=. A. Wardwell. G. G. Thompson
Ak1WELL . THOMPSON
THlNGvILLA CHURCH
CASE FOR PLAINTIFFS.

Judge Templeton has handed down
decision in the Thingvilla Icelandic
Lutheran case. As will be remembered,
in former decision he decided in favor
of the defendants. who while being the
majority of the congregation were ac-
cording to his honor's decision religious
seceuer's. But this was made on the
ground that q certain section of the
church constitution which declared, that
in case of q disagreement in the con-
gregation then that part Of the congrega-
ton which held to the tenes of the
church should hold the property, had
been UNANIMOUSLY repealed by the con-
gregatlon. It was discovered afterwards
that this was an error and that as mat
ter of fact such provision had not been
repealed, and hence new hearing was
asked for and granted, and the former
declsion reversed:
In the former decision the Judge de-
cided that the defendants had as a mat
ter Of fact departed from the orthodox
church doctrines, but decided in their
favor only because the local church or
gan'zation constitution permitted the
majority to rule. But on the rehearing
by esta bllshing the fact that the above
mention section of the constitution
was still in force it proved that the ma
jority did not have power to rule when
it came to q matter Of church doctrine.
He further decides that as the proper
ty was decided by the original owner to
the trustees Of the church and their suc-
cessors, that such deed implied or ex-
pressed trust by which the property
should be used by the part of the con-
gregation that remained faithful to the
faith and tenets harmonizine with doc
.trines Of the members at the time when
the deed was given unless the constitu-
tion 0f the church showed something to
the contrary. s@.

Big FORTUNE WELL HANDLED
Millions Left by the Late Russell Sage
Are Being Expended for the Wei.
fare Of Humanity.

While the late Russell Sage was in
the flesh he was one Of the most pru-
dent. shrewd and persistent money
grubbers in Gotham. The astute finan-
cier never plunged nor risked any
money in wildcat schemes. He was
''sure-shot" operator in Wall street,
and when he died he left in the hands
Of his lone widow fortune OF some
thing like S75.000.00o. Since becom-
ing possessed Of this enormous for
tune she has worked as persistently
and assiduously In scattering the
money as her husband did in gather
ing 1t. The scriptures tell US that
the miser is the man that heaps up
riches and cannot tell who shall gath
er them" Russell Sage knew better,
and the good lady upon whose shoul-
ders was imposed the burden Of this
enormous sum Of money has worked
hard in tightening the burden. Her
philanthropies have been productive
Of as much wisdom as marked her hus-
bands operations In the market. She
Is reported to be failing in health, and
her task is only begun. Should she
be taken from the world thousands
will regret her departure, and 1t is
very earnestly to be hoped that fur
ther care Of the property will fall into
good hands.

RAISE LARGEST WHEAT CROP
North Platte Station Secured 81
Bushels Per Acre In 1908 =
Approved Methods Used.

Probably the largest crop OF
wheat ever raised in western Nebras-
ka was harvested at the North
Platte substation In 1908. The yield
was 81 bushels per acre. This was
grown upon land which had been
summer fallowed during the preced.
Ing summer. and careful tillage given
In order to store up as much mois-
ture as possible according to the most
approved methods Of dry farming. At
the time OF seeding this wheat In the
autumn of 1907, the soil was thor
oughly saturated with water to a
depth OF six feet. and contained 16h
per cent. Of moisture by actual test.
During the winter. the moisture con-
tent decreased until It stood at IL
per cent. in April. 1908. This de-
crease continued until harvest, not.
withstanding the fact that IL inches
OF moisture fell during that time. 1t
Is probable that there was some run.
of and also small amount OF
evaporation. but the loss from these
factors was small. The greater part
OF this water was used In producing
this crop. SO 1t will be seen that In
raising this 81 bushels of wheat not
only was the IL inches Of moisture
which fell during the growing season
all used. but In addition to this, mois-
ture which would amount Of six or
seven inches Of precipitation which
had been previously worked into the
soil. After heavy grain crop like
this. with Its exhausting drain upon
the moisture content Of the soil.
corn or some other cultivated crop
should be planted. because the sur.
face cultivation given such a crop
tends to increase and preserve the
moisture content during at least q
part Of the year.
These results. coming as they do
from accurate sources, seem to sub
stantiate the claims made by the
most enthusiastic advocates Of dry
farming in the semi-arid belt. The
North Platte substation Is so located
that 1t receives fully as much mois-
ture as any locality In the recog-
nized dry farming belt. where the
normal rainfall amounts to only 12
to IA inches instead Of the almost 10
inches at North Platte. It is reason.
able to suppose that this same meth
cd Of procedure would bring CORE
spending results, the only difference
being that summer tillage would be
necessary every alternate year In.
stead Of every third or fourth year.
The fact is established beyond doubt
that this dry farming method will
and does store up moisture in the
soil during seasons Of excessive rain.
fall. or during seasons Of no cropping
to be used the following season when
the natural supply may be deficient.
