IMPLANTED CROPS
MAY BE M0RTGAGED
Repeal of Lien Law Has
Little Effect.
COMMON LAW RIGHTS
Repeal Of Lien Law VIII Have No Ef-
feet On MOrtgnging Crops Such
Is General Opinion.


What effect is the repeal of the lien
law to have om the farmers who are
accustomed 20 giving liens i'm order
to secure supplies for the year. is a
question that has been and is being
asked on every hand. And, what can
the farmer do, since he cannot give a
lien, in order to buy his supplies?
These matters have engrossed the at
tention of farmers, merchants and
lawyers. all of whom are desirous of
obeying the law, but of providing
means for the relief of the farmer.
Many inquiries have come to The
Advertiser as to the effect of the re-
peal and as to the validity of mort
gaging crop before It Is growing,
Basing answers on law and the opinion
of the brst lawyers, the replies have
been that the only effect is a change
OF name. 1t was once a lien, now it
is mortgage; and, the crop may be
mortgaged before it is even planted.
The lien law, that has been in vogue
III this state for some years, was mere
ly creature of statute; the mortgage
is based on he cIInr on lnH' thev are
entirely .nieprrd,"t OF euch ether.
and the repeal OF the lien Law without
taking away the right 10 nolicage
has no effect. The practice, under
the lien law We're mnrely Il St;ttiory
right; the giving of a mortgage under
the common law is an inherent right
Giving mortgage on an implanted
crop is somewhat similar to mortgage
ing mare and her increase, although
the increase be not mentioned in the
agreement. This doctrine has been
upheld by the supreme court, as indi-
Gated in the following:
Verbal promise to give a mortgage
on certain chattles to secure the pay
ment of a debt, impresses such prop
erty with an equitable lien, Such
equitable mortgae" may be created by
parole agreement on crops to be raised
and attaches as soon as they are in
esse, but such an agreement to execute
an agricultural lien is not an equitable
mortgage"
The only difference now is that the
mortgage which is being taken on
crops is better security, and easier
OF enforcement. So far as cutting off
this basis of credit giving a lien) the
repeal of the law is dead letter. Mort
cages are being given every day. and
the farmers are securing supplies
practically in the same old way.
AS matter of fact, the custom i'm
Laurens county, even under the lien
law, was about the same that it will
hereafter be; namely. that of foreclos-
ing under the mortgage clause. Mer-
chants took lien-mortgage, and if
compelled to foreclosc. did not carry
the matter through the courts. under
the lien but effected settlement under
the mortgage. 7',e difference now is
that the mo. ,sd,o must be given only
IN the year that the crop is to be plant
ed; for example, no mortgages can
be given next December on the 1911
crop. as none We're given last Decem-
ber on this years crop

Dr. Browns Lecture Good.

The lecture by DR., Milton w. Brown
on Monday evening at the city grad
ed echool auditorium was decidedly
the best number, so far, in the school
lyceum course. The subject. The
Supertluous Man" was dealt with in
n most entertaining and instructive
way, the speaker proving himself
thoroughly capable of handling it in
both scholarly and pleasing manner.
The audience was rather small, which
was noted by a few pleasantries on
the part of DR.. Brown.
