POPULAR YOUNG MINISTER
DIES AT MANDAN
Rev. David J. Lane, pastor of the
Methodist Episcopal t-hurcn uf Man
dan, died Saturday, death resulting
from poisoning following an operation
last Friday morning for appenlidtis.
Overtaxing his strength and refus
ing to take a rest from his ministerial
duties, made his condition serious pre
vious to the operation. During the
month of January Rev. Mr. Laite as
sisted in conducting a revival meeeting
in which noted evangelists took part.
After their departure Ite continued to
hold nightly meetings and conducted
revivals in adjacent towns. The con
stant worry preyed upon his weak con
dition and he was on the verge of a
collapse when his doctors advised him
of his condition and recommended
immediate attention to his case.
A CONTINUATION OF THE OAKES REPUBLICAN
Rev. Mr. Lane vat out 28 yean of
age. He was born in Denbigh, On
tario, Canada, and was brought to
Dakota territory by his parents when
three years of age. since then he has
lived in the Dakota*. Se leaves a wife
and three children, two boys and one
girl. His popularity was out of the
ordinary and he had gained a state
wide reputation in his work, which
would no doubt in a few years made
him popular throughout the country.
He was a son of Mr. «md Mrs. Sam
uel Lane of El'end&le, and Mrs. Lane
is a daughter of Hon. George Rose of
the same place. The remains were
brought to Ellendale and the funeral
held Tuesday.
LOSE THEIR NIECE
[Communicated]
Barney Gallagher and wife returned
Saturday afternoon from Willow.
Lake, S. D., where they were called
last Monday by phone. Their niece,
Mrs. Delia Theis, nee De'ia Galla
gher, was not expected to live. They
arrived at her bedside at 11 p. m. and
she was stilt conscious and recognized
and talked to them. She passed away
Wednesday morning at 9:20. They
stayed for the funeral, held Saturday,
and visited with Mr. Gallagne*^
There is a great deal of dead seed
corn this spring. It is likely that in
your corn there are many dead ears,
perhaps fifty per cent. At the N-I
we have tested about five thousand
ears, and in some lots we have found
the germination as low as thirty-five'
per cent, while others have gone as
high as ninety-five. The surprising
feature of these tests was that in
many cases the best appearing com,
was dead. Many ears that would have
been passed as perfect in germination
have been entirely dead. If you do
not have time to test your corn, it will:
pay you to hire it done unless you are
sure your corn is either all dead or
all live.
The problem of testing corn for
farmers has presented itself at the
agricultural department of the N-I.
We have found that we can not test'
more corn free, simply because we do,
not have the help, nowever much we'
wish to test the corn. But there are
a few very competent students who,
have had considerable experience in'
this work and who will gladly do this
work for a small sum. Please under-'
stand this is not a money making
proposition for the «chool, but is
merely giving a few honest young'
men employment. If you wish your
corn tested, bring it In and we will!
test it for you in this way, and assure!
you an accurate test. But whether!
you bring it in be sure and test your1
corn. It will pay better than anything
you can do at this time of year.
