Per Curiam.

The premises claimed as a homestead are not within the limits of any incorporated town. The tract had never been .surveyed into blocks and lots or dedicated to village uses. It has been and is now used for agricultural purposes in connection with defendant’s contiguous farm, and is therefore a •country homestead within the meaning of the constitution, notwithstanding the land upon which the defendant’s residence is situated juts into the village.
