that the water rights to a homestead

TO satisfy a debt. The law protecting
homesteads was designed for the bene-
fit of mans family in preference to
his creditors. To sell the water right
to such property would be depriving
the family of the use of the land. The
water right is included in the home

provide that homestead to the value
of $4,000 is exempt from executions.
The Spain tract of two and a half

He can also reinvest in more property.

The Selling Value and the Freight
Rate.-In holding that proposed in
crease in the freight rates on potatoes
averaging about two cents a hundred
pounds between Oklahoma points and
the Rocky mountain territory was jus
titled, the interstate commerce COM
mission has laid down a significant
general principle: If, when viewed in
the light of those considerations which
enter into proper rate making, a par
ticular rate is fair and just for the SER
vice performed. the price at which the
shipper markets his product cannot be
accepted as the controlling factor in
fixing the rate"

George sued David Williams, who had
given his note for stock. Williams
proved that the note was given with
the distinct understanding that it was
to be paid from the profits of his deal
ings with the new organization. The
profits failed to 60 this, and Williams
contended that therefore the note be-
came void. The jury sustained this
view. Hundreds of similar notes are
outstanding.
The Weed Law.-The supreme court
of Washington has upheld the weed
