Experiments of far.reaching importance
to the American wheat grower are being
carried out In the laboratories OF Cambridge
University, England. Prof. Biffen, the az.
ricutural expert, has evolved wheat that
is immune to rust. When it lie taken into
consideration that the average loss from rust
to the wheat crops of the world is estimated
at $4,000, 0O0,000 In years when the rust pest
is serious, the significance Of the discovery
isobvious. BY patient crossing and selection
in breeding, wheat has been grown thai
is immune to rust. This immune wheat is
available now only 10 experimental guam
titles, but Prof. Blffen is confident that a
discovery has been made that will prove Of
enormous value to the agriculture oil the
world. 1t makes new debt that the farmer
owes to science,

Berg A. Bergendahl, manager Of
the Meyers lumber yard in this city,
died at the Northwestern hospital
Saturday afternoon at three o'clock
after a short illness of typhoid fever.
He was taken i'll less than a week
before his death and was taken to
the hospital. He was very hopeful
of his recovery and told his wife
as he left that he would return Sun
day. His body, cold in death, was
returned to the house Sunday.
From the very start it was seen
that he was in precarious condi-
tion, and altho he had a very robust
constitution, he soon succumbed to
the ravages Of the horrible disease.
The funeral was held from the res
idence Monday afternoon at two o.
clock and the body given over to
the charge of the Masons, of which
order he was a member. Ten of the
members of the Kenmare lodge, of
which he was also a member, arrived

noon. A large number of the Minot

Robert S. Noah, from Ward county

execution, but the step taken by the

men, inasmuch as it relates only to

supreme court in effect declared that
county officers had certain duties
inherent in their office under the con
stitution which could not be delegat-
ed by the legislature to another otlc-

doubt in the mind of the peniteH-
tiary warden as to whether he has
the right to hang anyone under the
present statute which is compare
lively recent and under which one
man, John Rooney, had already paid
the penalty at the state institution.
Governor Burke has sent the tran
script Of the Noah trial to the SUI

and asked an opinion on. the valid
ity OF the penitentiary hanging law
