1. Where materials are furnished for the improvement of real estate, upon the employment of a contractor, and it appears that there was one contract between the contractor and the owner for the improvement of the real estate, which consisted of two separate and distinct pieces of property, the improvements to be made at the same time upon both pieces of property and covered by the one contract, upon a compliance with the Civil Code (1910), §§ 3352, 3353, a lien would attach upon both pieces of property; and if the lien was duly filed and recorded as prescribed by § 3353, supra, within three months from the time the last item was furnished on the contract, it would be immaterial as to whether the last item referred to material furnished for the one piece of property or the other.
