A landlord orally leases a
farm TO tenant for a year. Sub
Sequently the tenant enters into
written agreement with a
mercantile establishment for
seed, fertilizer, and other sup
plies for the cultivating and har-
vcSting of the crop to be grown
on the farm. The mercantile
establishment properly registers
the agreement. The crops rails
cd on the farm are not suffici-
lcnt in value to pay both the
landlord and the mercantile
establishment. Who will be paid
first from the proceeds of the
crops?
The landlord. A landlord in
North Carolina has statutory
lien on all crops raised on the
leased land until rent and all
IadvancementS made by him to-
wards making and saving the
crops are paid. His lien is given
priority over all other liens on
the crops raised on the leased
land.
There are no registration laws
TO be complied with by the land
lord. The landlords lien is ac-
Iquired by the landloard auto
matically by virtue of his status
as a landlord.

Y-Teens from the United

Anniversary Celebration and

of those who knew him as a
perpetual monument to his

over two years ago, that he
had an incurable form of can

Philip Sporn Plant, in the
heart of the rapidly expand
ing Ohio River Valley, has
BEEN selected as the site for
the second of two 100000 kilo
watt electric power general
ing units-l arg e S t in the
world, it was announced to-
day.
Sporn Plant at Graham
Station, West Virginia, with
present generating capacity
of 100000 kilowatts, is joint
ly owned and operated by APP
palachian Electric Power Co.
and Ohio Power Co. Both are
subsidiaries in the American
Gas and Electric Co. System.
Like its AGE system sis
ter unit being built by Indi-
ana and Michigan Electric
Co. on the Wabash River in
Indiana, the new Sporn unit
will be 70 per cent larger
than any power-producing
unit operating today. Cost
of the Sporn plant project
has been estimated at $58
million.
In commenting on the Sc
lection of the Sporn Plant for
the location of the second
450,000-kw unit, AGE Presi~
dent Philip Sporn said, Our
decision was based on three
important factors: the need
for still greater generating
facilities in the dynamic Ohio
Valley, the fact that the
plant is situated near the geo.
graphical and load centers of
the AGE System, and the
plants proximity to abundant
low-cost coal reserves"
Mr.. Sporn went on to de-
scribe the revolutionary new
units as new plateaus in
power generation technolo-
gy." He stated that con-
/ struction would be under
! taken at Sporn plant early in
1857 and that completion is
scheduled for late 1869.

100000 tons of coal yearly.
