followers, which only an overlooking
measure Of idealism and an abundance
of selfiess intelligent devotion to a
cause are capable of engendering.

Dr.. Deinard was only forty eight
years Of age and so much might have
been expected from him had he been
allowed to continue until at least
three score and ten, but then who
knows? Maybe it is best that in Gods
scheme of universal existence mans
life is often measured not by years
but by accomplishments and by the
standards Of power and influence for
good.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

Inc sorrow caused by the death or
the genial scholar, leader and COM
munal worker, DR.. Samuel N. Deinard,
is still too fresh and too keen to per-
nit an adequate estimate of the enor-
nous loss which American Israel has
suffered. His life was as remarkable
as his labors were useful and fruit
full. He was born in the Lithuanian
city of Rossein, which has been for
generations a city Of Jewish learning.
His father, David Mendel, who now is
an octogenarian and lives in Jaffa,
Palestine, is recognized Hebrew
scholar and from him Doctor Deinard
as a child Of four received the first
rudiments of his Hebrew education.
Before he had yet reached the age of
ten his parents immigrated to Pales-
tine and took young Samuel with them
and it is there in the Holy City that
he was first brought into contact with
modern learning and modern ideas.
For he was endowed with splendid
faculties and absorbed knowledge with
marvellous quickness and readiness.
He therefore soon acquired a thor
ough knowledge of the Arabic Ian
guage and continuing Hebrew studies
at home, he entered the Won Laemmel
school where a secular education sup
plemented his sacred studies.
But facilities for advanced educa-
ton were limited in the Holy Land at
that time, and so at the age when
American boys are generally consid-
cred mere children he was sent to
Germany to pursue higher courses of
learning. His excellent foundation
coupled with a fine grasp and very
adaptable nature enabled him soon
to enter, the Lehrer Seminar at
Cologne and there he imbibed great
measure of the desirable part of Ger
man culture with astonishing rapidity.
In the meantime his fathers cousin,
the famous scholar, author and bibli-
ographer, Mr.. Ephraim Deinard, had
come with his family to America and
young man of seventeen, had learned
to America and so about thirty years
ago he came to New Jersey, where his
fathers cousin resided, and after a
short stay there he went to Philadel.
phia and entered the University of
Pennsylvania.
When he had completed the course
at that institution of learning and had
received the degree of Bachelor of
Arts he began to cast about him for
career 1t was clear to his mind from
the very outset that the only pursuit
which would satisfy his craving for
knowledge and idealism was one that
offered the possibility of further study
and the opportunity for communal
work. He therefore chose the rab-
binate, for which he was so admirably

DR.. Deinard'S Life and LabOrS
AN APPRECIATION BY DIR. MENDEL sILBER

ntCeQ DOCn by temperament ana train
ing. His first position was in Terre
Haute, Ind, where he remained about
four years, continuing his studies dur
ing that time at the Depau Univer-
sity.
In 1901 he accepted a position
at the Southside Hebrew congregation
in Chicago where he remained one
year. During that year residence in
Chicago he pursued studies at the
university and was given the degree
of Master of Arts, this degree form
ing the basis later for the higher de-
gree of Doctor of Philosophy.
From his residence in Chicago
dates his fame and recognition ma
tionally as scholar, writer and
speaker. For his work in large city
with it's many opportunities he soon
came to be recognized and his services
came to be sought not only in Chica-
go but in other cities as we'll. The
inevitable result was that the follow
ing year he was called to a new field
of labor and the reform congregation
in Minneapolis which extended that
call, together with the entire Jewish
community Of that city, reaped the
fruits Of his blessed administration
extending over the period of twenty
years and now justly and deeply
mourns it's sad and irreparable loss.
This is of course a mere resume of
DR.. Demands life, and only a bare
outline Of his career. To present with
any degree of adequacy and justice
a Characterization Of his worth and
work would require more composure
and sober contemplation than rela-
tive and the closest of friends can
command. His literary activities,
whether as editor of weekly papers or
as contributor to learned Hebrew and
English periodicals or as author of
books and pamphlets, all disclose the
characteristics that were typical of
his writings strength and directness
Of style and diction, keen analysis
and close reasoning, yet benevolent
and good natured with it all. In fact,
benevolence and good natured humor
was so much part Of him that even
when he had occasion to engage in
polemics (and he possessed a rare
gift and mastery along such lines)
measure Of happy humor was never
wanting. AS teacher and leader he
was we'll nigh irresistible, and could
sway audiences with equal power and
magnetism, whether from the pulpit
of the Reform Temple or from that Of
the Orthodox Synagog or from the
platform of a lecture hall. AS a
teacher and as a communal worker,
whether in the capacity Of professor
at a university or as charity worker
or as Zionist leader and organizer in
war work, or in the peaceful endeav-
ors of civic betterment he was always
able to engender that zeal, devotion

Americas Meat-Eaters.

Take it the world over and the an
nual consumption of meat amounts to
80 pounds per capita. Here in these
United States, however, the figure rises
to $50 pounds a head, declares the
Los Angeles Times. The American
is the worlds champion meat eater.
The average citizen Of the United
States will every year eat more than
his weight in red beef. The English
man is supposed to he a terror in
the meat line, but he only takes on
an averageNof 120 pounds year. OF
course. the vegetarian will insist that
the Americans are the lowest type of
civilization and are a feeble, pulse
less people tottering to the grave. But
if they can do what they have done
under the incubus Of $50 pounds of
beef every year, what could they not
accomplish if they would only leave
meat alone? The people who have
banished booze from the land should
now arise in their might and absolve
America from the curse Of tlet
mignon.

ONIONS MUST BE WELL DRIED
Crop Should Be Thoroughly Cured Be-
fore They Are Placed in Storage,
Says Department.

Onions should be well ripened and
thoroughly cured in the field, in drying
sheds, or on slat trays before they are
placed in storage, says the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Decay and deterioration result from
the storage of immature, soft, or
"thick-necked" onions and from i'm
perfect curing, bruising, or other in
juries caused by improper methods
of handling in harvesting and drying.
When in good condition for storage,
onions are well cured, hard, free from
loose skins or mechanical injuries
caused by rough or careless handling.
They should be stored in Slated onion
crates or in shallow Slated bins, and
should be cooled to a temperature of
80 to SO degrees as quickly as posi-
BILE after they are placed in storage.
1t is best that they be placed in
frost-proof, ventilated cellars, in we'll
insulated storage houses above ground,
or in cold-stOrage houses. In common
storage houses adequate means Of ven
tilation should be provided for the
quick cooling of the product and for
maintaining a uniform temperature
during the storing season.

Decorative Church Windows.

The art of glass decorating is not
a modern Bohemian accomplishment.
The Roman Cathedral of Prague con-
tanned, in 1876. two windows which
were decorated with Old and New
Testament scenes. Decorative win
dows soon became a favOrite form OF
church ornamentatiOn. Asnaes Sylvi-
us, who subsequently became Pope
Plus the Second and incidentally was
a very close student of contemporary
affairs of Bohemia, records that the
churches of the Czechs possessed
many "high and wide windows when
were brightly and artistically decor
ated, and such style Of decorating was
not confined to the churches in the
large cities and towns, but even the
distant hamlets prided themselves on
churches containing windows Orna-
mented in a similar fashion" The
curriculum of the division of techni-
cal arts of the University Of Prague
included courses in painting, wood
carving, and glass Ornamentation. NO
degree was ever conferred on student
unless he could exhibit sufficient apti-
tude as a "glass man" or qualify in
"glassery," a practical demonstration
of the high esteem in which this
branch of the arts was held.

SAW STEAMBOAT AS ENEMY
Sailors and Fishermen Alike Dreaded
Power of Which They Had No
Comprehension.

When FultOn's steamboat, the Cler-
mont. made her maiden trip on the
Hudson river in 1907, it frightened
more persons than it interested. Fish
ermen and small bOatmen to a man
believed it to be some horrible mon
ster, and headed for shore as fast as
they could go, and once on land ran
at top speed into woods and fields
to hide. Crews of larger sailing ships
were no better, and many a schooner
was deserted and left to drift down
stream as the snOrting, clanking,
smOke-tossing ClermOnt appeared.
Later it was made known along the
river what the thing was, and there
at once arose a great wave of hate
instigated by boatmen who saw their
business ruined, and by fishermen who
were sure the noise of the steamboat
would drive the fish to sea. Added to
them were hundreds of religious fa-
natics who declared the boat was the
work of the devil and "fying in the
face of God" So acute did this dis
like grow that attempt after attempt
was made by large sailing ships to
run the ClermOnt down. The state
legislature had to pass a special law
making it a criminal offense to at
tempt to injure the boat.

advice regarding possible markets
and timber prices.
Employ the services of some rell-
able man who has made a special
study of market prices of logs and
lumber. The saving gained thereby,

Teaching Calf to Drink, Showing Two
Fingers in Mouth.

healthy calf should be receiving about
six quarts a day. In case the supply
Of milk is irregular it is well to have
on hand a supply of skimmilk powder,
which can be mixed with water at the
rate of one pound to every nine pounds
of water. This can be fed the same
as the whole or skimmilk.
When the calf is started on calf
meal the amount to be added varies
with the size of the calf and the brand
Of meal. Directions included with the
meal should be followed very carefully.
In almost every case, the recommen-
dations are to mix the meal with either
hot or cold water in sufficient amounts
to make a thick, pasty Cruel This is
stirred carefully to remove all Jumps
and then diluted with boiling water.
The Cruel is usually added to the skim
milk and fed at approximately blood
temperature. 1t shghld never be fed
cooler than 95 degrees Fahrenheit and
should be given at the same tenpera-
ture every day. A thermometer IS
necessary; "guess work" has no place
in calf feeding. The amount Of skim
milk should be gradually decreased and
the amount of calf-meal Cruel in
creased. At the end of six weeks the
milk can be discontinued. At this
time the calf may be taught to eat tine
dry meal from a feed box If Small
quantities are rubbed on its nose 2fElsr
it has finished drinking. Feed the dry
meal regularly and in small quantities
so that none will be left in the feed
box to spoil. Give just what the caR
will readily eat, and develop tSe apDe-
tfte slowly. The Cruel can be cod
tinued until the calf is four m0IEiHs
old and perhaps somewhat longer If
desired.
1t is always advisable to get the
calves to take hay and grain st as
early an age as possible. S1hey will
usually begin when three or foa1r weeks
old if given the opportunity. The carly
development Of this habit helps greatly
when calves are taken Off the Gaaf-@eal
ration, for they ara already talking
liberal quantities Of hay and gHaS@ and
the change to this ration alone will be
gradual. The calves will not sIffRir
such a serious Setback @S they
might otherwise experience PoT tine
first six to- eight weeks tho hay fed
should be fine grade Of timothy or
a coarse alfalfa or mixed hay. Fine
alfalfa hay is so palatabBe that tho
Young calf will eat too much. Either
feed a coarse hay or limit the amount
of hay which the calf can get, After
this time alfalfa may be fed nberalaE

INCREASED YIELDS OF CORN
Clear Gain of 5000 Bushels Per Year
by Ohio Farmer Who Followed
Department Advice.

Records of one S00-acre farm in Ohio
show an annual increase of 5000 bush
ole of corn through the adoption of
new strains of corn and improved
methods developed and recommended
bv the United States Department Of
Agriculture. The farmer has been
following the advice Of the depart
,nent for 20 years, and has kept care
full records of his yield. For the last
ten years the increase averages more
than ten bushels an acre over previ-
GUS years. Beyond the extra cost OF
harvesting, the labor and expense is
no greater than previously, so the
1000 bushels is regarded as clear gain.

Change From Whole Milk Should

Amount of Meal to Be Given Depends

Youngsters to Take "Hay and

Many times a farmer selling milk
has a surplus which he runs through
the separator. This provides a limited
amount of skimmilk which can be fed
to calves to good advantage. In such
case the milk in the ration can be
gradually changed from whole milk to
skimmilk at the end of two or three
weeks by substituting an equal amount
of skimmilk for each portion of whole
milk removed, according to w. w.
