THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD


; it wrong for Col. Roosevelt to be
proud of his Dutch blood? Is it
wrong for me to be interested in my
English tradition? Does Mr.. Cou-
dert's French culture hurt his Amer
icanism? No. Such backgrounds
do not lessen patriotism. They en-
rich it. Between two Jews, one Of
whom takes no interest in the not
able and exceptional qualities Of his
race, and the other of whom is alive
with the beauties of Isaiah and with
the vision of further services rem
dered to man by Jewish Spiritual
thought, do not tell me that the for
mer will make finer, more elevated,
more contributive American than the
latter, If three million idealists live
in Palestine they will hold up
torch, needed in a world tending to-
ward uniformity. They cannot pos
sibly by the vision they portray
tempt the American Jews away from
devotion to the best in American
civilization; the suggestion of such
a danger is ridiculous enough to
carry it's refutation on it's face
Mr. Kahn's remaining argument
is that persecution, in those coun-
tries where Jews are now prosecuted,
would be excused and increased by
Zionism. In my opinion the exact
opposite would happen. We hope
to bring about a great spiritual
broadening through the Covenant Of
the nations. Will the Americans
want to throw out the Poles or
Czechs because there are now to be
a free Poland and free Bohemia?
Will these people be the worse for
looking across the seas to a free
homeland of their language and their
peculiar culture? Why should the
Jews alone be hurt by knowing that
the country to which they trace
their history is still there, aspiring
and free?
Let us close with a word about
the immediate method of securing
and safeguarding this home of cul
ture and of aspiration. I have been
interested in Zionism for many
years, but during the last four years
my attention has been given particu
larly to the political aspect of it as
affected by the world war, and dur
ing those four years I have been
discussing it with influential Jews

STOP SHAKING HANDS NEW
EDICT BY HEALTH EXPERTS
Worse Than Using Common Towel.
Time-Worn Custom Held
Spreader of Disease.

stop shaking hands September II"
is the startling edict Of DR.. H. w. Hill,
Executive Secretary of the NJ. P. H. A..
Do you ask, are August 30th and 31st
given as two days of grace for old
friends to meet at the State Fair and
shake hands for the last time or is
this an outgrowth of the after the
First of July" ruling?
Neither guess is correct Septem-
ber1 is named as convenient start
ing date for lodging infection and for
Initiating the chief means of prevent
ing a recurrence Of the influenza cpl
demic which proved so disastrous last
year
Hand shaking does seem harmless
token Of friendship and good spirit,
but it's harmlessness merits a small
place in our opinion when we consider
that 80 per cent Of all infectious dis
eases, with one exception, are spread
by the hands.
Let US compare the hand shake and
the roller towel in principle and see
whether or not we can justify our rig
idness with the one and disregard of
the other. Persons will stroll through
a crowd shaking hands right and left
with never thought of the danger
The same persons would doubtless
become very indignant if presented
with a towel on which others in the
crowd had wiped their hands. Yet
their own hands are not as clean as
the towel
You would not use a towel someone
else had used even though the person
had used just after washing! Yet you
will shake hands and almost always
long after the hands had been washed!
Why regard the roller towel as a dis
grace while you tolerate the hand
shake?
If we could boil our hands, as we
do towels and linen which are likely
to hold germs of infectious disease.
we could no doubt reduce infections to
large degree but until some genius
discovers a satisfactory disinfectant
for the hands, hand shaking must
suffer the fate of the roller towel and
the public drinking cup and receive
the boycott in all hygienic society.
Begin September land stop shak
ing hands.

GARDNER SAYS
EFF DRlIlS FAILED
Mime. Man Va. Unable To
Get Relief From Trouble Un-
til He Took Tanlac.

my efforts to find medicine or
treatment that would overcome my
trouble failed completely until I
commenced taking Tanlac," said Earl
O. Freeberg, well known gardner
who lives at 705 Kenwood Parkway.
Minneapolis, while talking to a Tanlac
representative the other day.
Il had a bad attack OF pneumonia
about eighteen months ago." continu-
ed Mr.. Freeberg, land up to the time
l commenced taking Tanlac I had
been having pretty tough time of
it ever since. For about three months
after getting up from this spell was
not able to do any work at all. I fin
ally improved to the extent that I
was able to do little work and then
the Flu hit me, and this just about
put the finishing touch. to me. Well,
l managed to pull through this trouble
and after being in bed for several
| weeks I was able to be up again, but
| my entire system was left in terrible
weak, rundown condition I didn't
have any appetite to speak of and
what little did eat didn't seem to
give me any strength or energy to
get about very much, and the different
medicines took didn't seem to do me
any good at all.
II had been reading so much about
| Tanlac, and what It had done for so
many other people, so I decided to.
| give it trial myself. I didn't think
it was possible for anybody to improve
as fast as l did after I began taking
Tanlac. Why, my troubles have been
completely overcome, and am so we'll
and strong now that I not only put in
full time at my work every day, but
l work in my garden at home until
dark every night. have such a big
appetite that three hearty meals
day doesn't satisfy me, and I have to
eat a little between meals. In fact,
I just feel fine all the time and never
enjoyed better general health in my
life. have induced good many peo-
pie to take Tanlac, and every one of
them have been greatly benefited by
it, and certainly take pleasure in rec

FARMERS SAVES MUCH
THROUGH N. D. LAWS
IS Cents a Bushel on Wheat
on Dockage- $3.50 Hail
Insurance.

Fargo, N. D-How farm business
is affected by political action is we'll
illustrated by the experience of a
North Dakota farmer living near the
Minnesota-North Dakota line
j. L. Richardson, Well-knOWn Non
partisan league organizer. reports his
story as follows:
while in Belmont township Mon
day we met E. Olson, a farmer, who
had been partly hailed out, for which
he had received $685. insurance. He
had just threshed and took a load of
lightweight wheat over to Climax,
MINI. He was offered $165 bushel
for it. He declined the offer and took
the grain home and then to Buxton,
N. D., where he got 81 bushel for it,
and in addition received 81 for the
dockage value in the load.
Farmers Learn Grades.
"This farmer got 1886 on account
Of the North Dakota hail insurance
law He would not have got this in
Minnesota. He got 35 cents more a
bushel for his wheat on account of
the North Dakota grain-grading law.
He got 81 on one load Of wheat on &C.
count Of the North Dakota dockage
laws. At this rate the dockage on
four loads would pay for his mem
bership in the Nonpartisan league for
two years. The balance would be vel.
vet
"We met a number of farmers who
had sent samples of their wheat to
the agricultural college and had them
tested. New when they sell, they
know what grade it is and what dock
age they should be paid for. It will
pay for all farmers to keep themselves
posted on the grain-grading law and
it's benefits"

DANGER IN :RAPIDLY ss..... .ss
RISING LAND PRICES
United States Department of Agri-
culture Warns Farmers of
Probable consequences.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 1O.|EPrices
OF farming lands In many sections OF
the United States. especially IN Iowa
and the other Corn Belt States, have
risen with such rapidity that serious
consequences may be expected, espe-
clally with the return of normal con-
ditions. This is warning to farmers
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Spectators, many of them business
men OF the cities, in many cases have
reaped big profits by buying and re-
selling without making any substan-
tlal contribution in return Farmers
have sold land at prices that seemed
high, and then have bought again at
still higher figures, losing thousands
of dollars in the exchange. The bona
fide farmer who purchases land at
present high prices may find the re-
turns on his investment abnormally
small ii earnings should decline when
normal conditions are restored, and
may find himself seriously embarrass-
ed IT he has financed the purchase
largely on credit.
That is a summary of the situation
as 1t Is viewed by investigators Of the
Bureau Of Farm Management sent by
the department into the regions Of
most marked speculative activity.
Here is summary of their advice
which is broadly applicable probably
to the majority of farmers in the re-
g1ons affected, though it may not fit
every Individual case:
Much of the present speculative
activity has been due to the fact that
spectators have been able to catch
some farmers unawares, buying their
farms at a much lower figure than
was justified in relation to prices in
adjoining regions. Therefore you
should be careful about selling to a
Spectator who is buying to sell again.
II 1t Is worth more to him it probably
may be worth more to you. If you
own a farm and desire to continue
farming be very sure before selling
that you can obtain out Of the pro-
ceeds OF your sale as good a farm as
you have sold.
II you desire to purchase farm you
should be very sure that the price you
pay is fully justified by the probable
net earnings Of the farm when con-
dltions become more normal
Be careful that the buyer of your
farm is able to complete his payment
on March first in case he fails to re-
sell. In general it is safe to require
an initial cash payment of one-third
the sale price.
Be cautious about specializing
yourself. Especially do not buy on
narrow cash margin with the expec-
tation that you will be able to sell and
obtain the necessary means of settling
your account. You may not be able
to effect a sale. A land boom may
collapse suddenly.

BOYS-GIRLS CLUBS
MAKE GREAT RECORD

Seventy five Of the SO counties of
Minnesota were represented In the
boys and girls club breadmaking con-
tests at the state fair in the demons
tration. Several cans of fruits and
vegetables were marked 100 by the
judges and the exhibit as whole
surpassed any other of the kind at
the fair. The quality of the corn ex-
hibits made by the young farmers was
the best since this particular contest
was started several years ago. The
poultry clubs staged their first demon
stration. All the pigs but one entered
in the pig club competition were from
registered stock, whereas only two Of
all the entries in the first state con-
test were registered animals. 300
girls from 70 counties were housed at
the agricultural college and prepared
their own meals at a maximum cost
of Is cents for breakfast and Is cents
for dinner. One hundred fifty boys
were in camp at the fair grounds. It
was great week for the young farm
club members.
