LOGICAL 

Thinkers  like  Professor  Albert  Einstein,.  Felix  M. 
Warburg,  Rabbi  A.  H.  Silver  and  others,  stress  the  im- 
portance of  our  Jewish  youth  making  so-me  branch  of 
agriculture  their  vocation,  instead  of  entering  over- 
crowded professions.  Too  many  seek  the  easier  jobs, 
instead  of  working  in  hard-muscle  and  pioneer  activities 
our  country  needs. 

THE  NATIONAL  FAEM  SCHOOL  was  definitely 
founded  to  give  w^orthy  farm-minded  boys  an  opportunity 
for  farm  training  as  a  living.  This  School  differs  from 
agricultural  colleges — it  teaches  both  the  science  and 
practice  of  farming. 

Is  it  not  the  duty  of  every  citizen  to  support  the 
policies  of  this  philanthropy?  To  what  extent  are  you 
willing  to  help  keep  the  doors  of  this  unendowed  institu- 
tion open? 

HERBERT  D.  ALLMAN, 

President.

THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL 

Message  of  the  President 

HERBERT    D.    ALLMAN 

to  the 

Thirty-sixth  Annual  Meeting 

of 

The  National  Farm  School 

October  16,  1933 


Obviously,  we  have  been  passing  througli  a  crisis,  world- 
wide in  scope.  Though  difficulties  are  still  ahead  of  us.  full 
recovery  can  be  better  achieved,  if  we  selflessly  Avork  together 
for  public  welfare.  Social  justice  and  spiritual  values  count 
more  than  material  things.  Underlying  all  our  efforts,  is  the 
conviction  that  men  cannot  live  unto  themselves  alone. 

The  need  for  The  National  Farm  School,  chartered  in  1896, 
for  the  purpose  of  establishing  worthy  city  boys  on  the  farm,  is 
far  greater  today  than  in  the  past.  During  present  economic 
and  industrial  conditions,  limited  prospects  of  gainful  employ- 
ment, bring  enforced  idleness  and  discouragement.  More  than 
a  million  graduates  are  annually  turned  out  by  schools  and  col- 
leges, many  disillusioned  and  restless,  few  securing  jobs.  This 
is  a  serious  social  problem,  that  may  be  partially  solved  by  divert- 
ing a  larger  percentage  of  students  from  overcrowded  profes- 
sions, and  encouraging  agricultural  training.  In  affording  such 
opportunity  for  earning  an  honorable  living,  this  school  is  con- 
tributing its  share  towards  a  basic  vocational  education. 

Now,  more  than  ever,  all  educational  institutions,  organized 
and  sustained  by  society  for  its  improvement,  should  keep  their 
doors  open.  Affording  school  facilities  to  larger  numbers  of  our 
youth,  lessens  competition  between  them  and  adults  seeking  jobs. 
America  is  moving  into  a  ''modernistic"  scheme  of  existence. 
The  problem  of  finding  employment  for  both  capital  and  labor 
is  serious  and  must  be  faced  squarely.  Vigorous  policies  should 
be  adopted  to  solve  this  increasing  complexity  of  civilization. 
Changes  should  be  adjusted  progressively,  well-planned  stand- 
ards maintained  and  high  ideals  upheld. 


6  THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL 

Long  passed  its  experimental  stage,  this  School  continues 
the  traditions  and  philosophy  of  its  Founder,  and  cherishes  the 
ideals  bequeathed  to  it.  Having  helped  build  up  this  national 
philanthropy,  designed  for  education,  nothing  should  detract 
from  our  fixed  resolution  to  carry  on,  nor  from  the  importance 
and  significance  of  continued  progress.  As  growth  is  synonymous 
with  development,  school  standards  should,  from  time  to  time, 
be  revised  and  freshened.  To  this  end,  extensive  curricular 
changes,  incorporated  in  a  new  catalog,  will  go  into  effect  this 
fall. 

It  is  good  to  live  in  the  country — away  from  crowded  cities ; 
to  enjoy  in  sunshine  and  rain,  the  beauties  of  nature,  its  flowers, 
trees  and  fields,  if  income  is  assured,  or  one  can  intelligently 
farm  for  a  living.  Flight  from  city  to  country  offers  no  economic 
remedy  from  social  ills  to  the  unemployed,  unless  they  are 
equipped  with  labor-saving  machinery  and  knowledge  how  to 
farm.  Untrained,  enthusiastic  pioneers  at  best  eke  out  but  a 
bare  living,  besides  aggravating  overproduction.  Government 
programs  of  crop  curtailment  prove  difficult,  where  success  in 
the  venture  depends  upon  ability  to  build  up,  rather  than  destroy. 
Change  of  environment  and  long  hours  of  toil  also  demand  care- 
ful consideration  by  those  contemplating  the  purchase  of  land 
for  a  livelihood.  Declining  crop  prices  and  foreclosures  make 
abandoned  farms  available  at  ridiculously  low  prices.  If,  of  poor 
or  impoverished  soil,  they  prove  unprofitable  at  any  price.  Back 
to  the  farm?  Yes — but  only  for  those  fitted  by  temperament, 
training  and  economic  backing.  Industry  in  the  city  too,  must 
have  its  proper  allotment  of  manpower.  When  decentralization 
moves  factories  to  suburban  districts,  the  raising  of  garden  crops 
by  workmen,  as  a  pleasant  and  profitable  avocation,  should  be 
encouraged,  to  utilize  leisure  hours. 

Vocational  success  depends  upon  adequate  social  prepara- 
tion. Vision  and  knowledge  are  not  products  of  chance.  They 
must  be  cultivated  by  example,  perseverance  and  education.  The 
expansion  and  enrichment  of  mind  and  heart  in  learning  are 
fundamental.  The  world  needs  those  who  can  achieve.  After 
the  present  economic  chaos,  capable  young  men  and  women, 
entering  the  field  of  activity,  will  find  distance  to  the  front 
greatly  shortened,  through  elimination  of  the  unfit. 

At  this  School,  contact  between  student  and  faculty  is  more 
intimate    than    at    college.     This   implants   tendencies    of    good-

fellowship,  self-reliance  and  qualities  of  leadership.  Our  students 
are  encouraged  to  consult  with  instructors  for  advice  and  counsel. 
Good  citizenship,  healthy  physical  habits,  cultural  aspirations 
and  appreciation  for  sound  economic  principles,  are  indispensable 
requirements  for  success.  Correlative  with  properly  rounded 
courses  in  agriculture,  we  endeavor  to  develop  true  Americanism 
and  community  spirit,  by  inculcating  lofty  principles  of  conduct, 
benevolence  and  fair  dealing — ethics,  that  by  impulse  and  in- 
clination, guide  students  throughout  their  active  lives.  It  has 
been  truly  said  that  "learning  is  part  of  living,"  One  learns 
with  his  hands,  as  well  as  and  in  many  cases  better,  than  with 
his  head.  The  accomplishment  of  work  well  done  stimulates 
strength,  poise  and  responsibility. 

"We  prepare  young  men  for  useful  lives,  offering  pleasant 
campus  and  dormitory  environment,  to  create  an  aesthetic  sense 
of  value.  Living  close  to  the  soil,  thinking  simply,  seeing  clearly, 
students,  tired  but  happy  after  a  day's  work,  enjoy  both  food 
and  bed.  We  want  them  to  play,  too — thus  realizing  oppor- 
tunities for  vigor,  health  and  relaxation,  without  which  life 
becomes  boresome.  Therefore,  we  encourage  clean  athletics  and 
good  sportsmanship.  The  school  fighting  spirit  in  that  direction 
is  best  expressed  by  undefeated  football,  basketball  and  base- 
ball teams,  under  the  spendid  coaching  of  Mr.  Samuels.  Those 
not  interested  in  athletics,  find  diversion  in  the  School's  band 
and  orchestra,  under  the  direction  of  Lieutenant  Frankel,  leader 
of  the  Philadelphia  Municipal  Band. 

From  a  higher  educational  standpoint,  literary  appreciation 
is  stressed.  A  knowledge  of  history,  economics,  philosophy  and 
science,  is  as  important  to  the  farmer  as  to  the  city  man.  There 
is  no  yardstick  to  measure  its  full  value.  Life  is  incomplete 
without  the  companionship  of  good  books,  one  of  life's  richest 
resources.  The  Joseph  Krauskopf  Library  functions  efficiently 
under  the  supervision  of  our  librarian,  Miss  Rebecca  Churchman. 
It  serves,  too,  as  a  forum  for  national,  educational  and  social 
discussions.  Much  of  the  growth  of  this  circulating  library  is 
due  to  the  book  knowledge  of  Chairman  Hart  Blumenthal,  who 
contributes  many  standard  works.  It  is  gratifying  to  observe 
the  decorum  of  those  who  read  and  study  in  the  cultural  environ- 
ment of  this  beautiful  building. 

This  School,  supported  principally  by  the  Jews  of  America, 
is  non-sectarian  in  its  administration,  and  admission  of  students. 


8  THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL 

Obviously,  Jewish  farm  movements  are  of  particular  relation  to 
our  Jewish  students  and  supporters.  Those  who  have  not  read 
the  illuminating  article  of  Mr.  Gabriel  Davidson,  "The  Jew  at 
His  Ancestral  Calling,"  published  in  the  ''American  Hebrew," 
may  be  interested  to  learn  some  of  the  salient  facts. 

He  states  a  truism,  that  the  association  of  the  terms  "Jew" 
and  "farming"  sounds  like  an  anachronism  to  those  who  believe 
that  farming  among  Jews  ceased  with  the  dispersion  of  ancient 
Israel  from  its  ancestral  home,  nineteen  hundred  years  ago. 
Oppressive  and  restrictive  laws  closed  the  doors  of  agriculture 
to  Jews  who  dwelt  in  those  benighted  countries.  The  ownership 
of  land  was  barred  to  them.  Nevertheless,  an  urge  to  return 
to  the  calling  of  their  fathers  was  ever  present. 

In  America,  where  no  race  barriers  exist,  Jews  were  engaged 
in  farming  from  the  dawm  of  our  country's  history.  Luis  de 
Torres,  Columbus'  Jewish  interpreter,  settled  in  the  AVest  Indies 
and  became  perhaps  the  first  white  planter  in  America.  As 
early  as  1825,  Major  Mordecai  M.  Noah,  unsuccessfully  attempted 
to  establish  a  colony  on  an  island  in  the  Niagara  River.  Though 
many  Jewish  farm  colonization  projects  met  with  failure,  Jews 
settled  on  farms  as  individuals. 

The  Baron  de  Hirsch  Fund,  founded  in  1891,  promoted  rural 
activities  among  Jews  in  this  country.  This  was  but  one  item 
of  a  ramified  program  leading  to  the  founding  of  the 
Jewish  Agricultural  Society,  which  encourages  and  directs  agri- 
culture among  Jews  of  the  United  States,  guides  the  farm  buyer, 
protects  him  against  fraud,  finds  employment,  extends  loans 
and  makes  available,  information  on  matters  pertaining  to  busi- 
ness and  farming.  Beginning  with  the  present  century,  through 
this  worthy  society,  plus  opportunities  offered  by  The  National 
Farm  School,  the  Jewish  agricultural  movement  experienced  a 
real  growth.  The  desire  to  become  one's  "own  boss,"  helps 
counterbalance  the  tendency  to  w^ork'  in  city  shop  or  factory. 
These  farmers  may  not  receive  as  high  a  wage,  nor  every  amuse- 
ment city  life  offers.  Nevertheless,  through  economy  and  pru- 
dence, they  become  contented  possessors  of  the  land,  and  realize 
their  ideals. 

In  recent  years,  the  migration  of  Jews  towards  the  land  has 
steadilj''  increased.  The  tendency  of  the  Jew,  more  or  less  of 
gregarious  inclination,  is  to  settle  near  centers  of  Jewish  popula- 
tion, where,  with  his  family  he  can  better  observe  his  religious

customs.  It  is  not  an  easy  change  for  Jewish  people,  denied 
for  centuries  access  to  the  soil,  to  root  themselves  into  the 
agrarian  class.  Therefore,  hastily  conceived  plans  for  Jewish 
co-operative  farming  should  not  be  unduly  encouraged,  nor  should 
those  individually  engaged  in  agriculture  become  discouraged 
because  of  present  hard  times.  All  industry  is  equally  affected. 
When  good  times  return,  alert  farmers  will  be  successful  and 
perhaps  happier  than  their  city  brothers.  The  American-born 
Jew  of  this  generation  is  more  venturesome  than  the  early 
settlers.  Numbers  of  our  trained  graduates  nOw  successfully 
farm  in  the  far  West  and  South.  Others  are  professional 
research  workers,  veterinarians  or  farm  managers.  The  majority, 
however,  become  general  farmers  or  specialize  in  poultry,  horti- 
culture, floriculture,  landscape  gardening,  dairy,  agronomy  or 
farm  mechanics. 

Farming  to  be  profitable,  must  be  along  scientific  lines. 
Practical  knowledge  is  of  equal  importance.  Students  of  The 
National  Farm  School  receive  this  dual  training,  whereas  agri- 
cultural colleges  devote  many  of  their  courses  to  theory  only. 
Though  mentally  trained  in  farm  machinery,  laboratory  tests 
and  other  technical  subjects,  many  privileged  to  graduate  from 
college,  cannot  hitch  a  horse  nor  run  a  plow.  A  college  educa- 
tion, however,  is  necessary  to  those  who  seriously  engage  in  civil 
service  or  research  work  as  a  profession.  Their  experiments, 
when  translated  into  actualities,  materially  advance  the  science 
of  agriculture.  Clearing  farm  land  and  the  production  of  food 
are  not  enough.  Ways  to  raise  better  and  cheaper  crops  must 
be  persistently  and  diligently  studied.  Live  stock  must  be  well 
bred,  the  chemistry  of  soils  understood,  pests  eliminated,  ravages 
of  nature  controlled  and  mistaken  farm  traditions  corrected. 

This  democratic  School  is  unique  in  its  educational  objective. 
The  alteration  of  Avork  and  study,  a  co-operative  plan,  justifies 
itself.  Students,  under  competent  instructors  spend  six  months 
of  each  year  in  classroom,  laboratory  and  machine  shop,  and  six 
months  on  fertile  fields.  Farm  projects  are  rotated,  so  that 
experience  is  gained  in  each  branch  of  agriculture.  Thus,  the 
city-bred  boy  learns  how  to  apply  technical  knowledge,  and 
adjusts  himelf  to  rural  life. 

Our  domestic  departments  now  function  better  than  when 
janitors  were  employed.  Students  who  serve  in  dining-room  ajid 
kitchen,  help  to  reduce  overhead,  and  learn  to  meet  economic

conditions  of  their  own  tomorrow.  Balanced  diets  and  whole- 
some food  are  supervised  by  Mr.  Samuels,  who  serves  as  Manager 
of  the  Domestic  Department,  and  Athletic  Director.  The  School 
infirmary  and  health  of  students  are  under  the  care  of  Dr.  Allan 
H.  Moore,  and  a  competent  nurse.  Prof.  Goodling,  Dean  of  the 
Faculty,  an  outstanding  farmer-educator,  governs  the  School 
with  wisdom  and  understanding.  Forge  and  carpentry  shops 
are  maintained  in  the  farm  mechanics  building,  wherein  the 
latest  models  of  traction  machinery  are  available  for  use  and 
demonstration.  Our  animal  husbandry  department  includes  the 
four  best-known  breeds  of  dairy  cattle — Ayrshire,  Guernsey, 
Holstein  and  Jersey,  also  pedigreed  poultry,  sheep,  beef  cattle 
and  hogs. 

During  the  past  year,  live  stock  improvements  made  at  a 
nominal  cost,  increase  our  teaching  facilities.  Under  the  direc- 
tion of  Prof.  Thompson,  head  of  the  Dairy,  a  number  of  inefficient 
animals  that  consumed  as  much  as  good  producers,  were 
slaughtered  for  table  use,  and  profitable  cattle,  to  increase  quality 
and  quantity  of  milk  were  substituted.  Mr.  Toor,  head  of  the 
Poultry  Department,  converted  an  old  barn  on  the  Isaac  Stern 
Farm  into  a  modern  three-story  laying  house.  Student  labor, 
under  the  supervision  of  Mr.  McQuigg,  instructor  in  farm  shop 
work,  aided  in  these  changes,  which  will  more  than  double  pro- 
duction and  practice  facilities  in  poultry  culture.  The  roadside 
market  has  been  augmented  by  the  sale  of  ice  cream,  produced 
by  students,  as  part  of  their  training  in  dairy  products. 

Through  our  employment  bureau  bronzed  and  hardened 
graduates  find  jobs  with  master  farmers,  save  their  money,  and 
in  time,  buy  their  own  land.  With  good  crops,  industry  and 
additional  money  earned  by  sensible  wives  from  poultry  and 
truck  patches,  mortgages  are  paid  off,  and  successful  farms  built 
up.  The  farm  home  today  is  not  the  drab  and  dreary  place  of 
old.  Machinery  and  labor-saving  devices,  telephone,  radio,  auto- 
mobile and  good  roads  overcome  farm  isolation. 

For  many  years,  it  has  been  my  privilege  to  meet  with  mem- 
bers of  our  Alumni  Chapters  in  New  York,  Philadelphia,  Chicago 
and  Pittsburgh.  It  is  a  pleasure  to  contact  these  graduates  and 
learn  that  social  relations  in  the  rural  districts  today  have  under- 
gone changes.  Artificial  fences  that  formerly  divided  people 
of  different  origins  are  being  broken  down.  These  men,  loyal  to 
their  Alma  Mater,  better  appreciate  the  values  of  Farm  School,

when  on  their  own.  Busy  in  present  pursuits,  they  pause  to 
refresh  pleasant  memories  of  campus  life  and  student  friendships. 
As  industry  became  centralized,  too  many  farmers  left  the 
land,  exchanging  a  priceless  heritage  for  the  more  artificial  life 
in  overcrowded  cities.  Those  of  our  Alumni  on  the  farm,  while 
struggling  just  now  against  odds  to  make  a  living,  are  healthier 
and  happier.  When  they  decided  to  make  agriculture  their 
vocation,  it  was  with  a  realization  that  the  beauty  and  whole- 
someness  of  nature  would  more  than  compensate  them,  and  that 
science  was  an  important  factor  in  bringing  farming  into  line 
with  other  industries.  Trained  for  their  job,  with  brain,  muscle 
and  advantaging  themselves  of  information  supplied  by  the 
Agricultural  Department  at  Washington,  they  eventually  make 
good.  The  more  sunshine  and  air  one  absorbs,  the  stronger  he 
becomes  in  mind  and  body,  the  broader  his  interests,  the  more 
contented  and  well-rounded  his  life.  During  the  past  decade, 
the  number  of  graduates  in  agriculture  has  greatly  increased. 
Over  60  per  cent,  are  now  farming  or  in  some  allied  industry. 

We  believe  this  is  due  to  careful  allotment  of  scholarships. 
In  last  year's  message,  I  discussed  that  phase,  pointing  out  that 
only  farm-minded  boys,  sure  of  themselves  are  accepted.  I 
emphasized  they  must  be  physically,  mentally  and  morally  fit, 
and  have  completed  at  least  two  years  of  high  school  work. 
Native  capacity,  personality  and  ability  to  become  successful  in 
some  branch  of  agriculture  are  carefully  evaluated.  If  con- 
vinced they  are  not  the  farmer  type,  we  offer  advice  that  aids 
in  self-appraisal.  Parents,  too,  are  cautioned  against  undue  in- 
fluence regarding  self-determination. 

In  order  to  help  make  self-supporting  citizens  of  the  physi- 
cally handicapped,  your  Trustees  have  agreed  to  enroll  a  limited 
number  of  students,  sponsored  by  the  Bureau  of  Rehabilitation, 
of  the  Pennsylvania  State  Department  of  Labor  and  Industry. 
Faculty  and  students  have  volunteered  to  co-operate  in  this 
philanthropic  endeavor  to  help  underprivileged  humanity. 
Special  classes  will  be  established  to  give  those  eligible  by  educa- 
tion, their  opportunity  to  qualify  in  some  branch  of  agriculture, 
thus  opening  the  way  to  good  health,  as  well  as  to  a  livelihood. 
It  is  our  earnest  hope  that  the  experiment  to  establish  separate 
short  courses  may  prove  practicable  and  successful. 

Many  factors  of  co-ordination  enter  into  the  successful 
management  of  this  unendowed  institution,  which  educates  and 


12  THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL 

cares  for  the  good  health  of  some  200  humans  throughout  the 
year.  Despite  difficult  financial  problems  and  drastic  reductions 
in  income,  we  are  striving  to  make  ends  meet,  pushing  forward 
in  our  upstream  course,  so  that  the  School  shall  function  satis- 
factorily. 

The  Trustees,  sincere  men  and  women,  endeavor  to  accept 
their  responsibility  optimistically.  Any  spirit  of  defeatism  is 
unthinkable.  Our  program  calls  for  strict  economy  in  every 
department.  To  carry  on,  the  School  must  be  aided  by  friends 
and  patrons  who  appreciate  its  educational  efforts.  By  faith, 
courage  and  concerted  vigilance,  we  hope  to  overcome  budgetary 
deficits,  and  achieve  our  paramount  objective — training  worthy 
boys  to  become  successful  farmers  and  forthright  citizens. 

The  present  emergency  affords  all  school  instructors  an 
opportunity  to  impress  upon  students  economic  consciousness 
and  the  essential  features  of  national  reconstruction — that 
they  may  learn  the  lessons  and  tendencies  of  these  new  times. 
President  Roosevelt  by  his  personality  and  leadership  has  set  an 
inspiring  example  of  energy,  courage  and  hopefulness.  The  re- 
vitalization  of  American  industry,  will  prove  one  of  the  greatest 
acts  of  his  outstanding  administration.  The  best  contribution  we 
can  make  to  the  immediate  situation  is  to  get  behind  him  in  his 
efforts  to  re-establish  confidence  and  prosperity.  We  must  en- 
deavor to  eliminate  fear — replace  timidity  and  excessive  frugality 
with  courage.  Let  us  then  cheerfully  cultivate  patience,  expect 
no  miracles  and  do  our  part  to  help  overcome  depression  by  sub- 
stituting co-operation  for  self-interest. 

In  conclusion,  I  wish  to  thank  our  subscribers  for  their 
generous  support,  also  the  Trustees,  Faculty,  volunteers  and 
staff,  for  helpful  co-operation  during  these  trying  days.  It  is  a 
pleasure  to  express  publicly  this  appreciation  for  their  loyalty 
and  devotion,  which  expedite  our  endeavors  and  make  this  favor- 
able report  possible.  I  make  a  hopeful  plea  for  public  co- 
operation and  financial  support — a  practical  gesture  that  will 
add  strength  to  this  noble  institution  and  allow  it  to  survive 
and  thrive.

THANKS— AND  A  PLEA 

Sincere  appreciation  and  thanks  are  here  extended 
by  the  Board  of  Trustees  to  the  many  friends  who  have 
in  any  way  assisted  the  work  of  the  School  during  the 
year.  To  keep  down  costs,  we  have  omitted  the  lists  of 
individual  contributors,  feeling  assured  our  friends  and 
patrons  will  approve  this  procedure. 

The  importance  of  character  building  and  training 
of  our  youth  for  practical  work  during  these  troublous 
times  cannot  be  overestimated.  The  continued  support  of 
those  who  believe  in  the  value  and  significance  of  this 
endeavor  is  much  needed  and  solicited. 

Had  the  School  larger  endowment,  we  would  be  freer 
to  devote  our  efforts  for  the  greater  benefit  of  our  students 
and  offer  the  advantages  of  this  philanthropic-educational 
institution  to  a  larger  number  of  worthy  applicants. 
Gifts  for  the  purpose  of  endowment  or  through  remem- 
brance in  your  Will,  would  help  assure  the  continuance 
of  the  School. 

Lacking  adequate  endowment,  we  depend  upon  the 
generous  public  to  help  meet  our  budget  for  current  ex- 
penses. Contributions  and  annual  memberships  are, 
therefore,  gratefully  welcomed. 

As  one  generously  interested,  will  you  be  good 
enough  to  pass  this  plea  on  to  your  friends?

There   is    no    custom   more   beautiful    than    that    of    planting:    a    Tree    to 

commemorate  an  event.  The  National  Farm  School  has  planted  many 
Memorial  Trees  for  departed  dear  ones,  and  Festive  Trees  for  births,  con- 
firmations, graduations,  betrothals,  weddings,  anniversaries,  etc.  Each  tree 
is  permanently  marked  with  a  large  steel  card. 

Contributions  for  this  purpose  not  only  establish  a  fitting  memento, 
but  aid  in  the  work  of  the  School. 

Arrangements  for  the  planting  of  trees  may  be  made  by  addressing  The 
National  Farm   School,  1701  Walnut   Street,   Philadelphia,   Pa. 

"He  that  planteth  a  tree  is  a   servant  of  God, 
He  provideth  a  kindness  for  many  generations. 
And  faces  that  he  hath  not  seen  shall  bless  him." 

— Henry  Van  Dyke. 


'Who  plants  a  tree  is  planting  bread. 

Is  planting  shade  from   glare  and  heat; 
He  plants  a  roof  above  his  head 
And  earth  beneath  his  feet."

At  a  special  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
The  National  Farm  School  held  on  January  23,  1933,  the 
death  of 

MORRIS  FLEISHMAN 

on  January  20,  1933,  was  recorded  with  sincere  regret. 

Morris  Fleishman  was  for  many  years  a  devoted 
member  of  the  Active  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  School, 
and  at  the  expiration  of  ten  years  of  service,  was  elevated 
to  the  Honorary  Board.  Interested  in  diverse  communal 
activities,  he  was  during  his  long  connection  with  The 
National  Farm  School,  deeply  concerned  for  the  welfare 
of  that  institution. 

Be  It  Resolved,  That  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  The 
National  Farm  School,  through  this  memorial  Minute, 
express  its  appreciation  of  his  loyalty  and  interest  in 
the  cause,  its  sense  of  bereavement  in  the  untimely  death 
of  a  helpful  worker  and  friend,  and  its  sincere  condolence 
and  sympathy  to  his  esteemed  wife  and  family. 

Be  It  Further  Resolved,  That  this  Resolution  be 
spread  upon  the  Minutes  of  the  meeting;  that  it  be  pub- 
lished in  the  Jewish  press,  in  the  Year  Book  of  the  School, 
and  a  copy  sent  to  the  bereaved  wife  and  family  of  our 
departed  member.

At  a  special  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
The  National  Farm  School,  held  July  26,  1933,  the 
death  of 

JENNIE  LOEB  BLUM 

on  Tuesday,  July  25,  1933,  was  recorded  with  profound 
sorrow,  and  the  following  memorial  minute  was  unani- 
mously adopted: 

Whereas,  Jennie  Loeb  Blum  has  been  a  devoted 
worker  in  the  cause  of  The  National  Farm  School  for 
many  years,  both  as  a  member  of  the  Executive  Board 
of  Trustees  and  of  the  Women's  Auxiliary  Board,  and 

Whereas,  During  her  long  association  with  this  work, 
she  with  her  husband,  Gabriel  Blum,  contributed  gener- 
ously of  their  energy  and  means  to  the  upbuilding  of 
the  School,  and 

Whereas,  Her  sweet  and  lovable  personality,  her 
calm  and  amiable  disposition,  her  beautiful  character, 
her  unselfish  and  charitable  inclinations,  enriched  all  who 
had  the  privilege  of  coming  in  contact  with  her,  and 

Whereas,  Jennie  Loeb  Blum  endeared  herself  as  a 
beloved  and  helpful  associate  in  the  upbuilding  of  this 
institution,  it  is  also  as  a  close  personal  friend  of  many 
of  our  members  and  our  families,  that  we  particularly 
mourn  her  passing  away  from  our  midst. 

Therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  we,  the  Board  of  Trustees,  the 
AVomen's  Auxiliary  Board,  faculty,  staff  and  students 
of  The  National  Farm  School  do  hereby  acknowledge  our 
affectionate  esteem  for  our  beloved  friend,  and  our  deep 
sorrow  at  the  taking  away  of  her  whose  memory  will 
always  remain  an  inspiration  and  a  blessing. 

Be  It  Further  Resolved,  That  a  copy  of  these  Resolu- 
tions be  presented  to  her  husband  and  family,  with  our 
sincere  and  heartfelt  sympathy  in  this  hour  of  their 
sorrowful  bereavement ;  that  they  be  inscribed  in  the 
records  of  the  School,  and  published  in  the  Jewish  press.

16  THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL 

THIRTY-THIRD  ANNUAL  GRADUATION 
March  19,  1933 

"Agriculture  is  facing  better  times,  with  a  united  people 
back  of  President  Roosevelt,"  Charles  Edwin  Fox,  former  Dis- 
trict Attorney  of  Philadelphia  and  President  of  the  Big  Brothers 
Association,  told  the  large  audience  at  the  Thirty-third  Annual 
Commencement  Exercises  of  The  National  Farm  School,  held  on 
the  School's  grounds,  Sunday,  March  19,  1933.  *'In  spite  of 
the  depression  through  which  we  have  been  passing,"  said 
Mr.  Fox,  "the  almost  impossible  has  been  brought  about  by  our 
courageous  new  President  in  less  than  a  week."  Mr.  Fox,  in  his 
Commencement  Address,  paid  tribute  to  the  Founder  of  the 
School,  Dr.  Krauskopf,  and  to  Mr.  Herbert  D.  Allman,  the 
School's  President,  for  the  vision,  effort  and  perseverance  which 
characterized  the  Founder,  and  dominate  his  successor. 

Fifty-five  young  men,  trained  for  positions  of  responsibility 
and  initiative  in  agricultural  endeavors,  comprised  the  Graduat- 
ing Class.  Even  though  unemployment  harassed  graduates  in 
other  vocations  and  professions,  positions  on  farms  had  been 
secured  for  the  young  farmers,  some  of  whom  had  been  placed 
prior  to  Graduation. 

Mr.  Herbert  D.  Allman,  in  his  Farewell  Message  to  the 
graduates,  declared  that  "Farm  recovery  and  relief  are  vital 
to  American  prosperity,"  and  advocated  that  farmers  in  danger 
of  losing  home  and  land  should  be  helped  in  their  temporary 
difficulties  by  the  establishment  of  parity  in  prices  between  agri- 
cultural and  industrial  commodities.  He  averred  that  the  Ameri- 
can farmer,  despite  economic  hardships,  "is  still  better  off  than 
his  city  brother,  and  wants  no  dole."

announced  the  Prize  Awards,  and  assisted  President  Allman  in

FOUNDER'S  DAY 
Sunday,  June  4,  1933 

Founder's  Day  on  Sunday,  June  4,  1933,  marked  the  tenth 
anniversary  of  the  passing  on  of  the  Founder  of  the  School, 
Rev.  Dr.  Joseph  Krauskopf.  In  commemoration  of  this,  an  un- 
usually large  audience,  comprising  some  three  thousand  persons, 
gathered  at  the  School  to  pay  tribute  to  him  and  to  the  institu- 
tion of  his  vision  and  energy.  The  exercises  included  a  speaking 
program,  dedication  of  Memorial  and  Festive  Trees,  band  concert, 
organized  tours  of  inspection  over  the  1,300  acres  which  com- 
prise the  School  plant,  and  entertainments  and  amusements  for 
the  children. 

The  Guest  of  Honor  and  Speaker  of  the  Day,  was  Mr.  Samuel 
M.  Vauclain,  Chairman  of  the  Board  of  the  Baldwin  Locomotive 
Works.  Mr.  Vauclain,  who  was  introduced  by  Mr.  Joseph  H. 
Hagedorn,  Director  of  Supplies  of  Philadelphia,  and  member  of 
the  Board  of  the  School,  opened  his  address  by  paying  a  fine 
tribute  to  his  late  friend.  Dr.  Krauskopf,  "for  having  crowded 
so  much  good  work  into  his  comparatively  short  lifetime."  He 
stated  that  the  founding  and  upbuilding  of  The  National  Farm 
School  were  especially  indicative  of  the  vision,  foresight  and 
humanity  of  a  powerful  influence  wielded  on  behalf  of  his  fellow- 
man.  Mr.  Vauclain  congratulated  the  President  and  Board  for 
the  remarkable  progress  evident  in  carrying  this  work  forward. 
He  applauded  the  object  of  the  School  in  training  boys  for  prac- 
tical, productive  vocations,  and  stated  "no  institution  in  the 
country  sends  out  better  equipped  men  than  The  National  Farm 
School." 

Dr.  Henry  Fisher,  Rabbi  of  Congregation  Beth  Israel, 
Atlantic  City,  N.  J.,  in  the  course  of  a  beautiful  eulogy  said, 
"Dr.  Krauskopf  was  ahead  of  his  generation  in  so  many  things. 
Though  ten  years  have  passed  since  he  achieved  immortality,  his 
spirit  has  remained  in  the  many  places  in  which  and  for  which 
he  labored.  It  remained  especially  here,  and  has  imbued  his 
worthy  followers  to  take  up  the  task  where  he  left  it.  They 
have  carried  on  and,  with  vision  and  courage,  have  built  upon 
his  foundation.  So  that  in  paying  tribute  to  the  Founder,  we 
also  pay  tribute  to  those  avIio  are  forging  ahead  in  his  spirit." 


THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL  21 

The  tree  dedication  ceremonies  were  in  charge  of  Rabbi 
Julian  B.  Feibelman,  of  Philadelphia,  who  eloquently  spoke  of 
the  custom  of  planting  trees  in  honor  of  joyous  occasions,  and 
in  memory  of  departed  dear  ones.  "As  the  tree  grows  and 
flourishes,"  said  Rabbi  Feibelman,  "it  becomes  a  blessing  and 
benefit  to  humanity  and  a  living  symbol  of  the  one  for  whom  it 
is  planted.  No  monument  more  beautiful,  more  lasting,  nor 
more  inspirational  could  be  erected  for  those  whom  we  would 
honor."  (For  list  of  names  for  whom  trees  were  dedicated, 
see  p.  13.) 

Mr.  Herbert  D.  Allman,  President  of  the  School,  who 
formally  welcomed  the  visitors,  also  paid  a  tribute  to  the  Founder. 
He  said  in  part:  "Joseph  Krauskopf  rose  from  an  immigrant 
boy  to  spiritual  leader  of  the  largest  Jewish  congregation  in 
America.  This  outstanding  and  nationally  known  rabbi  was  an 
indefatigable  worker  and  organizer.  His  greatest  achievement 
was  this  flourishing  School,  now  entering  its  thirty-seventh  suc- 
cessful year.  Similar  enterprises,  undertaken  by  Jewish  citizens 
of  other  communities  failed,  but  the  dream  of  our  Founder  was 
realized.  The  Jews  of  America  may  take  a  justifiable  pride  in 
this  practical  gesture  for  agricultural  advancement  through 
which  worthy  boys,  irrespective  of  creed,  lovers  of  the  out-of- 
doors,  receive  the  benefits  of  a  practical  and  scientific  training." 

Mr.  Harry  B.  Hirsh,  Honorary  Chairman  of  the  Board, 
presided,  and  Dr.  Wm.  H.  Fineshriber,  of  Philadelphia,  pro- 
nounced the  opening  prayer  and  closing  benediction. 

Mr.  Edwin  H.  Silverman  was  Chairman  of  the  Committee 
on  Arrangements. 

The  entire  program  w^as  held  out-of-doors.  The  spacious 
campus,  beautiful  in  the  young  green  of  early  summer,  together 
with  a  rare  June  day,  made  a  beautiful  setting  for  the  enjoyment 
and  interest  of  the  events. 


22  THE  NATIONAL  FARM  SCHOOL 

THIRTY-SIXTH  ANNUAL  MEETING 
October  15,  1933 

The  Thirty-sixth  Annual  Meeting  and  celebration  of  the 
Succoth  Harvest  Festival  were  held  in  the  Louchheim  Auditorium 
on  the  grounds  of  The  National  Farm  School,  Sunday  afternoon, 
October  15,  1933. 

A  beautiful  autuhin  day  brought  the  usual,  large  gathering 
of  friends  to  the  School  to  listen  to  the  reports  of  the  accom- 
plishments and  progress  of  the  institution  during  the  past  year. 

•The  meeting  was  presided  over  by  Adolph  Eichholz,  Esq., 
Chairman  of  the  Board.  Mr.  Herbert  D.  Allman,  President  of 
the  School,  delivered  his  Annual  Message,  printed  in  full  on 
pp.  5-12  of  this  book.  Professor  C.  L.  Goodling,  Dean,  made  a 
brief  report,  of  the  administration  of  the  School,  the  work  of  the 
Faculty  and  students.  He  referred  to  changes  instituted  in  the 
curriculum,  which  it  is  believed  will  result  in  a  broader  training 
for  the  students.  He  reported  progress  in  the  various  School 
and  farm  departments.  As  an  indication  of  the  type  of  work 
being  done,  he  announced  that  the  School's  herd  of  Ayrshire 
cattle  led  all  herds  in  the  United  States  for  production  during 
the  past  month. 

Brief  talks  were  made  by  Rabbi  Julian  B.  Feibelman, 
Mr.  Joseph  H.  Hagedorn,  Mr.  Frank  G.  Binswanger  and  Mr. 
Harry  B.  Hirsh,  members  of  the  Board. 

A  business  meeting  followed  the  speaking  program,  at  which 
Mr.  Herbert  D.  Allman  was  re-elected  President  of  the  School, 
Mr.  Joseph  H.  Hagedorn,  Vice-President,  and  Mr.  Isaac  H.  Sil- 
verman, Treasurer.  The  following  were  re-elected  members  of 
the  Board  for  a  term  of  three  years :  Drue  N.  Allman,  Isadore 
Baylson,  H.  Richard  Hano,  Stanley  H.  Hinlein,  Louis  A.  Hirsch, 
Mrs.  Jos.  Krauskopf,  Judge  Theodore  Rosen,  Edwin  H.  Silver- 
man, Dr.  Leon  Solis-Cohen  and  James  Work.  Mrs.  A.  J.  Bam- 
berger was  elected  for  a  period  of  two  years  to  fill  the  unexpired 
term  of  Mrs.  Gabriel  Blum,  who  passed  away  during  the  year. 

At  the  close  of  the  exercises,  the  visitors  were  taken  on  an 
inspection  of  the  School's  buildings  and  grounds. 

Concerts  by  the  student  band  under  the  direction  of  Lieut. 
Joseph  Frankel,  of  Philadelphia,  and  exhibits  of  the  products 
of  the  harvests  were  part  of  the  day's  program.

LANSDALE       -       PENNA. 


THIS  RACK  is  unique  in  construction  and  the 
many  uses  to  which  it  may  be  applied.  As  a  de- 
vice for  preserving,  and  having  for  instant  use  a 
number  of  large  maps,  it  cannot  be  surpassed. 

For  filing  blueprints  or  tracings  in  such  a 
manner  that  they  may  be  found  in  an  instant  is 
one  of  the  strong  points  of  this  rack  and  any  one 
employing  high-salaried  men  cannot  afford  to  be 
witliout  one.  In  schools  and  colleges  they  are  in- 
dispensable to  aU  who  have  used  them.  City  and 
Borough  Enginee:s  finJ  tham  useful,  as  well  as 
public  and  private  libraries,  churches,  and  Sunday 
chools.  They  are  used  by  Railway  and  Telephone 
Companies;  by  the  Street  Railway,  Gas,  Trust 
Companies,  Standard  and  otlier  Oil  Companies, 
Publisliing  Houses,  and  many  business  offices  where 
time  is  money,  and  to  do  without  a  Jenkins' 
Manifold  Revolving  Map  Rack  would  be  a  positive 
loss. 

They  are  extensively  used  by  the  U.  S.  Gov- 
ernment in  the  Executive  and  Judicial  branches; 
and  in  the  Agriculture,  Treasury,  Army,  Na\7  and 
other  departments.
