VIM. B. HACKENBURG DEAD.
Great Throng at Funeral at Jewish
Hospital.

Philadelphia Nearly two thou
sand persons attended the funeral
last Sunday morning of William B.
Hackenburg, at the Jewish Hos
pital, of which he had been president
more than forty years and where he
died last Thursday. Officers of the
Grand Lodge of Masons of Pennsyl-
vania, of which Mr.. Hackenburg
had been treasurer; hundreds of
prominent business and professional
men, and host of other friends
viewed the body, which lay in state
in the officers room in the Home
for the Aged on the hospital
grounds. Many beautiful floral
pieces surrounded the coffin.
The services, in accordance with
memorandum request found
among Mr.. Hackenburg's papers,
were of the simplest character, there
being no eulogy nor any display.

would like to be, at the front. AS
the matter stands, as many are there
as can get there. Their spirit is
fine and high. They are doing their
bit with the rest of their menaced
and imperiled brothers, in the great
cause of democracy. The rabbi con-
cludes his circular as follows:
II would, therefore, advise you
to confer with the day leaders of
your synagog, SO that whenever
possible arrangements be made
throughout the land as shall release
at least one minister in each dis
trict from his congregational duties,
and enable the members of our
faith to take their place in national
service"

BRITISH RABBIS WANT TO
FIGHT.

The clause relating to clergymen
has been withdrawn from the new
English Man-Power Act, but judg
ing from a circular sent out on the
subject of voluntary enlistment for
n-combatant military service, by
the Chief Rabbi to the Jewish clergy
of the United Kingdom, it is plain
that there are no slackers among
the members of that order. The cir
cular insists that none are more anx-
ious to answer the national call in
this terrible crisis through which
Britain and all free peoples are
passing than the Anglo Jewish clergy.
1t is pointed out that some have
now, for number of years, been do
ing chaplain's work at the front,
others are fighting. and but for the

almost every institution for children's

The Jewish Comment of Balti-

When Louis Levine, who was an
able writer and an ,enterprising jour
nalist, after giving to the paper his

few years ago, it was taken over
by an editorial Board of Reform
rabbis. They conducted vigorous
and aggressive anti-Zionist cam
paign-a wide departure from it's
previous platform. In it's valedic-

made practical use of the day to
augment the National Fund for the
redemption of the soil of Palestine,
taking as his slogan, docs the De-
struction (Hurban) distress you?
Then aid in Rebuilding"
Jewish life, to many, has assumed
new meaning in the light of the Brit
ish Declaration for a Homeland in
Palestine. What then should our
attitude be this Tisha Dab?
The Talmud narrates that Rabbi
Akiba and some companions, while
passing the Temple Mount and the
ruins of the Temple, saw fox
sinking in what had been "The
Holy of Holes" Whereat his COM
panions wept, while Rabbi Akiba
exulted. Each asked the other to
explain. Naturally, the other Rab-
bis declared they wept, grieving over
the Temples destruction and the
"Golus ha-Shechinah." But how
can you 1augh?" they asked Akiba.
In reply he quoted two prophe-
cies-one of Israels downfall, "The
mountain of Zion which is desolate,
foxes walk upon it," and another
prophecy of Jerusalem's rebuilding.
"You see that the forecast of woe
has been fulfilled, why then will not
the promise of happiness?" And the
companions of Akiba were consoled.
DR.. Solomon Solis-Cohen, of Phil
adelphia, has embodied the above
narrative in a beautiful poem
Lines for the Ninth. of Ab," in
which he sings:
my thoughts, on this day of sad
memories,
Turn not back to the past in despair,
But forward in hope, to the future
Where visions of glory shine fair"
What better sentiment with which
to observe the Ninth of Alb, than
hopefully looking forward to lions
rebuilding and laboring for it? In
deed, "Does the Destruction Distress
You? Then Aid in Rebuilding"

oh, many lofty mountains
In foreign lands I've seen
Stand frozen in the winter,
In summer rich and green.
Their peaks are white and mighty,
With never melting snow,
And down their great abysses,
The bursting waters go.
Yes, grand they are and splendid,
But strangers they become,

And the long, low hills Of Home!

HIah-Prleed Feed.

Many of those thinking Of engaging
in poultry keeping are deferred by the
high price Of feed. As they cannot
figure a profit on poultry raised on
grain costing around So a hundred
pounds, they conclude that as long as
such prices last poultry cannot be
raised at a profit. That is true in re-
gard to many cases where a profit
could be made with feed at lower
prices, but in many more cases poultry
will pay eve If feed prices should go
much higher than now.
Most Of the poultry produced in the
United States comes from general
farms where the birds live largely on
wastes that would not be used at all II
the poultry did not eat them. AS long
as a farmer does not feed any con-
siderable quantity of salable grain to
his poultry the prices of feed do not
directly affect his profits from poultry.
Indirectly, high prices of feed-tend-
ing to curtall production among those
who buy most of their poultry feed
benefit the farmer by raising prices of
poultry and eggs in the general
markets.
When feed prices are high small
back yard fiocks can usually be kept
at a profit by feeding as much waste
as can be obtained, striving for the
best possible egg production, and sell
Ing eggs direct to the trade that pays
the best price. The same methods
may also enable a specialist in market
egg production with a large flock to
keep his plant running when with less
efficient methods he would be forced
to discontinue.
Growers of standardized poultry fol-
breeding and exhibition purposes car
usually operate no matter how high
the prices of feed may go. If Their
profits are much lower than normal I'm,
der such conditions, they know thai
eventually either prices of feed will
come down or prices on high-class stOcI
and eggs will go up, and in the Ions
u their profits under different condl
lions will be equallzed.

OBTAIN RESULTS
IN FEEDING HENS
Only Grain That It Is Necessary
to Crack for Mature Fowls
Is Corn.
GIVE SEVERAL MEALS A DAY
Dry Mash Method lie Most Popular and
Convenient With Poultry Keepers
Who Are Absent From Home
During the Day.

The best results in feeding hens
for eggs are obtained by giving the
birds several meals a day In such form
that they eat about equal amounts OF
soft and hard feeds. When 1t is not
convenient to hand-feed them in this
way, very good results may be obtain
ed by any plan that furnishes enough
feed, in the right variety, under such
conditions that they do not gorge them
selves at any time, and take exercise
enough to keep them in good condition.
Soft feeds for poultry are ground
grains and b%y-prOducts, vegetables, the
flesh parts Of animal feed substances,
and table scraps, which are a mixture
of such things. Hard feeds are whole
and cracked grains, and the mineral
parts Of animal feeds. =
Mixture lie Mash.
A soft feed mixture is called a mash.
Washes are fed either in a moist or
in a dry state. The form in which the
mash is given determines the m
Of feeding 1t, and-tO some extent
the method OF feeding the hard grain.
A moist mash is usually given rs n
OF two or more regular meals, and In
such quantity that II Is all consumed
within n short time. Table scraps With
enough ground feed to absorb any eX-
cess Of moisture make a good moist
mash. A dry mash is usually fed In a
hopper from which the birds can eat
at will at all times or at least, for sew
eral hours daily.
The dry mash method is most con
venient for poultry keepers who are
away from home all day, and in short
winter days cannot attend to their
hens by daylight. With an ample sup
ply of dry mash in a hopper, a days
allowance Of hard grain In the litter
Of straw or other light material COW
ering the floor of the coop, a piece Of
cabbage or Of mangel wurzel where
the hens can eat what they want OF
1t, fresh water, and supplies of oyster
she'll and grit in small hOppers, pro-
vision has been made for all needs Of
the hens, and they will lay well,
though not, perhaps, quite as many
eggs as when handled two or three
times daily.
Recipe for Dry Mash.
A good recipe for a dry mash is:
Equal parts by weight, cOrnmeal.
ground oats, wheat bran, and beef
scraps. A good moist mash may be
made Of the same meal ingredients
with only one-third the amount Of
beef scraps, because a larger proper
ton of concentrated animal feed in a
moist mash may cause bowel troubles.
With such a dry mash about a pint
Of hard grain mixture 1.-TWO parts
cracked corn, one part oats by weight
to ten birds is required. With a moist

them returned. for review. Army or

martial held to it's original sentence
and nothing remains for the depart
ment to do but to carry it out.

Important Debate Started
by Chamber of Deputies in
Paris Some Objection.

Paris, March, 1S.-An impor-
tant debate seems to be in pros
Pecs in the chamber of deputies
on the subject of reprisals for
aerial attacks on Paris. Re-
Gently there has been a revival
of the discussion concerning
the possibility of an agreement
on the part of the belligerents
to cease reprisals of all kinds,
particularly air raids over open
towns outside the fighting zone.
This discussion originated in the
report that the Central powers had
made a proposal to this effect through
neutrals, at the same time agreeing to
give up the use of gas and liquid fire
at the front. Since that time the
Germans have intensified their air
raids. instead OF taking a step in the
opposite direction.
In France there always has been
strong element hostile to lombard
ment of any but purely military OBJ
jectivSs. This element, though di-
minished in size, is still active and is
certain to bring on a debate if il
should appear that the government
has decided to make reprisals.
Premier Clemenceau has been quot
ed variously on the subject, but gen.
orally is understood not to be in favor
of reprisals in the way of attacks on
women and children in undefended
towns. He is believed to favor all
raids made as far as possible within
the German frontier, but strictly on
establishments of military value.
The Interpretation prepared by
Deputy Mayeres, Radical Socialist
will be presented on the return of the
premier. Abel Ferry, Radical Social
list deputy and an active member Of
the army committee, who has inter.
vened frequently during the war in
regard to important questions. an
nounces that he will ask the govern
! ment to propose to the enemy
through neutrals, that all reciprocal
action of the various aviation corps
be limited to the zone of lombard
| ment by cannon of the longest range
The objection is raised, however
that Nancy, Dunkirk and Rheim.
would thus be at the mercy of the
| Germans, wher cas- the Allies could
reply only against Belgian, French
| or Alsatian towns.
