John Jones lives on a farm which he owns and cultivates.! He sells the farm to Joe Smith.' Does Smith become the owner of the growing crops on the land at the time of the sale? Yes. The general rule is that a deed to land passes the grow ing crops thereon to the grantee] of the deed in the absence of a reservation to the contrary. This 1 is true even though the crops j have already matured and are I merely standing unsevered ini the field at the time the deed ]is given. As between seller and i buyer of land, the law consid j ers the land and crops attached j to it as being united. The principle applies to cot j ton, corn, tobacco, grain, and all , kinds of vegetables, fruits, and I berries that have not been har- I vested and are still attached to | the soil. .... ! May there be an oral agree -1 ment that a sale of land does] , not include the annual crops at j tached to the land? Yes. Although a conveyance ] of the land or a contract to con-! : vey land must be in writing, the law of North Carolina permits 1 jan oral reservation of the an-| nual crops to the seller. But there cannot be an oral] agreement to except from the HIE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, WORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1960. provisions of a deed the fruit on trees and the berries or pro ducts of perennial plants. Pe rennial trees, bushes, shrubs, and vines pass with the title to the land and there cannot be an oral reservation to the seller of either them or their products. Perennial crops are those which are produced year after year from the same roots, trees or bushes without annual planting. Unsevered they are a part of the land to which they are attached, and contracts relating to them must be in writing. Sam Taylor by will gives a farm to Mary Barnes. There is an unharvested crop of com, tobacco, cotton and vegetables on the farm as of the time of death of Sam Taylor. Does Mary Barnes become the owner of the unharvested crop? No. In the absence of a clearly stated provision in the will to the contrary, the un gathered crop belongs to the executor or administrator of the estate of Sam Taylor as a part of the personal assets of the de cedent’s estate. There is a statute in North Carolina expressly so providing. In most of the other states there is no such statute, and in these states Mary Barnes would be come the owner of not only the farm but also the unharvested If Sam Taylor had not left a will and Mary Barnes had inherited the farm as an heir, the same principle would apply. The unharvested crop would be long to the executor or admini strator of the estate of Sam Taylor.

Teachings of Christ Jesus are I featured in the Bible selections: which include his admonition concerning the “corrupt tree (which) bringeth forth evil fruit” (Matt. 7:17). The subject of the Lesson-Sermon is “Are Sin, Di sease, and Death Real?” This correlative passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy will follow (343.14): “Jesus strips all disguise from error, when his teachings are fully understood. By parable and argument he explains the impossibility of good producing evil; and he also scientifically demonstrates this- great fact,! proving by what are wrongly called miracles, that sin, sick-! ness, and death are beliefs—il- ] lusive errors—which he could and did destroy.” FOR SALE!
