Award of benefits under Article 18 of the Labor Law. The nature of the work and services of claimant in the year 1940 are here involved.

Claimant’s work was not performed “ on a farm ” and he was not excluded from the act. The award was proper. Decision unanimously affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Commissioner.
