Brother Aelred Reid
RICHARDTON - Mass of Chris-
tian Burial for Brother Aelred Reid
was held at 10:30 a.m., Monday,
Feb. 24, 2014, in the Assumption
Abbey Church. Burial took place in
the Abbey cemetery.
A vigil service for Aelred was
held at 7 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 23, in
the Abbey Church.
Brother Aelred (Joseph) Reid,
OSB, 59, died at St. John's Abbey,
Collegeville, Minn., on Feb. 17,
2014, from an apparent heart attack.
He was attending St. John's Univer-
sity, working on a master of arts de-
gree in pastoral ministry and living
at St. John's Abbey.
Aelred was born in Boston,
Mass., on March 20, 1954, to Joseph
Francis Reid Jr. and Joan Adele (Vil-
liard) Reid, the first of four children.
He received his elementary and high
school education in local public
schools. During this time, he har-
bored an unspoken inclination to-
ward religious life. After high
school, he spent several months trav-
eling through Europe planning his
religious life. In 1973, he entered the
Society of African Missions as a col-
lege seminarian with a trajectory to-
ward mission work in Liberia, West
Africa. While in the seminary,
Aelred was exposed to the Trappist
monks at St. Joseph Abbey, Spencer,
Mass. This experience awakened in
him a desire for monastic life. At the
end of the fall semester in his senior
year of college, he chose to leave his
religious community, the Society of
African Missions, as he felt a call to
a more monastic way of life.
He completed college in 1978 and
being encouraged to experience life
more broadly, began to work for
many years in human services with
the mentally challenged and the psy-
chologically disabled.
In 1986, he moved to southern
Florida, where he continued to work
in human services, as well as in sales
and marketing. He also was intro-
duced to the restaurant business and
continued that line of work when he
moved to New York in 1991.
Despite doing fairly well he was
not happy. Aelred worked on a
deeper relationship with God. The
Dominicansat St. Vincent Ferrer Pri-
ory ifii",ew York City were most
helpful, tO him. He also reconnected,
with his youthful interest in the reli-
gious life. In the summer of 2000,
he came to the Assumption Abbey in
Richardton. After completing candi-
dacy and novitiate, he made his
monastic profession March 21,2002.
While in formation, Aelred
worked at various capacities at the
Abbey, from the laundry, the farm, as
sacristan and various janitorial du-
ties. He also developed an interest in
icons and in mounting them. He be-
came very good at this since he had
a keen sense of beauty. On Jan. 15,
2007, he began to work at Home On
The Range, Sentinel Butte, as chap-
lain. He resigned on April 23, 2009,
and began to work at Sacred Heart
Church in Glendive, Mont., and its
missions as a pastoral worker and di-
rector of religious education. To
help him in his DRE work, Aelred
began part-time studies toward a
master of arts in pastoral ministry at
St. John's University, Collegeville,
Minn., during the summer of 2011.
In the fall of 2012, he became a full-
time student at St. John's.
We at Assumption Abbey express
our gratitude to the monks of St.
John's Abbey for their warm hospi-
tality to Aelred and for their kindness
on the occasion of his death.
Aelred is survived by his mother,
Joan Reid; two brothers, Ronald
(Barbara) and Michael (Shari) Reid;
and one sister, Diane (Samuel) Wag-
ner. He is preceded in death by his
father, Joseph F. Reid.

Crop insurance deadline approaching
The USDA's Risk Management
Agency (RMA) reminds producers
in Montana, North Dakota, South
Dakota, and Wyoming that the
spring sales closing date is March
15.
The spring sales closing and can-
cellation date applies to spring
planted crops, and is also the dead-
line for producers to notify their
agent if they have planted winter
wheat in a county with only spring
wheat coverage.
There are also important changes
for organic producers this year. The
five percent surcharge for all acreage
insured under organic farming prac-
tices has been removed and a new
contract price option will be avail-
able to organic producers who grow
eligible crops under guaranteed con-
tracts. An organic price election is
now available for oats, bringing the
total number of crops with organic
price elections to sixteen.
Changes to organic transitional
yields (t-yields) will be phased in so
they will be more reflective of actual
organic farming experience. More
information on risk management
tools available for organic farmers
can be found on the RMA Organic
Crops website at:
www.rma.usda.gov/news/currentis-
sues/organics/.
Doug Hagel, Billings Regional
Office director, reminds producers to
contact their crop insurance agent for
changes and insurance availability
specific to their operation. A list of
crop insurance agents is available at
all USDA Service Centers or on the
RMA website at:
www.rma.usda.gov/tools/agents/.
Farm Rescue accepting applications for planting
JAMESTOWN - Farm Rescue, a
nonprofit organization that provides
planting and harvesting assistance
free of charge to farm families who
have experienced a major illness, in-
jury or natural disaster, is now ac-
cepting planting applications from
farmers in North Dakota, South
Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and eastern
Montana.
Farm Rescue assisted 50 farm
families in 2013 and plans to assist a
similar number of families as avail-
able funding and volunteer staffing
allows.
"Now is the time for farmers to
apply for planting assistance. Prior-
ity consideration will be given to ap-
plications received by April lst," said
Bill Gross, founder and president.
"Friends and neighbors may also
anonymously refer a family that is in
need of assistance since some fami-
lies are hesitant to ask for assistance
themselves."
Farm Rescue is introducing a
Sponsor-A-Volunteer program,
which will provide an avenue for po-
tential donors to help further the non-
profit organization's mission of
assisting farm families who have ex-
perienced unexpected crises.
N.D. orders ilealth certific:ate stateme on swine
BISMARCK - North Dakota's
state veterinarian has ordered that all
swine coming into North Dakota "be
accompanied by a health certificate
declaring that they have not been ex-
posed to porcine epidemic diarrhea
virus (PEDv).
Dr. Susan Keller said the certifi-
cate also must declare the animals do
not originate from a premises known
to be affected by PEDv.
'"This state response is the result
of the identification of more PEDv
cases in gurrounding states and in
Canada," Keller said Tuesday. "The
mortality rate in young swine is up to
80 to 100 percent, and production
losses are significant in older swine
although the mortality rates are
lower."
Keller said the health certificates
must be signed by the owner of the
animals as well as the issuing veteri-
narian.
New edition of noxious weed guide available
BISMARCK - Agriculture Com-
missioner Doug Goehring has an-
nounced that a new edition of "A.
Guide to North Dakota Noxious and
Troublesome Weeds" is now avail-
able from the North Dakota Depart-
ment of Agriculture (NDDA) and the'
North Dakota State University Ex-
tension Service.
"Correct identification of problem
weeds is the first step to controlling
them," Goehring said. "This new,
pocket-sized field guide has detailed
information and color photos to help,
landowners and land managers de--
termine the invasive plants on their:
property and the measures needed to)
stop their spread."
Written by Rodney G. Lym, pro--
fessor of plant sciences at NDSU, the
67-page, spiral bound booklet con-
tains descriptions and photographs of
31 noxious and invasive weeds, in-
cluding long-established species such
as leafy spurge, Canada thistle and
hoary cress, as well as relative new-
comers like halogeton, orange hawk-
weed and black henbane.
Symbols listed with each entry de-
note whether the plant is a county or
state-listed noxious weed, the meth-
ods for controlling the weed and
whether the weed is poisonous.
"A Guide of North Dakota Nox-
ious and Troublesome Weeds" is
available free of charge from the
North Dakota Department of Agri-
culture at (800) 242-7535 or
