CONTRACTS USED IN RENTING FARMS ON" SHARES. 27 



covenanting that moneys due from him to said lessor for plowing, or damages, 

 or otherwise, shall be and hereby are declared and made a perpetual lien on any 

 and all crops, stock, and other personal property of lessee at any time kept, 

 had, or used on said premises, whether the same are exempt from execution or 

 not, such lien to attach from the commencement of the term. 



Said lessor reserves the right of himself, his employees, or assigns to enter 

 upon said premises at any time for the purpose of viewing the same or making 

 repairs or improvements thereon, the same not to interfere with the occupancy 

 of the lessee ; and reserves the right to himself or agent to enter upon said 

 premises for the purpose of plowing the stubble land, from which the crops 

 shall have been removed, in the fall preceding the termination of this lease. 



It is understood and agreed by both parties that the lessee's reward for all 

 farm improvements which he is required to make according to the terms of 

 this contract shall come in the increased yields and greater returns which 

 should result and which will be shared by lessee if he continues to operate said 

 farm. 



But in case this lease is terminated before lessee receives the benefit from 

 such improvements, he shall receive reasonable compensation for such im- 

 provements. For example, hauling and spreading rock phosphate and ground 

 limestone, seed clover and alfalfa, laying drainage, tile, stump pulling, etc. 



(Here state reward to be given lessee for unexhausted improvements.) 



That in consideration of this lease and the agreements herein contained 

 on the part of the lessee, said lessor covenants and agrees to keep and perform 

 the agreements herein set forth, hereby covenanting that any compensations 

 due from him to said lessee for improvement work, etc., shall be a lien on 

 his share of the personal property, and must be paid before the proceeds are 

 equally divided. 



And likewise, for failure to provide for and carry out any improvements 

 on said farm which are agreed to in this lease, said lessor shall be liable for 

 damages to said lessee to reimburse him for the loss which may result from 

 such default. 



At the end of the term of this lease, an accounting shall be had between 

 the respective parties hereto, and the produce, stock, etc., upon said farm 

 belonging to lessor and lessee shall be equally divided. Lessee shall divide 

 each kind of live stock into two equal lots, as near as may be, and lessor 

 shall have his choice of lots of each kind of live stock, which division shall 

 be final and binding upon both parties. And if a proper settlement can not 

 be made in this way, all parties hereto agree to have a public sale on the 

 premises for the purpose of dissolution. After all joint debts of lessor and 

 lessee and the expenses of having the sale are paid, the proceeds shall be 

 equally divided. 



But if one or both parties object to a sale and prefer a division of said 

 property, then each shall select an arbitrator. They jointly shall select a 

 third, and the three shall make such division of said property as to them 

 shall seem equitable, giving each party one-half of the same, after deducting 

 from each party's share such indemnities or adding such compensations as 

 may be justly charged or credited to him according to the terms of this con- 

 tract. 



Neither party shall have the right to bind the other by any contract out- 

 side the scope of this agreement, or by any purchases made within the scope 

 of this agreement, except with the consent of the other, unless hereinbefore 

 provided for.
