considered a trespasser if he attempts to go on the
property for the purpose of removing personal prop-
erty after the expiration of his lease.
When the lease has been made for a given time and
the tenant continues to occupy the premises after the
expiration of the lease without any further agreement,
and with the knowledge and consent of the landlord,
it is understood that he becomes a tenant at will and
that the relation may be terminated by either party
at any time by giving reasonable notice. If the
property is a dwelling house and the rent is paid

the property is used for agricultural purposes and
the tenant had planted crops and performed the
usual labor necessary to the production of the crops of
the coming year, the lease could not be terminated
before the expiration of the year upon which he had
entered.
