THE JEWISH CONGRESS.

Let us at the outset express our
qualification at the step taken at the
Jewish Congress in Philadelphia last
week, when this great and important
organization placed itself upon what
we hope will be permanent basis for
all time. There is need for such an in
stitution as the American Jewish Con-
gress in the life of our communities in
this great republic. We have in the
past ventured to point out the main
reasons for this, our belief, and re-
gard this as an opportune moment to
repeat what is to US the chief factor
sustaining our contention. The Con-
gress is representative of all shades
and directions of American Jewish
thought, and is recruited upon thor
ouroughly democratic basis and princi-
lie. This is the reason which in our
\ ,inion demanded the permanent con-
tmuance of the organization.
At Philadelphia, if the reports of
the Industrious pressmen may be ac-
copied, stirring scenes attended the
holding of the Congress session. Such
concomitants are inevitable in the con-
duct of democratic organization. But
underlying the outbursts, we fancy we
discover a deeper-seatel cause. The
Congress delegation at Paris was wise
in its day and hour. The point Of view
of 1919, when these delegates were
in Paris, is not that of 1920. The world
has changed, and with it the Jewish
world. These considerations should
have, of course, weighed with the per-
sons assembled at Philadelphia last
week. That they did not is regrettab'e
-ascribable to the workings of i'm
perfect human nature, but sufficiently
explanatory of the pent up feelings
and expressinos which there sought
and found a vent.
Now that congress has concluded
its work in respect of the temporary
emergency which called forth its ex-
istence, we trust the organization will
steadily and expertly devote itself to
the great tasks confronting all jew
ry with singleness Of aim. OF the need
of this transcedant service we have al
ready spoken by and large. The fu-
ture will demonstrate whether the or
ganization possesses the qualities re-
quired for the solution of the prob
lens which press upon it. We think
the Congress has the force at its com.
man. to absolve itself brilliantly Of
its mission and duty. So we wish it
"Godspeed" on the task which, under
the capable leadership Of Nathan
straus, it has set itself to accomplish.

The principal features Of the con-
ference will be the adoption of the
American Women Zionists' program
on worldwide scale, to enlist every
available Jewish woman in the speedy
upbuilding of Palestine, now that it is
definitely assured as the Jewish Ma
tional Homeland through the mandate
granted Great Britain by the Supreme
Council. One of the most interesting
features Of the women's work in this
country is the Palestine Supplies De-

cANADA's FOOD SUPPLY ASSET
or Her Agricultural Resources Neces-
sary to Prosperity of United States.

american farmers in Canada are
among the best assets of the American
people. They are producing food, which
you and the world must have. If we
had enough of them, most Of your high
cost of living would disappear was
the statement of Robert J. C. Stead,
Canadian author and publicist, in the
course of an address recently delivered
before the Chicago Rotary club. Mr..
Stead further declared that the develop.
ment of Canada is vitality necessary to
the prosperity of the United States, and
offered some unique and convincing
arguments to prove that buying, and
not selling. is the animating urge of
modern business.
Selling has become a fetish OF the
business world" said Mr.. Stead, "We
allow ourselves to believe that the
great purpose of commercial life is to
sell As matter of fact the great pur-
pose which animates business transac-
tions is the desire TO buy To sell is to
paw WIN buiilr,t btN w bhN 10 w Nv
quire things, which is fundamental
human passion" Celebrating this argu-
ment, Mr.. Stead pointed out that the
great part which Canada must play in
the future prosperity of the United
States lay in Canada's ability to supply
the American people with the necessi
ties of life. There need be no shortage
OF -four or meat butter or eggs, wool or
potatoes if Cauada's agricultural re-
sources were even half developed. And
it is the shortage of these very things
which has brought living conditions
throughout the world to point of cri-
sis. The man who supplies you with a
million dollars worth of food does you
a greater service than the man who
takes from you, say, a million dollars
worth of automobiles said Mr.. Stead, |
although perhaps you never before
looked at il from that angle Food the |
world must have, even if it walks TO I
work Food Canada can produce in al !
most unlimited quantities, provided the
necessary msn-power is brought TO bear

inator of the Plumb plan for public
ownership of the railroads, in address
ing the annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. They cannot
be otherwise, he said, under the present
system in the United States which sur
rounds them with temptation"
The Plumb plan, the speaker assert

it would relieve the arrangements of
railroads of "the damaging temptation
and give them an opportunity to be
honest" as they would be under the

| diligent poultrymen dispose of the
surplus males Immediately after the
last setting of eggs is made, and
avoid the large loss due to low quail
| ty eggs.
This is fine as far as it goes, but
the majority of the eggs are produced
by the small poultry raisers through
out the country. No great improve
ment can be made until greater at
tention is paid to the quality of the
egg by small producers.
The presence of the male in the flock
does not increase egg production. In
fact, the production is less in flocks
where males are held throughout the
summer, 1t is, therefore, more profit
able for owners to discard the males
Immediately after the Matching season.
The second advantage of disposing of
the males early in the year, is the
saving of feed The average male will
consume between 90 and ITO pounds
of feed in year. This means around
$3.50 to S. feed cost per year. By
selling the males one can eliminate
this expense. This feed expense
amounts to a considerable sum where
one has any large number of males.
Many people imagine that because
they allow their flock to run at large.
this amount of feed is reduced per bird
and that the expense is not as great.
The point is, every rooster disposed
of means some saving, and the feed
that the rooster would consume if al
lowed TO live, would go toward feed
ing the hens, which in turn means
more eggs.
Another advantage in disposing of
the males is the housing space saved.
This does not amount to much where
only one or two males are kept, but in
large focks where 25 or more males
are kept in the breeding season. il
amounts TO considerable. The selling
off of the surplus males will give more
room for the fattening of surplus cock
erels and hens or an extra pen for
growing pullets.
In cities and villages those keeping
poultry should always eliminate the
surplus males This is to be recon-
mended in view of the fact that as
general thing the yard room is lim-
tied and all yard space must be used
to best advantage. Again all feed is
purchased and fowls confined consume
more feed proportionally.
II. A. d. Leggett, poultry speciaE
ist for the agricultural extension
service Of the University of Vermont
and state agricultural college, recon-
mends that all surplus males be dis
posed of by June Is or as soon after
wards as possible. 1t is to your adj
