Sam Hamburg's Success Story

from Pinsk Is Now World'
Outstanding Jewish Farmer

Boy

Sam Hamburg is the most suc-
cessful Jewish farmer in the
world, according to the Jewish
Agricultural Society.
Hamburg came to the United-
States 23 years ago, bought a
small piece of land in California's
San Joaquin Valley, and through
hard work and skillful manage-
ment enlarged his estate to 8,000
acres which are valued at approx-
imately $2,000,000.
Born in Pinsk, Russia, he was
sent to school in Palestine. Dur-
ing World War I he served in
the Jewish Legion. He came to
America with the conviction that
Jews should turn to farming to
equalize their overcrowding in
other trades or professions.
"It was not easy," Hamburg
told a reporter, "and those who
want to get rich as quick as
possible don't go into farming.

Rabbi Korff Free

But his reward for the hard labor
is' that a farmer feels right at
home where he lives and knows
the land is his. He has built a
little piece of America, and it's
his America."
This year, Hamburg planted
4,200 acres with wheat which
brought more than $500,000; 1,500
acres with alfalfa with a result-
ing harvest of 12,000 tons; 500
acres with cotton, 200 with car-
rots, 300 with canteloupes, etc.
About 150 workers are steadily
employed on his farm, with their
number rising to more than 700
during the season. Hamburg him-
self, however, likes to lend a
hand whenever help is needed
and does-not consider himself too
good for manual labor.
An old Zionist and fighter for
the Jewish cause, he thinks that
in the United States there is a
big opportunity in farming for
Jews who are not afraid of hard
work.
