Excerpt from Eighteenth Annual Report of the National Farm School: November, 1915Longing for And in none is this secret longing so strong as farm strong among the Jews, falsely regarded as fanatic devo m jew' tees of Mammon. Scrutinize the rosters of all the agricultural departments of all the universities in the United States, and witness the large. Number of Jewish names.Here is the proof of our assertion: many of these Jewish young men, studying agriculture at the universities, are so em gaged because their city - jaded, Mammon-sickened fathers look forward to the day when their sons' ability to manage a country estate will make it possible for them to gratify that secret longing that is in their hearts, others because the father, having realized the futility of all that spells success in the city, would dedicate the son to that vocation whose usefulness is supreme and still others because, early in their scholastic life, they themselves have felt the call of soul to the soil.It is the call of the soil that is summoning young men to the agricultural schools. And to none is that call stronger, and none are more eager to respond than those Jewish lads whose early youth has been spent in poverty, whose early environment has been the tenement street. Happy the lad whose parents' means enable him to gratify his laudable ambition!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
