E IN PUHL LAWSUIT A atory of farming, Interwoven with romance that failed to bloaaom In the fulleat, waa told yeaterday and to day In circuit court, before Judge Jamea T. Brand of Coo county, In the ault of Fred Puhl against LoulM Howard, now Louise Pech, for col lection of money allegedly advanced by Puhl on note and for farm equip ment, and for labor. Henry Dalke, a brother of the de fendant, testified: "I told aome people Fred waa Juat piddling around the place, and he asked me about It. He told me: 'Re member, you're getting paid, and I'm not." The witness aald Puhl did not hard work during the period he was em ployed on the ranch, except to "broad cast some grain, cut the winter's wood and help clear a half acre." "I got up at 4:48 a. m.. and worked before breakfast, and Fred got up at hair past seven,", the witness further stated. Another time, Dalke teatlfled, he talked with Puhl about hi proposed marriage to his sister. "I told him not every msn was lucky enough to' marry a woman with so much property, and he replied, Yes, when we are married, half this place will be mine.' I told him the children had their share." Dalke said he owed his sister $100, and offered her a washing machine In payment of the debt, and Puhl re marked, "We don't need a washing machine." Dalke then asked, "Who la running the place?" and the slater anawered, "1 am." Dalke teatlfled that he did not con slder a tractor or a foreman waa need ed In the operation of the farm, lo cated on the Bear creek bottoms In the Midway district. Charles dowdy, now employod by Mrs. Howard, testified to work done with farm machinery on other places nearby, for which Mrs. Howard paid the wages. Puhl, himself, called to the stand, testified, "If we got married I was not to be paid, and Lf we didn't I was to be." The defense attempted to ahow contradiction with testimony given in other hearings on the ossi. Puhl, well, known valley resident, contends he'acted ss foreman, and ths traotor and other machinery he purchased was needed In ths running of tne farm. Ho held ths acreage showed a betterment In crop produc tion under his management. Two ona Albert and Herbert Puhl were called as witnesses on ths use of the machinery and work performed over a period of months. Roland Hubbard, Implement dealer of this city, and Arnold Bohnert. Central Point district farmer, were called to testify to the need and present value of tractora, binders, harrows, plows and cultivators, and the wage paid for their use. The defense contends a "family relationship existed." and that by reason thereof, the defendant la not obligated to pay: ths plaintiff that a verbal contract existed. Each con tends the other cancelled the mar riage promise. Much of the testimony dealt witn farm methods.
