INJURY WHILE LOADING GRAIN EMPLOYMENT WITHOUT USUAL COURSE OF BUSINESS OF EMPLOYER.-A purchaser and shipper of grain is not liable to pay compensation under the Workmen's Compensation Act prior to the amendment of 1913, for injuries received by a person casually employed by him to complete the loading of some grain on cars, which the sellers had been unable to load at the time of its delivery at the railroad station owing to a shortage of cars, it being shown that it was the custom for sellers to do the loading and that it was no part of the usual course of the purchaser's business to load the grain.
