stad sued J. J. Phalen. This again
involved a crop on lands subject to
foreclosure. Onstad & Greer repre-
sented plaintiff mortgage, and again
the mortgage prevailed.
About this time the small banks
and other collectors began to sit
up and take notice; and year or
so ago Faaborg and Johnson at Medi-
cine Lake tried to take a crop away
from Butch" Anderson, but the lat
ter's neighbors threshed the crop for
him very early in the morning. And
by the time the banker and his col
lector were there, Butch" had taken
most of the crop away. Faaborg had
Anderson arrested, but the latter's
attorney, Howard Lewis, made such
bitter fight for his client in Judge
McKenzie's court at Medicine Lake,
that the matter was dropped.
Later on, an attempt was made to
take the crop away from Andy Han
sen and his father, out in the Dag
mar country, but the Hansens calmly
went to the granary and took the
crop,-and nothing was ever done
about it. Bill Quitmeyer, in the
same country, did not fare quite so
well, as his crop was taken by a ma
chine company from whom he had
purchased some farm implements.
Then followed the efforts of the small
town collectors, such as Mckee, Lard
S. Olsen, Oscar Collins and others,
with results as above set forth.
Howard Lewis, who represented
most of the loan companies in the
cases which have just been mention
ed, said, when interviewed by a press
representative:
Il have always been in favor of
giving the crop to the man who
planted it, who watched over it
through hail storm and drouth, and
during times when he wanted to
hover it "as hen gatne. ~ mr.

out to seize the crop. Hansen stood
pat and refused to deliver it. The
bank then sued Hansen and handed
the papers to Lawrence, who seized
the crop in the granary, and turned
it over to the bank.
The Northwestern National Life
Insurance Company sued the bank for
the crop; and Judge Paul has just
held that, as the crop was matured
at the time of re-entry made by
the Company, it was not a part of
the land; and, following an Iowa case,
the Judge declared that there is a
distinction between growing grain
and matured grain. He said:
1T then possesses the character
of personal chattels and is not to
be regarded as a party of the real
ty. The grain being mature, the
course of vegetation has ceased,
and the soil is no longer necessary
for its existence. The connection
has changed. The grain no longer
between the ground and the grain
demands nurture from the soil. The
ground performs no other office
than affording a resting place for
the grain. 1t has the same rela-
ton to the grain that the ware
house has to the threshed grain, or
the field has to the stacks of grain
thereon. 1t will not be denied that
when the grain is cut it ceases to
be part of the realty. The act of
cutting it, it is true, appears to
sever the straw from the land. But
it is demanded by the condition of
the grain. 1t is no longer growing.
1t Is no longer living blades which
require nourishment from the soil
for its existence ard development.
1t is changed in its nature from
growing blades of barley or oats to
grain mature and ready for the
reaper. Now the mature grain is
not regarded by the law like grow
ing blades, as a part of the realty.
but as grain in a condition of SEN
aration from the soil. There is no
valid reason why the act of cut
ting should change the property in
the grain"
The producers news. [volume] (Plentywood, Mont.) 1918-1937, 1927-04-22

The court then held definitely that:
"The ownership of the tenants share
of a matured crop does not pass to
the purchaser at foreclosure sale. 1t
follows that the defendants are en-
title to judgment"
While the decision works hard
ship, in this particular case, upon
Chris Hansen and cropper of the
land, and gives the Scobey bank the
Hansen crop, in addition to all his
other goods and chattels, which the
bank took away from him, 1t is, new
ertheless, of far-reaching Importance.
Possibly the first crop that was TAX
en- from the renter in this country, IS
in the case of National Life Insurance
Company against Charley Holland,
an old-timer then renting land near
McCabe,, and now farming on the
Fort Peck Indian Reservation. Judge
Conner decided that the National Life
people were entitled to all Of Holt
and's uncut crop, in spite of the Wig
orous opposition by w. 7. Stephens,
who was the real owner of the crop,
and Paul Babcock, the attorney for
Stephens and Holland.
Possibly the next case which de-
veloped was that of the same com
pany against Stanton K. Williams,
who was farming near Redstone.
John Schlag was the renter, and Vol
lum & Paul were the attorneys Tor
Williams. The loan company got the
crop, but it is understood, gave credit
on the mortgage for the amount
thereof, and later on sold the land
for the amount involved, less the
proceeds of the crop.
About the third case which came
up in this series was that of Bankers
Farm Mortgage Company against
Paul ]. Paulson, involving lands IN
the extreme northeastern part OF the
county. Arthur C. Erickson, present
county attorney, was attorney 1oi
Paulson, and, in spite of his utmost
efforts, the plaintiff took the cro[
from the land which Paulson mac
rented to Albert Stageberg.
About the same time, George On

re-entry was made by the Life Insur-
ance COmpany's agent, there being
forty-five acres of the crop already
cut and one hundred acres still stand
ing. Probably because he was in
censed at the treatment he was re-
ceiving from the Scobey bank, and
believing that he would receive bet
ter treatment from the Insurance
Company, Hansen gave up his share
of the crop to the Company, and was
hired by it to harvest the remaining
one hundred acres, to thresh it, and
to store it. He did so as an employee
and agent of the insurance company
and put the grain from one hundred
acres into the Company's granary,
locking it with a paddock belonging
to the latter, and refusing to deliver
this to the Bank.
Upon the trial which was had some
months ago at Scobey, a letter was
introduced from Hansen, to the eff
feet that he expected the insurance
company to protect him as to his
share of the crop; and it developed
that the Company had intended to fix
up the place, put him in charge Of
1t, sell it to him, upon payments, and
give him credit for the proceeds of
MS share of the crop.
However, the Scobey bank sent Al

Autos and Auto Trucks.
Perhaps no district has seen such
rapid improvement in road making as
has Sheridan county; ten years ago
scarcely a mile of good road could be
found in the county, perhaps a few
towns arranged to grade a mile or two
of roadway leading into town, and
the rest of the country roads consist
ed, for the most part of merely the
prairie trails.
With the arrival of autos came thu
demand for better roads, and county
officials, set to work to improve Thu
road system; during the past five
years we have wonderful progress il
this line, each town now has service
able car roads tapping practically
every farming community, this i'm
provement helps greatly in the move
ment of grain, and now practicaIl
every farmer handles his grain t

Practical Road Making at Little Cost
We believe there are few counte
that have accomplished as mud
practical road making, and at as ltH
cost as this county, it is noticeab.
that the roads are extending frOI
the towns into the farming districts
and constitute good sensible and SCI

Highways from town to town.

"Blind Alleys" is assured of more
than its fair share of pulchritude. In
addition, those who've already seen
the picture advise US that "Blind AL
leys" possesses more than the usual
amount of drama, action, thrills, ex-
citement, melodrama and fine acting.
Sounds Like big order to fill but
listen to the story. Starting in Cuba
and reaching New York soon after the
first reel, "Blind Alleys" follows
Meighan and his mate through all the
experiences they encounter when ar
irving in New York. On their first
night in America, Tom is shown the
inside of hospital due to an auto
accident and Greta is kidnapped by a
