    J. C. Gold et al., Appellants, v. Grant S. Savage et al., Respondents.
      
    
    Appeal from a judgment of the superior court for Okanogan county, Neal, J., entered November 13, 1923, upon sustaining a demurrer to the complaint, dismissing an action 'to foreclose laborers’ liens.
    Affirmed.
    
      Peter McPherson, for appellants.
    
      Corbin & Easton, for respondents.
    
      
       Reported in 231 Pac. 942.

This action is to foreclose certain lien claims filed by appellants against the 1923 crop of defendant Savage, consisting of boxed apples, for labor performed in harvesting, housing, assisting in harvesting and housing, and grading the apple crop, which labor consisted of picking, sorting, grading, storing, and housing the apple crop.

Appellants vigorously contend and ably argue that the statute, §1188, Rem. Comp. Stat., [P. C. § 9666], generally known and referred to as the farm labor lien law, authorizes such a lien.

We have recently decided to the contrary in DeGooyer v. Northwest Trust & State Bank, 130 Wash. 652, 228 Pac. 835.

The provisions of this lien statute and its effect were there thoroughly considered and we are content therewith. There is no distinctive fact in this case differentiating it from that, except that in that the work done was pruning and spraying the trees, picking up brush, and cultivating and irrigating the ground upon which the trees grew, and in this ease the labor was on the fruit crop itself.

For the reasons stated in the case cited, the judgment of the lower court is affirmed.

Main, C. J., Mackintosh, Fullerton, and Mitchell, JJ., concur.
