probably the best showing
of any secondary technical institution of the class of The National
Farm School.

Of those who are not now in agriculture, quite a number
gave up the calling on account of domestic affairs, a death or
illness making it imperative for them to take up immediately the
work of the head of the family. Even those who are not follow-
ing an agricultural calling have, by virtue of the outdoor life and
training received during their instruction at the Farm School,
developed the kind of physical and mental strength and the love
of labor that makes for success in any calling. Some of them
feel themselves only temporarily out of agriculture, and have
expressed their hopes some day to return to their chosen calling.
Others of those who have received instruction at the School, but
who are not in agriculture, are engaged in allied trades. Some
who have shown efficiency in handling machinery while at th^
School have become engineers. Others have contributed inven-
tions to applied electricity. Though we cannot count these among
our agricultural graduates, we are, none the less, proud of th-'n
and their achievements.

others hurled back to the Ghetto, instead of being admitted where
they might become a credit to themselves, their people, their
country, to revive in themselves and in their posterity that sturdy
race from which sprang the prophets, lawgivers, bards, to whom
the civilized world still does homage?

^TTTT r,T70TTTrrc Cato Cttdcd hls evcrv address to the Roman

BELIEVED. q£ ^ century to punctuate many of my public ad-

dresses and private conversations with the slogan : "Back to the
Soil." It has become my fate to be like another Cassandra, fore-
telling misfortune, if this call be not heeded, yet not believed
until it is too late.

"Back to the Soil," I pleaded, when signs that could not be
mistaken foretold the consequences of the great inrush of refu-
gees from the Russian pogroms of the early '8o's. "Visionary"
and "dreamer" were the least of the epithets hurled upon my
devoted head. But there grew up the horrible ghetto that
curses Jewish life in America, and a chain of hospitals and sana-
toria and relief societies and asylums and corrective institutions,
that drain our philanthropic resources to the uttermost limit, that
make charity a burden, not a joy. If the millions herded in the
foul tenements, if the millions chained to the sewing machines of
the sweatshops, had been scattered far and wide over the vast
acres of America, we would to-day have had hundreds, aye, thou-
sands of small Jewish rural communities, self-reliant, nobly pro-
ductive, abounding in health, in happiness, in spiritual exaltation.

the avenues of traffic be re-opened, and there will be an exodus
from Europe unparalleled in history. I have no fear that the
gateway to this blessed Republic will be barred to them — I believe

traditions : that this country is, and always shall be, the haven
and refuge for suffering mankind. The gateway will be opened

wide. They will come! Then what? Let me be no longer a
Cassandra. Prepare, American Jewry! Prevent the super-
congestion of the present tenement districts! Prevent the up-
rearing of new tenement-monsters ! Lead our people to the soil —
to the land where will flow milk and honev!

"Ah!" responds the wiseacre, "But the Jews are unfit for
farming!" "Ah!" responds the "experienced" philanthropist,
scrutinizing his catalog of results, "See how many Jews have
failed as farmers! It can't be done!"

No, indeed, it cannot be done, if the old mis-

FAILURE, ii must be learned, it must be taught ! The colon-

ies that failed foundered on the rock of ignorance — a two-fold
ignorance; that of philanthropists, who did not know what was
needed to ensure the colonies against failure, and ignorance of
the very rudiments of agriculture on the part of the colonists.
Leaders trained to train others to become successful farmers
were lacking. And unless the new immigration is supplied with

such leaders, its attempts to establish itself on the soil are fore-
doomed.

WHAT MAKES Jcwish agricultural colonies, to be successful,

FUL coLON^^' "^^^* ^^ made up principally of young men, trained
iZATioN? in an institution such as The National Farm School,

where instruction is given in the practice and science of agricul-
ture, and where the course of instruction keeps especially in mind
the needs of the Jewish immigrant.

When the Scandinavians and the Germans came to settle in
our country as colonists, they succeeded, for the most part, be-
cause they came from the farm and luent to the farm. Jewish
colonists, to succeed, must proceed along the same line. They
must proceed from the farm school to the farm, the work of which
they have studied and the life of which they have learned to love.
These trained young men will gather around them on their farms,
members of their respective families, and others ; and, in time,
they will build up, in various parts of our country, agricultural
settlements of considerable size. Their trained brawn, added to
the proverbial Jewish brain, will help them to make all the greater

12 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

success of their undertaking. Owners of vast lands in Texas and
California and other States are ready to turn over suitable tracts
for colonization purposes, and build homes and barns and stables
upon them, and equip them, if properly trained agriculturists can
be gotten to occupy them.

*«r.rTTAWTnAT To assure yet more such success, there should

AMECHAI7ICAL •' '

DEPARTMENT be Started at The National Farm School a Mechan-
ics' Department, in which should be taught car-
pentry, masonry, bricklaying, plumbing, concrete construction,
farm engineering, and the use of gas and electrical machinery.
Not that the students are expected to become experts in each of
these branches, but to become sufficiently skilled in handicrafts
which are indispensable in an agricultural colony.

There must also be started a department where
DEPARTMENT girls may be instructed in agricultural branches —
NEEDED. j^ dairying, poultrying, trucking, bee-culture, horti-

culture, and general rural household economy — in order, subse-
quently, to become helpful wives of graduate colonists of The
National Farm School. Accustomed to rural life, they will be-
come not only helpmates of their husbands, but also valuable
assets in making farm work eminently profitable.
HOW It is self-evident that such a school should ac-

iNCREASED commodatc at least soo students. Means would,

£XP!ENS£

MIGHT BE therefore, be required to erect, besides additional

dormitories, a new Domestic Hall (for the en-
larged dining and culinary department), a Mechanics' Hall, a
larger dairy, additional green-houses and class rooms. Of course,
there would also be required additional farm lands.

The buildings could be erected at a considerably less expense
than ordinarily, because our students are trained to take part in
all building construction.

But where is the money to come from for such a needed,
larger, fuller plant?

After the erection of the necessary buildings, and acquisi-
tion of increased acreage, and a student roll many times as large
as the present, $100,000 would be needed annually to run the plant.

One of the National Jewish Orders would be the best fitted
organization to make possible such needed enlargement of The

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 13

National Farm School. It would start with a splendid nucleus
(The National Farm School having a property value of some
$150,000, entirely free from debt, and, in addition, a Sinking
Fund of nearly $100,000, and an annual income of some
$40,000).

Each of the districts of such a fraternity could erect and
equip one of these needed additional buildings, and name it after
its respective district.

After these buildings shall have been erected and equipped,
each district could maintain a certain number of scholarships, to
be granted to students hailing from their respective territories.

Members of districts of such fraternities, living near Thf
National Farm School, could represent their respective district
on the local board, while members of the other districts, living at
a distance, could serve on the National Auxiliary Board.

But, conceding that it would not be an easy matter for one
organization to assume the maintenance of an institution like The
National Farm School, it should not be difficult for the many
Jewish organizations, which have as their object the amelioration
of the immigrants' condition, to make it possible for The National
Farm School to attain its highest measure of usefulness.

If all the Jewish orders would levy a small tax of not more
than five cents upon each member for this purpose ; if the Federa-
tions of Jewish Charities would each of them vote a certain per-
centage of their income; if the Union of American Hebrew Con-
gregations and each individual congregation would grant us a
certain annual subvention, the necessary sum would be raised
without difficulty. So distributed, the contribution of each organ-
ization would be relatively small. The results, however, would
be increasingly great. Year by year, the present need for palli-
ative philanthropy, for emergency relief, would grow smaller and
smaller, until, finally, we might close the doors of some institu-
tions whose demands to-day seem imperative.

I do not delude myself with the hope that this plan will be
taken up at once. We are entirely too conservative in our philan-
thropic outlook promptly to recognize the value of a suggestion
so thorough-going, so preventive, and yet so comparatively easy
as this.

14 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

FAILURE OF Meanwhile we appeal to those of our philan-

MERE PALLIA- ^^ ^

TivE CHARITY thropists, who have already learned to what a large
STIMULATE extent palliative philanthropy is sheer waste; who
PREVENTIVE havc already learned the futility of attempting to
THROPY. heal after putrefaction has set in ; of trying to rem-

edy after demoralization has begun. We appeal to them to make
our plan a reality now, while there is yet time. Let them begin
an era of creative, constructive philanthropy. At no time could
this be done more opportunely than at the present.

DEFICIT *= \

DURING THE during the past winter, and to large collections
PAST YEAR. having been made for war sufferers, our annual in-
come decreased some $4000, making a total deficit for the year of
$6209.03.

To make matters worse, the State of Pennsylvania found
itself obliged, on account of insufficient funds in its treasury, to
reduce all State appropriations by ten per cent. This unfor-
tunate circumstance clipped from our allowance $1000. And
our local Federation of Jewish Charities was likewise obliged to
lessen its appropriation to us by $100 quarterly.

To add yet more to our financial burden, so great was the
pressure on us for admission of applicants to our School, that we
were obliged to enroll a larger number of students than ever be-
fore, crowding hallways and garret and outlying farm buildings.

And, at the present time, we are facing an expenditure w^hich
we have all too long deferred, but which can no longer be put off,
the installing of a new sewage disposal plant, which will involve
an expense of over $3000, increasing our deficit.
FRIENDS IN B'^t' ^s has happened on previous occasions,

NEED. when we found ourselves in a financial crisis, kind

Providence came to our aid by sending to our rescue a number
of helpful friends. Foremost among these we must mention:

Mr. M. Lasker, of Galveston, Texas, who notwithstanding
his life-membership of many years ago, voluntarily added a dona-
tion of $2000, in appreciation of the good work done by our
School. Another helper was Mr. Alfred Benjamin, president of
the Federation of Jewish Charities, of Kansas City, who gave us
$500 toward the imperatively needed new building, notwithstand-
ing an annual contribution by the Federation of his city. He

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 15

volunteered, moreover, to pay an additional personal annual sub-
scription of $50. And his brother, Mr. David Benjamin, learning
that the Federation of Jewish Charities, of Kansas City, found
itself obliged, by reason of insufficient income, to reduce its an-
nual contribution to The National Farm School from $350 to
$250, made a personal subscription of $50 to cover a part of the
reduction.

Others w^ho came to our relief during the past year were:

We are also happy to announce that we have just received a
Decatur Motor Truck, the gift of Mrs. J. Isenberg and sons,
Roman Automobile Company, which will prove most serviceable
in the disposal of products of our farms, and enable us to obtain

16 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

better prices than we otherwise can. A few more of such trucks
would prove of inestimable value to the School, and yearly in-
crease its income.

Our Local Federation of Jewish Charities, until its recent
deduction of $ioo quarterly, has allowed us $8500 annually.

The directors of the Philadelphia Federation keenly regret
the necessity of reducing their subscription to us, as well as to its
other beneficiaries. We appeal here to the friends of The Na-
tional Farm School to increase their subscriptions to our Federa-
tion and to assist the Membership Committee in enrolling new
mernbers, so that our Federation can, in turn, not only restore
the original grants to its fourteen beneficiary societies, but offer
nee;ded increase for the efficient management of these institutions.

Members of the Appropriations Committee of the Legisla-
ture of the State of Pennsylvania have expressed their pro-
found regret that they were obliged to lessen the State's annual
grant to us. There is no institution in the State, they assured us,
to which they would rather afiford aid than ours, that has for its
object the training of lads, irrespective of creed, from all sec-
tions of the country, especially from the congested centres of our
large cities, in the practice and science of agriculture for agri-
cultural callings, and giving them, during their three or four
years' course, not only their education, but also their board, lodg-
ing, clothing and other necessities, free of charge.

Some years ago the Hon. Edward S. Stuart, Governor of
our State, was visited by the president of this institution, and
asked to give favorable consideration to the Farm School's appli-
cation for State aid. "The State," said Governor Stuart, "ought
to come to such institutions as yours and offer voluntarily its aid,
and all it can possibly afford to give, instead of your coming
here to ask it."
FARM SCHOOL This friendly attitude toward our School by

TO STATE '^h the State omcials is the best answer to those

NOT^ADUPLi ^'^''^°' i-i^^" formed, frequently raise the charge
CATE OF IT. against us that there is no need for an agricultural
school like ours, seeing that all the different States support agri-
cultural schools of their own. It is true that our State College
has a most excellent agricultural department. And what is true
there, is, to a large measure, true of the agricultural departments

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 17

of all the other State colleges. But it is not true that any one of
them does the work that is done at The National Farm School.
Theirs is a college, requiring a completed High School course for
admission. Ours is a High School, requiring a completed gram-
mar school course for entrance. They are institutions which,
even if tuition be wholly or partly free, require the students to
provide themselve with board, lodging and clothing ; we give our
students everything free. They gather the students, for the most
part, from those capable of helping themselves; we give prefer-
ence to orphan lads, to poor, but capable immigrant lads, or sons
of immigrants, many of whom often are unconversant with the
vernacular. They gather largely farmers' sons, who enter to
receive advanced or special agricultural instruction, whilst ours
come to us wholly unacquainted even with the rudiments of farm
work, many of them never having even seen a fa.rm before they
enter our School. While little or no practical work is done at the
State colleges, in our School the practical work goes hand in hand
with the theoretical, all of our work, from seed time to harvest,
being done by our pupils, while at the colleges the practical work
is done by hired men. In fact, some of our graduates, who have
entered State colleges after leaving us, have made their living
by doing the practical work for which men are generally hired at
the colleges.

RECORD OF The Director's Report will speak in detail of

THE YEAR. the work accomplished at the School during the
past year. One hundred and twenty-nine students were instructed.

The dairy produced over 147,000 quarts of milk, most of which was
supplied to hospitals and institutions in Philadelphia.

The orchards produced 1,500 baskets of peaches, 600 bushels of
apples and 75 bushels of pears.

The farms produced:

170 tons hay 150 bushels onions

20 tons straw 200 bushels potatoes

10,000 bundles corn stover 10,000 heads cabbage

1,700 bushels of corn 5,000 ears sweet corn

100 bushels rye 100 baskets lima beans

100 bushels wheat 1,000 bunches asparagus

350 tons silage 50 tons mangels

Besides this, we filled our four large silos with 442 tons of silage.
The Horticultural Department sold over $1000 worth of products.

18 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

IMPROVE- Many improvements have been made to our

plant during the past year, especially on the Flora
Schoenfeld Memorial Farms. On Farm No. 3, another tract of
land of eight acres, was underdrained and reclaimed, making
a total of added valuable lands to this farm, during the past two
years, of ten acres. A new water system has been installed
on this farm, giving a surer, safer, and purer water supply.

On Farm No. i an addition has been built to the barn, a new
silo has been erected, and a new milk room built.

On the Home Farm a new Hall Incubator System, which
hatched over 3000 chickens this year, has been installed.
MOST URGENT The report of the Director will show in detail

NEEDS. the numerous needs of the School. We are work-

ing with inadequate room for the Chemical Department, the
Physical Department and the Study of Bacteria, Zoology, and
Entomology. Two years ago we added an entirely new Biologi-
cal Department to our institution, but this department is home-
less. Our laboratories have long ago outgrown the space allotted
to them, and our class rooms have been inadequate for years.
We are still pleading for a Domestic Hall. In our Department of
Agriculture we need a class room so constructed that the study
and judging of farm animals, large and small, may be made pos-
sible. Considering the limitations under which our faculty labors,
the achievements which we are, nevertheless, able to record, speak
volumes for their zeal and enthusiasm.

During the last year we lost one of our oldest

OP THE and staunchest friends, Mr. Ralph Blum. At a time

when the friends of our School were few, when few
men grasped the significance of agricultural training, and of the
return to the soil as a solution of some of our vexing social prob-
lems, when the possibility of success was questioned, even denied,,
when failure was predicted for it, when the prophets did their best
to prove their prophesies true by denying the School their aid, and
by discouraging others from helping it, it was then that our de-
parted friend bravely stepped to its aid, resolutely espoused its
cause, pressed it to the fore with his characteristic zeal, gave to
its upbuilding liberally of his time and labor and means, and con-
tinued working for it and watching over it, until he felt that it

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 19

had progressed sufficiently to be able to shift for itself. At our
spring meeting, last June, we planted a tree in his memory upon
these grounds which he loved so dearly. We deeply regret that
the financial status of our School makes a more substantial memo-
rial impossible.

EXPRESSIONS ^^^^ ^^^^^^ ^° express our thanks to both the

OF THANKS. Board of Directors of the School and the Ladies'
Auxiliary Board. These ladies and gentlemen have been untiring
in their unselfish efforts in behalf of the School and the young
men who are under their care. No labor is too hard for them,
no call upon their time too great, where the interests of the
School and its students are concerned. Thanks are also due to
our efficient office force, upon whose interest in the work so much
depends, as long as the School needs to continue its numerous
and expensive propaganda to raise funds for its maintenance. We
cannot praise too highly the work and efficiency of our faculty and
our matrons. The reports of the separate departments of the
School will indicate how earnestly and successfully the members
of the faculty and the matrons are doing their duty. We express
our appreciation to the speakers who assisted in making our spring
exercises so unusually successful last June, and to the men who are
with us on the platform to-day.
HELPING FARM 'p|^g demands upon our people for the relief

SCHOOL SANEST ^ f f

ANSWER TO of war sufferers have not abated. Nor should they
"AFTER WAR ^'^^'^ upou deaf ears and hearts of stone. In all
-WHAT?" sincerity, we say to the Jews of America: "Give —

give — give to the helpless victims of the world's insanity."

Our School itself has given much, very much, to that urgent
cause. It withdrew its field secretary, Mr. A. H. Fromenson,
from his propaganda work in our behalf, and loaned his valuable
services to the American Jewish Relief Committee for many
months, and left the field entirely to the latter organization for
its needed work. This transfer of our field secretary meant a
loss to the Farm School of a number of thousands of dollars.
Its increasing deficit necessitates our re-entering upon our propa-
ganda work, and as much in the interest of the Jews suffering
abroad as of our brethren crowded in the cities of our own land.

As soon as released from the trap of the contending armies,

20 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

vast numbers of European and Asiatic Jews will turn to us for
help and opportunity. Many of them will come stripped of all.
There will be no room for them in the congested cities, no chance
in the sweat-shops of the ghetto. There will, however, be
abundant room for them on the farm. They will meet with scanty
courtesy in the cities ; a whole-hearted welcome will await them
on the broad and fertile acres of our land. They will come, bowed
low by memories of past cruelties and suffering; they will build
up a new spirit, a new vigor, a new future, behind the plow.

Our noble President Wilson, in his memorable Address of
Welcome to four thousand newly Naturalized Citizens in Phila-
delphia, emphasized this truth — that of leaving all other countries
behind "to better the ideals of men, to make them see finer
things than they had seen before. . . . You were drawn
across the ocean," said he, "by some beckoning finger of hope, by
some relief, by some vision of a new kind of justice, by some
expectation of a better kind of life."

How better realize their hope, their soul's agonized needs,
than to prepare early for their coming by scientifically utilizing
God's broad and sunny acres, making thus a home for them,
where that which is best in the soul can be grown as well as that
which is best in the soil.

The National Farm School can be a medium for such
much-desired and much-needed transformation. Help The Na-
tional Farm School, and you will help thousands of Jews who
are in direst need of answering the call "Back to the Soil," and
hundreds of thousands more who shall need to answer that call in
the very near future.

Help The National Farm School, and you give the sanest
and godliest answer to the question, "After the War — What?"

THE FOURTEENTH GRADUATION EXERCISES

March io, 191 5.

Of the sixteen students graduated by The National Farm
School on March loth, twelve entered immediately upon agri-
cultural positions offered to them; one assumed control of his
own farm ; two departed for the Ohio State Agricultural College
for special studies in animal husbandry and horticulture, and
one remained for the post-graduate course.

Louis I. Helfand was awarded a post-graduate certificate
for a second year in farm management.

N

Diplomas were awarded to:

Israel Bautman, Philip Light, Frank Seligman,

Samuel Davidson, Charles R. Nussbaum, Max Semel,

Elmer Klein, Henry Ross, Harry Shor.

The following received certificates:

Morris Burton, Jacob Finkel, Samuel Lechner,

Dr. Krauskopf presided at the exercises, and Professor
Wheeler, Associate Superintendent of the Philadelphia Pub-
lic Schools, made the principal address. Other speakers were:
Superintendent Hoffman, of the Bucks County Schools, and
Principal Ross, of the Doylestown High School. The baccalau-
reate address was delivered by Mr. Horace Stern.

The George F. Hoffman prizes for essays on "Why I Want
to Be a Farmer" were awarded as follows: First prize, Charles
Nussbaum ; second prize, Nathan Magram ; third prize, Maxwell
Barnett. The Massinger prize in veterinary was awarded to
Henry Ross.

The graduation exercises were preceded by a meeting of
the Executive Board, at which Dr. Krauskopf eulogized the
memory of the late Ralph Blum, of Philadelphia, who was one
of the founders of the school and served it seventeen years as
an active director. The exercises closed with a dinner, at which
the graduates were the guests of the directors.

22 THE NATION'AL FARM SCHOOL

THE SPRING EXERCISES

JuxE 6, 19 1 5.

The Annual Spring Festival of The National Farm School,
held on the grounds of the School, at Farm School, Bucks
County, Pa., on Sunday, June the 6th, was pronounced by the
more than eighteen hundred participants, who came to the School
from far and near, the most successful and brilliant public func-
tion in the long line of successful affairs in the history of the
School. The throngs that gathered at the various railroad way
stations were so great that it was necessary to run two special
trains from Philadelphia to the School.

Beginning with an impressive dedicatory ceremony, held in
a grove of stately trees, the exercises included the consecration
of 128 memorial trees and 39 festive trees; the dedication of a
handsome pergola in the School's nurseries in memory of Joseph
E. Oppenheimer, of Philadelphia ; .tours of inspection over the
vast farm lands cultivated by the students of the School; and
closed with the presentation of an elaborate historical Biblical
pageant on the campus.

The guests of honor were the Hon. Samuel Kalisch, Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court of New Jersey, who presided;
Mr, Maurice Wertheim, of New York, who administered Jewish
relief in Palestine at the outbreak of the war, under the direc-
tion of the Hon. Henry Morgenthau, U. S. Ambassador to Tur-
key; Ben Yehudah, the father of the rebirth of Hebrew in Pales-
tine and pioneer of the new colonization; Dr. Ernest Lacy, of
Philadelphia, Professor of English Literature and author of
distinction; Mr. Louis Wolf, president of the Federation of
Jewish Charities, of Philadelphia ; and Attorney Milton D. Green-
baum, of Baltimore.

Dr. Joseph Krauskopf , president and founder of the School,
delivered the opening address.

Justice Kalisch, the presiding officer, declared that the boys
of the Farm School have before them great opportunities to add
to the wealth of the world and to become the sustainers of the
nation.

To Mr. Wertheim fell the duty of installing the Freshman
-class of thirty-two boys. Mr. Greenbaum paid a special tribute
to Rev. Dr. Adolf Guttmacher, late rabbi of the Baltimore
Hebrew Congregation ; while Mr. Louis Wolf told of the work
of the late Ralph Blum, who was the first vice-president of the
Farm School.

Dr. Ernest Lacy, in consecrating the memorial and festive
trees, spoke of the countless blessings bequeathed to us by the
noble dead — our poets, scientists, reformers in religion and gov-

THE NATIOXAL FARM SCHOOL 23

emment, and last, but not least, the thousands of unknown dead
who gave their all for the common weal.

"What need in death, have genii of the brain, those homeless palace
builders? No earthl}' reward, truly, unless they have the power of looking
on the world, as they may be looking on us today, and know how well they
wrought and that their brave deeds are commemorated by a grateful people.
And is it not an appropriate as well as a beautiful custom to plant trees to
the memory of departed spirits? Of all things that grow trees are, in truth,
the aptest symbols of strong and beneficient souls ; and alas ! our treatment
of the forests is the aptest symbol of man's ingratitude to his benefactors.

"There is an old Latin maxim, 'Nothing but good of the dead,' to which
Heinrich Heine has added 'and nothing but evil of the living.' Truly, I
have long held that, if we must be forgetful, let us be forgetful of the
past; if we must be merciless, let us be merciless to those who have ceased
to be. It is true that they can not defend themselves, but it is also true
that between us and them Death has interposed his shield invincible to
earthly points.

"Above these two beautiful ceremonies, however, he placed the trans-
planting from deadly environment of human bodies and the nourishing of
them to fullest growth — the chief aim of The National Farm School."

In closing his speech he praised highly the great work al-
ready accomplished by this institution under the direction of
its president. Dr. Krauskopf, whom he said was a man whose
charity was confined by no creed and whose feeling of brother-
hood embraced all races under the sun.

FEDERATION OF JEWISH FARMERS OF AMERICA

Second Annual Field Day, August 24, 191 5.

Under the auspices of the Federation of Jewish Farmers
of America, the secretary of the Federation, Mr. Joseph W.
Pincus, arranged for the Second Annual Field Day, to be held
on the grounds of The National Farm School, on August 24th,
for the Jewish farmers residing in Bucks County, Pennsylvania ;
Hunterdon County, New Jersey, and other Pennsylvania coun-
ties in the vicinity of the School.

A beautiful day brought out about thirty Jewish farmers
and their families, who were given the opportunity to inspect the
dairy, poultry, field and horticultural departments of the School,
under the direction of the professors of these departments. Lec-
tures were made by the following speakers :

"How to Buy a Cow," W. H. Bishop, Professor of Agri-
culture; "Making the Farm Home Attractive," W. F. Fancourt,
Professor of Horticulture ; "Poultry Feeding," George Eaton,
Instructor in Poultrying; "The Necessity of Keeping Crops Free
From Insects, Pests and Diseases," Miss Lydia Prichett Bor-
den, Instructor in Biology and Natural Science.

Isaac Landman delivered a short address of welcome, in
behalf of the Board of the School.

24 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

EIGHTEENTH ANNUAL MEETING AND SUCCOTH
PILGRAMAGE

September 26, 1915.

The great urge of Jews toward the soil, and the important
role that The National Farm School has in making this longing
possible was emphasized in the addresses delivered by Louis D.
Brandeis, Esq., of Boston, chairman of the Provisional Com-
mittee for General Zionist Affairs, and Prof. Jacob H. Hol-
lander, of the Department of Economics, Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity, Baltimore, at the Eighteenth Annual Meeting and Suc-
coth Pilgrimage of the institution on Sunday, September 26,
191 5, before one of the largest assemblages that ever crowded
into Segal Hall.

The meeting was presided over in an unusually graceful
manner by Arthur K. Kuhn,. Esq., of New York, a son-in-law
of the late Max Schoenfeld, who was an enthusiastic friend and
supporter of The National Farm School. The platform from
which the orators spoke was converted into a Succah with the
foliage, fruits, vegetables and cereals grown on the broad acres
of the institution, serving also as a concrete exhibit of the stu-
dents' achievements.

Rabbi Rudolph L Coffee, head of the Social Service Depart-
ment of the Independent Order B'nai B'rith, opened the exercises
with prayer.

In assuming the chairmanship, Mr. Kuhn referred to the
conditions that will confront America when the European War
will be at an end. "Now is the time," said Mr. Kuhn, "to pre-
pare men in this country to be able to do the needed work when
the thousands who come to us from devastated Europe will need
their help. For this work, such an institution as The National
Farm School is of vital importance."

Following the delivery of the annual message by Rev. Dr.
Joseph Krauskopf, founder and president of The National Farm
School, Mr. Brandeis, speaking on the theme "Back to the Land,"
said:

"The new agriculture is something radically different from the crude
methods of farming which prevailed in the United States when the great
majority of the inhabitants devoted themselves to that occupation. The new
farming is imbued and led by science — chemical, mechanical and social-
economic, and is making a profession. For many centuries the Jew has, in
most countries, been separated by law from the culture of the land. Where
the opportunity for intelligent farming has existed, he has shown he is not
lacking either in aptitude or in love for the occupation. The Jew, a city
dweller for many generations — weak, frail and nervous as the result of
congested conditions under which he has lived, has developed in the Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut farms, as fine a physical development as any of
his neighbors. He has demonstrated the capacity of earning on formerly
abandoned farms a reasonable living; and in connection with the occupa-
tion there are ample manifestations of his inherited intellectual capacity and
social spirit.

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 25

"li it be true that good leadership implies a sense of impending events,
the Hebrew has certainly shown that quality of leadership in respect to the
land movement. Moses Hess urged the cry of back — or forward, as I pre-
fer to have it — to the land in the early sixties as an answer to the present
day economic difficulties. Lilienblum and Pinsker suggested it independently
in the eighties ; and Dr. Carl Lippe, who died only a few weeks ago, had his
part in establishing the first Jewish agricultural settlement in Palestine in
the seventies. And, what The National Farm School is doing in America
in fitting Hebrews for agricultural life, the Zionists are doing, on a larger
scale, in Palestine. Forty years of effort in Palestine have unquestionably
established 'That Palestine is fit for the modern Hebrew, and the modern
Hebrew is fit for Palestine.'

"Between this National Farm School founded by members of an old
people in the new world ; and that new Jewish development in the old
world — both leading the Hebrews to normal, happy lives, there should be
not only complete sympathy, but perfect understanding."

Professor Hollander stressed the great value of The Na-
tional Farm School in solving America's economic problems,
and its high usefulness in helping the Jews of this country to
render the republic the highest usefulness. He insisted that the
effort of the institution's officers must be directed toward mak-
ing it a really national institution, in which all the Jews of every
part of the United States shall be equally interested. "At pres-
ent," said the speaker, "it is not known outside of this section.
Endowment should be derived not only from Philadelphia or
Pennsylvania, but should be provided by the Jews of the country
at large. Its well-being affects not only a city or a State, but
society and the nation."

Dr. Coffee, speaking of "The Soil and the Soul of the Jew,"
said:

"For developing the soul of Israel we need the soil, a return
on a magnificent scale to agricultural industries. When this war
is ended, thousands of immigrants will come to this country.
Jews in large numbers will come here, and we must prevent their
congregating in the larger cities. Let us prepare a way for them
to lead their lives in the culture of the land."

Reports were submitted by the treasurer, Mr. I. H. Silver-
man; Mr. Herbert D. Allman, chairman of the Schoenfeld Farms
Committee; the Director, Dr. John H. Washburn; Professor
Bishop, head of the Agricultural Department; Professor Fan-
court, of the Horticultural Department; and by Miss Lydia
Prichett Borden, biologist and librarian.

After the distribution of prizes to the students, the annual
election was held, resulting in the re-election of Dr. Krauskopf
as president and Harry B. Hirsh, vice-president.

Four members of the local board, who had served on the
board consecutively for ten years, were elected to honorary trus-
teeship, with the same rights, privileges and duties of elected

26 THE xNATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

members, as follows: Hart Blumenthal, Alfred M. Klein, Leon
Merz, Bernard Selig.

Five members were elected to succeed those members of
the local board whose terms expired this year, for a new term of
three years, as follows: Henry Bronner, Morris Fleishman,
Horace Hano, Dr. Bernard Kohn, Isaac Landman.

To succeed Mr. Leon Merz, whose term expires 19 17,
Eugene Stern was elected.

The following were elected to the National Auxiliary
Board: To represent the State of Maryland, Milton D. Green-
■baum, of Baltimore ; to represent the State of New York, Maurice
Wertheim, of New York City; to represent the State of Connec-
ticut, Isaac M. Ullman, of New Haven; to represent the State
■of Colorado, Mrs. Morris Ripley, of Denver; to represent the
State of Oklahoma, I. B. Lew, of Oklahoma City.

MEMORIAL AND FESTIVE TREES

Owing to the increased number of memorial and festive
trees, it was necessary to re-chart the entire farm. New blue
prints have been made and an entirely new system of number-
ing installed, by which no two trees on Farm School property have
the same number. This entailed a tremendous amount of work.
A new set of typewritten records has been made, and a card index
prepared, giving the name, address, date of death and date of
consecration. As an aid in locating trees, every label on the farm
has been numbered.

This year our students have done all the painting of the
labels, 469 memorial and 39 festive labels being painted by them
this spring. During the summer, 174 others were painted (mak-
ing a total of 682) and inscribed. Printing the library index
cards has proved such good training, that it is no longer neces-
sary to employ outside labor for our tree labels. In the future,
the entire work of painting, inscribing and numbering memorial
and festive labels can be done by our students.

•38 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR

John Hosea Washburn, Ph. D.

The School and Its Students: The past year has been
one of earnest work and constant endeavor on the part of our
Faculty and Student Body. Many of the experiences of the
pioneer Agricultural Colleges, both of the Eastern and Middle
States, are lived over again by the pioneer Agricultural Schools.

Today there are scores of secondary Agricultural Schools in
our land. When The National Farm School was established only
one or two were in existence.

Just what topics in the class room should be taught to give
the pupil the most assistance to understand the problems of prac-
tical and scientific agriculture was then to be determined largely
by experiment. Today we have much more light on the subject.
However, at the present time, there are two distinct classes of
Agricultural Schools.

One class draws its pupils from a farming community. Such
a school finds it unnecessary to give instruction in simple farm
operations, the handling of ordinary crops, the care of the dif-
ferent farm animals, the use and operation of ordinary farm
tools. These subjects have been taught and practiced by its
pupils from early childhood. Schools having such pupils devote
the major portion of their time to instruction in Mathematics,
English, History and the elementary sciences of Chemistry,
Physics, Geology, Botany, Physiology and Entomology in their
application to Agricultural practices already familiar to their
pupils. Their courses of instruction are arranged as preparatory
schools to the Colleges of Agriculture.

Another class of schools, and to this belongs The National
Farm School, draws its pupils almost entirely from the cities or
villages. These students have had no opportunity to learn the most
elementary farm work. Everything is new to them. They have
absolutely no ideas of or previous experience in farming. They
come to us with a love of agriculture in their heart, and a desire
to learn how to become farmers, that they may successfully
conduct farms for themselves. A school with such pupils must
began right at the beginning. The first books upon agricultural
subjects have to be slowly explained because the every-day terms

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 39

employed by the farmer must be taught, and the major portion
of school time must be used in agricultural practice that they may
become farmers as soon as possible. The agricultural sciences
are taught when time will permit. A portion of each day is spent
in the class room learning the sciences and their application to
farming. As has been said, one school is educating Agricultur-
ists, the other teaching city boys how to farm.

The National Farm School, from its earliest establishment,
has endeavored to teach farming. It has never attempted to give
a college course or to prepare its pupils for college. It has con-
farming. As has been said, one school is educating agriculturists,
the other is teaching city boys how to farm.

The School's Needs: Our school is sadly in need of a
Recitation Hall with sufficient rooms for an adequate Chemical
Laboratory and class rooms accommodating 50 pupils each. A
similar space should be provided for our Physical Department.
The Biological Department has no home. It should have a
Laboratory and class room for the study of Botany, Zoology and
Entomology. Our courses in Agriculture suffer from the lack
of an adequate agricultural recitation room with its accompany-
ing laboratory, where classes may be taken to test corn and other
farm seeds, analyze milk and study the mechanism and construc-
tion of agricultural implements. This laboratory should be on
the ground floor, conveniently arranged, so that the large and
small farm animals could be taken before the whole class for
judging and study.

In the early years of the school a chemical laboratory was
donated that sufficed for the instruction of about eighteen students
in Chemistry and Physics. But today it is necessary to use the
whole of this laboratory as an apparatus and storage room for
the educational equipment of the departments of Physics, Chem-
istry, Geology, Botany and Entomology. It is further used for
teachers to prepare their illustrative lectures previous to taking
them before their classes.

. A Science Hall containing four lecture rooms and labora-
tories for Chemistry, Physics, Botany and Entomology, each
large enough for fifty pupils, is a necessity.

The library has been more helpful to the pupils, due to cata-

40 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

loging and the making of an author and subject catalog index,
under Miss Borden's direction. Both agricultural and scientific
books, together with hundreds of the more important and recent
bulletins, have been catalogued.

Biological Department: The instruction given by Pro-
fessor Borden in Economic Fungi has been useful in explaining
the "why" we spray our orchards and some ornamental trees and
shrubs, when dormant.

Poultry Department: Professor George Eaton, Jr., has
been able to make the practical instruction in his department
reach more pupils by alternating the pupils assigned to the Dairy
with those sent to the Poultry Department for instruction.

The Hall incubator recently installed has hatched over 3,000
chickens this year. The number of laying fowls kept over winter
has increased two-fold. The number of eggs sold and furnished
the Boarding Department for the year was over 773 dozen.

Horticultural Department: Professor W. F. Fan-
court's report will show the progress made in this department.
The Nursery and Green Houses have added to the wealth of
materials for instruction. The orchards were never in better
condition nor did they ever produce better fruit than this year.
The price that this fruit brought in the open market, however,
was never so low, due to abundance of crops and the economic
conditions of our country. The department has sold for cash
over $1,000.00 worth of products, while a like amount has been
furnished our Domestic Department for school use.

General Agriculture Department: Professor W. H.
Bishop's report shows his results in this department. The amount
of milk produced during the year was over 147,000 quarts. The
general crops have not been as valuable as in other years. We
have harvested 170 tons of hay, 20 tons of straw, 10,000 bundles
of corn stover, 1,700 bushels of corn, 100 bushels each of rye
and wheat, 350 tons of silage, 600 bushels of apples, 75 bushels
of pears, 150 bushels of onions, 200 bushels of potatoes, 1,500
baskets of peaches, 10,000 heads of cabbage, 5,000 ears of sweet
corn, 100 baskets of lima beans, 1,000 bunches of asparagus and
50 tons of mangels.

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 41

ScHOENFELD MEMORIAL Farms: The Flora Schoenfeld
Memorial Farm Number One has improved its stock and crops
each year. A larger silo, holding at least four times as much
silage as the old one, has been erected. A new addition to the
barn has been built by the students. This will provide for a ma-
terial increase in the cattle kept on this farm. A new milk room
and manure pit have been built which will materially aid the
sanitary conditions of the milk delivered from this plant to the
hospitals in Philadelphia.

The Schoenfeld Memorial Farm Number Two has had an
excellent crop of peaches from the orchard. The interplanted
apple trees have grown so well that some this season are yielding
one to two bushels of fruit. The two-acre asparagus bed im-
proved this season in quality and quantity of product. A young
cherry orchard was planted on this farm this spring.

Schoenfeld Memorial Farm Number Three has undergone
changes this year. Mr, Howard F. Young, the foreman, has
worked very diligently with the pupils, whenever possible, to
underdrain and reclaim the lot between the dwelling house and
the eastern wood lot. Much of the field has been reclaimed. An
efficient water system has been installed. The old tank, that
formerly stood in the grove back of the chapel, was moved to
Farm Number Three and furnishes to the barn and piggery an
excellent supply of water. This was much needed because both
wells at the barn went dry last summer. The cattle had to be
driven to the open brook to be watered. The new system saves
much time and insures a purer water for the cows.

The Household: Our Matron, Miss Hetty Abraham, and
her assistant, Mrs. J. N. Loeb, are entitled to much credit for the
excellent care of the household and health of the students. The
Jewish Hospital has taken care of the few serious cases, for
which we are extremely grateful. It gives to all parents a de-
cided feeling of security to know that their sons can procure at
a place so near the wonderful treatment that is given by the
Jewish Hospital to all its patients.

The cash receipts for the year from all the farms amounts
to $9,730.66. Value of produce raised and taken to Boarding
Department, $3,489.53. Total value of crops raised, $13,220.19.

42 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT REPORT

Professor William H. Bishop.

The present season has been characterized by an unusually-
large number of those peculiarities, not to say disasters, that
make farming the somewhat uncertain business that it is for
those who have not the qualities which enable them to stick to it
for a long term of years.

The winter and spring were notable for favorable condi-
tions. By the eighth of January our ice house was filled with
the best ice ever put up and but once during the past ten years
have we cut our ice earlier in the season. It is significant that
after that date no ice thick enough to cut was formed in this
locality.

The continued diseased condition of our chestnut trees
made it necessary to cut several thousand feet of timber during
the winter. By spring the v/ork in the woods was well cleaned
up and about 75 cords of wood sawed ready for the stoves.

We began plowing earlier than ever in the history of the
school, and favorable weather enabled us to push the spring work
faster than usual. Our first corn was planted a week or two
earlier than common, and until the first of August we had on
our farms the finest fields of corn to be seen in the country.

Then on the third and fourth of August came one of the
worst storms ever known so early in the season and the prospect
for an unusual corn crop was blighted in a night. The leaves
were stripped to ribbons, the corn roots torn from the soil and the
stalks laid almost flat on the ground. This interfered seriously
with the further growth of the crop and has put it in such shape
that much extra labor and trouble will be necessary in harvesting.

The weather in the early part of the season seemed favor-
able for the grass crop, but when hay was harvested we found
that the yield was less than was expected and the almost daily
rains damaged much of it. The bright spot in this crop is that
an unusually large second crop is being harvested which partially
remunerates us for the shortness of the first crop.

Never has our country seen such a luxuriant oat crop. Just
at the time of harvesting, however, the rains were more per-
sistent than ever and few were the fields that were not com-
pletely ruined.

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 43

On the other hand the wet weather has given us a very large
crop of mangels and cabbages, but thus far the price of the latter
has been so low as to make it more profitable to feed them to
<^attle than to market them.

The potato crop throughout the East is a general failure,
owing to the prevalence of rot. Ours is no exception to the rule.
With land naturally unadapted to the crop those tubers already
dug are of very poor quality and many are rotten.

Some of our sweet corn has been almost a complete failure.
In no year of the past eight have we had so little.

Lima beans, sometimes a profitable crop for us, are yield-
ing very little.

This season is the one when our apple crop is generally
large, but the wet weather during the spraying season prevented
the spray from being as effectual as usual, and we shall probably
have a large proportion of defective fruit.

A favorable season resulted in the setting of another large
crop of peaches. Thorough thinning early in the season gave
promise of a crop of very fine fruit. But wet weather caused a
large amount of rot and with abundant crops wherever peaches
are grown, the prices have been anything but profitable for the
grower.

The crop which has been an unqualified success is the weed
crop. All species known to this region have thrived and, except
where conditions were such as to make expense a matter of no
account, they have persisted in showing themselves predominant
over the crops. Everywhere they grew. No sooner was one
rooted out than a hundred strove to fill its place, while the up-
rooted one struggled hard to regain its old roothold. They
fought with the corn, they overtopped the potatoes, they beat
the alfalfa and today the rag weed is triumphant on the wheat
stubble, crowding down the clover and uniting with the smart
wed for possession of the land. No blight attacked them and rot
affected them not. In the orcha'rds they seemed ready to climb
the trees and take the fruit. However, enough peaches escaped,
so that housewives have had the privilege of buying them for far
less than it cost to grow them. We hope that another year the
tables may be turned and the farmer's innings be called.

44 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

Some garden vegetables have grown to unusual size and
given great yields.

Amid this catalog of woe it is fair to state that there is a
partial exception in the dairy.

From the live stock divisions of our farms we shall this sea-
son derive a larger proportion than ever of our profit. The
dairies have continued week by week and month after month to
give a regular income and, as for several years past, have given
the best returns for our labors.

We feel more strongly than ever that our plan of teaching
farming by having the students engaged in real productive com-
mercial agriculture gives a reality to the instruction that cannot be
attained by mere laboratory work where the product has no
economic value.

With the increase in the number of students and no increase
in number of acres to cultivate we find it necessary to change
somewhat our farm organization and cropping systems, to suit
the changed conditions. It would be well, if, as students increase,
our acres could also be increased.

It is in the production of the great staple crops that most
farmers will be employed as far into the future as we can see
and, consequently, more opportunities are open for success in
general farming than in any other line of soil culture. Hence
we must continue to provide adequate means of instruction in
that line, and land is a necessity for that.

It must not be overlooked, however, that while this report
has dealt with the conditions and growth of crops, that our farms
are worked primarily for the purpose of making efficient farmers
of our boys and that, while for that purpose we earnestly desire
to produce good crops, yet, in connection with that and over-
topping it in importance, is the direction of the work in such a
manner as to give a maximum of efficient, thorough instruction
to the students for the education of whom the institution exists.

HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT REPORT

Professor Walter F. Fancourt.

Nursery : In my report last year I spoke of the attractive
features of the Nursery and of its being a source of income. This
year we have disposed of more stock than before, but through
the annual planting of new propagations we are able to maintain
its unbroken front.

Privet (of which we sell many thousands) were propagated
in large quantities last winter, and will soon be ready for sale.
Evergreens were also produced in large quantities and have been
planted in the Nursery.

Oppenheimer Memorial: Friends of the late Mr. Joseph
E. Oppenheimer contributed funds and requested that a memorial
for him should be located in the Nursery. This has been done.
Situated near the evergreen bed, planted in memory of Mrs.
Henrietta Krauskopf a rustic summer house has been erected.
Japanese maples and other decorative plants and flowers surround
it, and the donors have expressed themselves as pleased with the
work accomplished.

The Japanese hydrangea bed planted to the memory of Mr.
Samuel Strauss has produced a wealth of bloom this summer.

Greenhouses: Like the Nursery, the greenhouses have
increased their output. It takes an ever-increasing number of
plants for our grounds. The sale of plants and flowers has ex-
ceeded former years. Our students are now treating our green-
houses to a coat of paint.

Vegetable Garden: Our household has been abundantly
supplied with vegetables. We have had a profusion of all varie-
ties ; copious rains contributing to this.

Vegetable Cellar: The vegetable cellar below the labor-
atory, provided for the purpose last year, has proved a valuable
asset. We can now protect our stores from frost and have
access to them in all weather.

The main building cellars are packed with canned vegetables
and fruit for winter use. String beans and tomatoes take the
lead in hundreds of two-quart jars, cucumbers in thousands for
pickles, peaches galore, jellies in variety, with apples and pears
to follow shortly.

46 THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

In my reports I never fail to speak of the students' individual
gardens. These, I believe, to be a valuable feature of our train-
ing, giving to the students a sense of proprietorship and responsi-
bility. Dr. and Mrs. Krauskopf as usual furnish the money for
prizes in this contest.

The cash sales of this department in the past fiscal year were:

From the Nursery $441.00

From the Greenhouses 560.40

From the Garden 42.46

REPORT OF THE BIOLOGICAL DEPARTMENT

Professor Lydia Pritchett Borden.

This department has been much improved by the addition
of a new high power microscope equipped for bacteriological
work, which will be of great value in laboratory studies in the
Agricultural and Bacteriological courses.

During the spring and summer months a large collection of
useful and harmful insects has been made for use in next win-
ter's class work, as many as a quart of some species being gath-
ered. As far as possible, these have been secured in various
stages of development from tgg to adult, so that the life history
of the species can be well illustrated in the class room. This
work is not only useful in obtaining material for class instruc-
tion, but has been of direct benefit in teaching the student to
associate a given species with the proper food plants and also in
fixing in his mind the destructive stages of different species, the
season when found, and even the hour of the day when damage
is caused, the students being greatly interested to learn that in-
sects found on a given plant at one time of day may not be seen
again until the corresponding hour of another day, and that

THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 47

even then their presence or absence often depends on weather
conditions.

In addition to the class material, a permanent collection for
the school has been started. Considerable and increasing inter-
est has been shown in this important work and many of the
students are making good personal collections. Records of each
day's collections are carefully kept, with date and hour. This
work will be continued throughout the year. Some good zoologi-
cal specimens have also been preserved as well as some plant
material. Considerable attention has been paid to destructive
fungi. The department is greatly in need of a suitable case
in which to keep our permanent collection where it can be con-
stantly seen and referred to by the students.

THE LIBRARY
Lydia Pritchett Borden, Librarian.

During the past year a number of valuable books have been
added to our shelves, but we are much in need of the new Inter-
national Encyclopaedia, and are hoping (through the kindness of
Dr. Krauskopf and Mr. Blumenthal) some means will be found
of securing it in the near future.

With the termination of half-day classes, it was possible to
resume cataloging the books. During the summer, hundreds
of unbound publications of the Department of Agriculture, as
well as many bound volumes, have been indexed, thus making
their use available to students. As the card printing is done en-
tirely by the students, who have had no previous training as
librarians, the work (considerable in itself) is necessarily pro-
longed, especially as the students are changed from one depart-
ment to another every few weeks. Incomplete though the index
still is, it has already proved of great assistance.

DOMESTIC DEPARTMENT REPORT

Hetty Abraham, Matron.

The number of this household was much enlarged by the
entrance of the Freshman Class in April, counting in all about
one hundred and thirty souls to be looked after as to food, health,
sleeping quarters, laundry, etc.

The students are housed in four different buildings, which
tends to make housekeeping complicated. Dormitories are in-
spected every day by the Governor and Matron while the stu-
dent stands at "attention" in his respective cubicle, in the sum-
mer at 7 A. M. and in the winter season at 7.30.

A new domestic hall is very much to be desired to fill the
demands of this overcrowded institution. There are absolutely
no accommodations for an increase in the faculty, which has
been decided upon by the Board of Managers. The lack of
enough rooms for the domestics, the number of which must be
augmented in proportion to the household, hampers the economy
of this department.

It is pleasant to report that the health of our students is all
that can be desired, and though the Jewish Hospital has, as
usual, attended to several cases during the year, none has been
of a serious nature.

The Boarding Department has had a bountiful supply of
ice, milk, cream, butter, cheese, skimmed milk, eggs, fruits and
vegetables from the Farm Department. Several thousand
quarts of fruits and vegetables have been preserved and canned
for winter use, and grapes, pears and peaches are yet to be
handled.

The Ladies' Auxiliary Sewing Circle has been most gen-
erous in supplying linens, which include spreads, sheets, pillow
cases, face, bath, roller and kitchen towels, table cloths, napkins
and laundry bags.

A grateful donation came from Mrs. Max Latz, of Atlantic
City, who furnished the dormitory at Schoenfeld Memorial Farm
Number One with twenty-three white enamel beds, mattresses
and pillows.

The Philadelphia Branch of the Needle Work Guild of
America sent us in November two hundred and sixty-four useful
articles of wearing apparel. Other donations to this department
will be recorded elsewhere.

REPORT OF THE LADIES' BOARD OF THE
NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL

(Mrs. R. a.) Rosa B. Schoneman, Chairman.

During the year 1914-1915 the Ladies' Board held meet-
ings monthly at the Alumni Building at which work for the
betterment of conditions at the Farm School was discussed. A
committee of two (2) visited the Farm School twice every month
and conferred with the matron and housekeeper.

At the Spring Outing and the Fall Pilgrimage, the ladies
took charge of the refreshments. The Sewing Circle, which met
on the first and third Thursdays from November to April in-
clusive, sent the following articles to the Farm School :

144 bath towels, 16 roller towels, 397 face towels,

120 bed spreads. 30 laundry bags, 60 kitchen towels,

154 sheets, 3 table cloths for faculty use,

356 pillow cases, i ironing sheet.

ANNUAL MEETING OF ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

The sixth annual meeting of the Alumni Association was
held on Sunday, September 26, 19 15, at The National Farm
School.

A large number of the graduates cultivating their own farms
or working for others, in the vicinity of the School, were present.
Many of those who could not attend forwarded letters expressing
their interest in the Association and in their Alma Mater.

Reports of the work and of the successes achieved by many
of the graduates were read by the Secretary, Charles Horn, '06.

The following officers were elected for the ensuing year:

President, James Work, '13; Vice-President, Samuel S. Rochlin, '11;

REPORT OF FLORA SCHOENFELD MEMORIAL
FARMS COMMITTEE

Herbert D. Allman, Chairman.

It is with pleasure that, as chairman of the Flora Schoen-
feld Memorial Farms Committee, I am permitted to submit to
you the seventh annual financial report of the Schoenfeld Farm

No. 3- .. . .

This farm is giving ample demonstration of the purpose
which the late Mr. Max Schoenfeld had in mind when he gave
this farm to the School; that is, that it should be used as a model
farm with a manager, to give practical instruction to the students
how a farm can be run as a money-making investment. When
we took hold of this farm, seven years ago, we incurred an in-
debtedness of $5,000 in stocking the place. In that time, we have
made numerous improvements to the barns and out-buildings,
and we have reclaimed some twenty-five acres of land, thus not
only greatly enhancing the value of our property, but also giving
us more workable ground, and affording practical instruction for
our students, in the reclamation of the soil. In addition, we have
not only paid off the entire indebtedness, with which we started
the farm, but we have a cash balance in bank, giving practical
proof that a farm, carefully and properly managed, can be made
to pay.

Schoenfeld Farms No. i and 2 have had a very successful
year. On Farm No. i, extensive improvements are being made.
As these alterations are not yet entirely completed, a fuller ac-
count will be given in our next report. This farm is managed
by a post-graduate on shares with the School, and the improve-
ments are being paid for out of the farm's net earnings. From
Farm No. 2, we have just taken the largest crop of peaches
which its orchard has ever yielded. The actual work on these
farms will be reported on more fully by the director of the
School.

In conclusion, I desire to express my appreciation to the
other members of my committee, and to the faculty of the School,
for the earnest help and co-operation they have given me in the
administration of the affairs of these farms.

Your Frank Suggestions Welcomed

Every day we learn more of what our
consumers desire in the way of gas ser-
vice from the suggestions they give us.
It is our aim to get as near to perfection
as is humanly possible. We realize
that good gas service helps to make gas
indispensable as a kitchen fuel and home
illuminant and that this, in turn, helps
to increase the consumption of gas.
Your suggestions will be welcomed and
given prompt attention.

"Faultless" bedding is made with mathematical accuracy; that
is why it keeps its shape, always presents a flat resilient sur-
face and is so luxurious. The only mattress or box spring that
compares with one branded "Faultless" is another bearing the
same name.
"Faultless" Bedding is faultless because made so— by rule.

Yonr tie slides easily in your collar, if the collar was laundered by us.

We iron the inside of your collars as smooth as the outside, and mould them

into shape so they will not pinch your tie or bind upon it.

You will certainly appreciate this point. It saves your ties, prevents the

Wire Your House for Electricity
on the Deferred Payment Plan

YOU can have your house wired for Elec-
tricity and pay for it as convenient — each
month a small amount will be added to vour
Electric Light bill and you can pay for both
wiring and Electricity at the same time. If you
rent your home your landlord will certainly be
interested in this proposition.

You may obtain wiring bids from any recognized contractor,
and when you have accepted the same and contracts have been
signed on our regular forms, we will pay the contractor's bill, after
the wiring has been completed and approved by the Board of
Fire Insurance Underwriters and our own inspectors. You will
then refund us the amount of this bill in twelve or twenty -four
monthly payments, as you may elect, free of interest charge. This
plan applies only to unwired, completed dwellings, and will not
hold good in the case of new building construction. The only
condition is that the risk must first have been approved and ac-
cepted by this Company before the work is commenced.

You can have your home wired for less than the cost of a player-piano or
talking machine; and it will be done without causing dirt or confusion. We will
obtain the wiring estimates for you, if you say the word, without any obligation
on your part. The wiring may easily be completed in time to enjoy Electric
Light and Electrical Conveniences during the coming hot summer months. An
interesting booklet on wiring already-built houses sent on request.
