crops alto pass by the deed of a farm, un
lean they are expressly reserved, and
- wben it is DOt intended to convey those,
it should be bo stated in the deed itself ;
6mtre oral agreement to that effect
w0aidnot be valid in law, (19 Pick, 315)
Another mode is to stipulate that posses
sion is cot to be givenuntil some future
dav, in which case the crops or manure
Hjy be removed before that time.
As to the buildings on the farm, though
general! mentioned in tbedeed. it id
sot aDbolutely necessary they should be.
A deed ot latd ordinarily carries all the
buildings on it belonging to the grantor,
vhelber mentioned or not ; uid this rule
includes the lumber and -timber, of any
old building which has been taken down
or blown down, and been packed away for
future use on the farm, (41 N S, 505, 30
Peon, St 185.)
Bat if tbere be any buildings on the
farm built by some -third person, with
the farmer's leave, the deed would not
convey those, since such buildings are
personal property and do not belong to
the laDd owner to convey. Tne real own
er thereof might move them off, although
the purchaser of the farm supposed be
as buying and paying for all me build
ups on the farm. u only remedy iu
such a case would be against the party
selling the premises. As part ot. the
buildiDga conveyed, of course the window
blinds are included, even if they be at
the time taken off and carriea to a paint
shop to be painted. It would be other
wine if they had been newly purchased
.and brought into the house but not yet
attached to it. (40 Vt 233.) Lightning
rods also go with the nouse, if a farmer
is foolish enough to have any on his
house. A furnace in the cellar, brick or
portable, (4, E D Smith, 275, (39 Conn,
362,) is considered a part ot the house,
but an ordinary stove with a loose pipe
ruDciDg into the chimney is not. (24
Weed 191.) while a range set in brick
work is, (7 Mass 42 ) Mantel pieces so
attached to the chimney as. not to be
moved without marriog the plastering go
with the house, but if merely resting on
brackets, they may be taken away by
tbe former owner without legal liability,
(102 Mass 517.) Tbe pumps, sinks, etc,
twieotd to tbe building are a part of it
in law. (99 Mas?, 457.) and so are tbe
wnttr pipes connected therewith" bring
log water lro'm a distant spring, (97 Mabo
133.) If tbe farmer has iron kettles set
in brick work near bis barn for cooking
lood lor his stock, or other similar uses,
the deed of his farm covers them also,
(19 Tick 314,) as likewise a bell attach
ed to bis baru to call his men to dinner,
(lu2 Mass 514 ) If he indulges in orna
tacLial statues, vases etc, resting on the
grouud merely by their own' weight, and
'oils his estate without reservation, these
things go with tbe land, (12 N "X 170.)
Rights in the Road. If a farm deed is
bourjded by, or upon a road, it usually
(xiendg to, -the middle of the roadway.
Ibe farmer owes the soil of half the road
and may use the grass,stonesgravels,and
or anything else of value to him, either
o tbe laua or below tbe surface, subject
only to the superior rights of the public
to travel over the road, and that of the
highway surveyor to ubo such material
lor the repair of tbe road ; and these ma
terials he may cart away and use else
bbre on the road. No other man has a
"gbt to feed his cattle there, or cut tbe
gras& or trees, much less deposit his wood
or old carts, wagons, or other things
thereon. (8 Met 976, 8 Allen 473, 1 P.

Sam was a good, honest, industrious
farmer, of ordinary intelligence ; but he
had one fault which was bv no manna

ininK now mucn inconvenience and hard
labor he. might cause the females of his
family, by patting off the doing of some
small job until all his own plans were
carried out. It was harvest time, and
the corn-plowing was behind. To neg
lect either, wooid be a losing business.
Accordingly, be hired hands to do the
harvesting, and he and his hired boy,
George, drove the plows. But one thing
he forgot, that there would be far more
dinner to prepare that day than usual,
and that his wife had told bim the day
before that tbe wood was almost out
She knew that when men are engaged in

ful of good "wood for the stove. She,
therefore, said nothing on that busy
morning, and depended on pieces of old
rails, bark from the fence, &c Bat she
found it a hard aBd vexatious task. How
ever, the dinner was good, and her coun
tenance pleasant; and; innocent Sam ap
peared to enjoy both very much. But
how to get sapper for all those men
without any wood, was to her tbe per
plexing problem. Sam fiuiahed his din
ner before-the otaora, and seated hi ruB-lf
on the piazza near the dining room door.
Said Mrs Findlay to one of the harvesters:
"Oid you know that man on a gray horse,
who passed up tbe road by the wheat
field ?" They did not think any one had
passed. "O yes, there was; I was up at
the end of tbe lane getting bark to cook
dinner, and he stared at me like a simple
ton, and said, 'Ain't yon Sam Findlay's
wife ?' I told him no; Sim Findlay ia a
gentleman. He would not have his wife
out this way gathering bark and sticks to
cook dinner." -
In a short time, George also, had fin
ished his dinner and gone out, and Sam's
voice was heard, even within, speaking
very Boftly : "George, I reckon you had
better go down to the field and bring up
the crears: we can't finish that field this
evening no bow; we will have to have
wood soon, and it won't take any longer
now than at another time." The har
vesters imagined tbey saw a mischievous
twinkle about Mrs Findlay's eye, but she
talked so loud and fast about another
matter, that tbey could not swear that
Bbe beard Sam's voice at all. The Blue
Lick people wondered; but they never
did know whether a gray horse passed
that day, or whether, like the wise wo
man of Tekoab," Mrs Findlay prepared
a parable for the occasion. But one
thing was certain the wood came.

A Mutual Surpiisa-
A Danbury grocery firm have taken tbe
agency for a hammock- One of the ar
ticles they have hung at the front, in tbe
shade of their porch. Tbey hung it there
as an advertisement, but numerous people
have got into it to see how it worked. It
hung so low that they could easily sit in
it, and undoubtedly the motion was
agreeable and comforting. Bat the gro
cers didn't fancy this performance, espe
cially as the hammock sitters were not
hammock-buvers. So they removed the
loop at one end from tbe book, and fas
tened it by a bit of twine instead. Shortly
after a mau came in for two quarts of mo
lasses (treacle.) It was put up in his pail,
and a paper tied over the top as he, bad
forgotten to bring a cover. When he
passed out be saw tbe hammock. His
curiosity was aroused at once. The gro
cers were busy inside so he thought he
would investigate on hia own account.
With that keen intuition peculiar to a
New England man, be saw at one glance
that it was something to get into. He
knew it was nothing to wear and was
equally sure it could not be arranged for
cooking. He sat down in it. Then be
swung forward, and lifted bis feet up.
The twine fastening gave way. It was a
dreadful affair. He bad tbe pail of treacle
