We must decline hereafter to reply to queries by
mall, lt was not our Inteutlon to open a free legal
bureau, as many seem to think, for the beuellt of
private individuals, although subscribers. All we
can consistently do Is to give opinions on cases of a
general character, such as are likely to occur to clt-
liens lu any part of the State at anytime, and tlie
answers to which will be generally useful. These
questions Bhould be stated aa clearly and brleny aa
possible.
If a farm is deeded to a husband anil
wife jointly, ran it be takon for debts of
the husband, other than those made for
the ln'iittU of the farm? M.
Franklin Co.
No.
Can a perton holding a isommtsalon, and
acting as poHtiiuuiter, legally hold aiHiiii-
inlM-ion and perform the duties of Notary
Public? I.. II. O.
Glezen.
No.
A man buys a farm and renta it to a
man to run as a dairy farm, furnishing
half and getting half. Who fays for Timothy feed aud clover Beed to sow on fields,
to be used as pasture for the cows?
A SUIiSCl'lllKR.
ICach party pays half.
A man dying in 1850, his widow soils oil
the property and pays tho debts and finishes paying for the land. Can she make
a warranty deed to one of her children, of
her part of tho land?
Oraoge Oo.       -    - A Si BST-ITiBEU.
Yes.
What is the law in regard to line fences?
An estate has been settled but the partition fences have not been placed. If I
farm my side and do not pastuto it, can
I lie compelled to put up half of the fence?
La Porto Co. X.
Yes.
Does the law of llhode Island require a
person to own ?l:M worth of real estate in
order to become a voter, as stated in a
book in my possesion? K. II.
Randolph Co.
The law has been changed and does not
require a property qualification.
A and 1! join land. A has a mill dam
the water cut around a dim on H'u land.
The County Commissioners built a levee
between A and 15, leaving a great pond of
water on B's land.
1. Had the Commissioners a right to
build a levee to the damage of B's land?
2. Had the Commissioners a right to
remove culvert and make a solid embankment, this being a public highway?
.'. Has I! tbe right to run a tile in said
pond and take tho water out? This pond
extends into a mill dam. U. T.
1. Yes.—B may however secure dain-
uges.
2. Yes.
:,.   No. 	
A and B own ndj-.init g farms. Thodi-
vidiiig fence elands just whoro it was
built :>0 years fgo. A is dii-satisfied and
wants anew survey. Must B pay half
for survey iiif>?
•_. If the fence built by both comes on
ollber side of the lino can that one hold
the fence?
.!. If thero should bo two fences built
can one compel tho other to give half of a
driveway between? 1". It. B.
Napoloon.
1. Yes. Whoro survoy is made according to the Statute.
2. No. Tho fence belongs to both,
equally.
3. Each man must build his fence on
his own ground, but he may build it just
as ckse to the line as he can got it.
Neither is compelled to give ground for a
drivo way.
Raising Tobacco.
Editors Indiana Fanner:
It is time small farmers were doing
something. What can wo raise with tho
mest profit. It is generally known that
wheat, corn and oats do not pay as a rule.
I think small farmers could raise tobacco
with proper culture and care, with good
profit. Before the late war the small
farmers did grow some to sell, before the
revenue was put on. It has been removed
so the small farmer can now sell it in the
market, in small or large amounts. I do
not use the weed, but it will bo in use as
long as time lasts, so I think it will be
well for some one to write en the subject
in regard to cultivation, etc.
Clay Co. W. II. Tiffbv.
1. Can a married man sell bis farm, without the consent and signature of his wife?
2. Could deed be made in such a way as
to make it unnecessary for wife's signature? 15. N. T.
1. No.
2. Only by taking deed in the name of
some third person.
Can a husband, after thedeathof his wife
and her parents, hold his wife's full share
of her father's property, or any part of it?
The husband being childless.
Miami Co. Frank Query.
If the wife's parents died first, then at
the wife's death her portion would go to
her husband. If the wife died first and
after her death her father died, then the
husband takes nothing.
Will the bill passed by the Senate requiring the cleaning of ditches and drains
between Aug. 1st and Nov. 1st of each
year include creeks and all streams excepting rivers? If not it ought to. Drift
ought to be kept out of all water courses.
Grant. J. B. C.
No, only open ditches are to be cleared
out, under this bill, but you are right in
saying that natural drainways Bhould be
kept clear also.
On March 11, lsso, a law was passed in
this State, prohibiting the drawing of over
2,000 pounds on a narrow tired wagon, or
2,500 on a broad tired wagon, whilo the
gravel roads were in thawing or soft condition. Now, suppose a superintendent
accuses a person of hauling too heavy a
load. Tho accused goes to magistrates office, examines affidavit and finds that tbe
accuser only guessed at his load. Now,
can he not demand that tho accuser's statement be proven? W\ C.
Huntington Co.
The accuser must prove the charge by
sworn testimony; and if he falls to do so,
the defendant should be discharged.
An Independent Order.
Editors Indiana Farmer:
I see the Indianapolis Sentinel charges
the Farmers' Alliance with being an organization in the interest of the Republican
party. Now this is entirely erroneous, the
Alliance was not organiz-*! in the interest
of any party. But, if anything, the Democratic party is more in full accord with
our platform than another. Our representatives wero pledged to support the
claims of tho farmers, aDd . if they fail to
do so, we want to know it. The people
with a unanimous voice demanded a sub-
stanial reduction in official fees and salaries:
and what have our legislators done? As
for the Representative from Boone county,
his answer is on file in our County Alliance, in company with the answer of our
Congressman. We aro organiz-xl for business. A. M. S.

Like a Good Dinner to a Hungry Man.
Editors Indiana Farmer:
My subscription expires next week.
Please be prompt in sending it right along
as I do not want to miss a number. Of
the ten or a dozen papors that I take, the
Farmer is always read first. I would
just as soon think about doing without
ono of my moals each day as to do without
the Fab.mkr. Wheat looks a little brown
but is not hurt yet. Corn is 50 cents per
bushel; lings $.1 and about all gone; seems
s though farmers want everything else
but hogs now, but I think now is the
time to stock up. I am going to raise every
pig I possibly can this spring.
Vigo Co. K. C.
—Thank you for tho good opinion of the
Farmer, so frankly expressed. You are
undoubtedly correct in believing that hogs
are goiDg to pay better next fall.—Eds.
