It appears from the evidence that the defendant is a farmer fifty-nine years of age, living in the town of Eau Galle, Dunn county, and owns 280 acres of land on which he lived, a part of which is the eighty acres in controversy here. His family consisted of his wife, four sons, and three daughters-, including the deceased, William Henry Weinzirl. The deceased William Henry had worked at home from childhood.
On August 20, 1915, the defendant leased the eighty acres in dispute to one William Rodewald for three years, who remained in possession until he removed the crop1 in the fall of 1918. Of the eighty-acre tract twenty-five acres were under cultivation in 1918, thirty-five acres in pasture, and there were twenty acres of cut land containing saw timber, basswood, maple, elm, and a few oak. There was not and never had been a house upon the land or building of any kind.
In 1916 the defendant rented all of his land, except that leased to Rodewald, to his sons, George, William, and John, and thereafter they operated the farm, the father furnishing the necessary stock, machinery, and equipment. This arrangement continued up to the death of William Henry on March 24, 1919.
In 1917 William Henry registered and was first given deferred classification and afterwards placed in Class 1. The defendant then became very active in his attempts to secure a reclassification, visited members of the draft board in Dunn and Pepin counties, in which interviews he made representations to the effect that William owned the eighty *423acres in question, that he was desirous of giving him a deed to it, and stated to other parties that the eighty acres in question belonged to William. William was inducted into service and was discharged and returned home in August, 1918.
After the expiration of the Rodewald lease William bought dynamite to the amount of $120.50, which was used in blasting stumps upon the land in dispute. In January,
1919, William cut and hauled from the eighty acres in question 12,000 feet of saw logs, for which the defendant makes no claim. In February, 1919, he was married to the plaintiff Mary Catherine, who was teaching school in the neighborhood. After their marriage William Henry and his wife lived with the defendant. Mary Catherine testified that the defendant told her that he had agreed to let William have the farm for $5,000, that he had allowed Will $2,500 for his work, and that was to be deducted from the’ $5,000. Mike Sand, father of the wife of William, testified that the defendant told him that he had bargained to sell Will the eighty for $5,000 and had given him $2,500 for his labor off from the purchase price.
Om February 3, 1919, the defendant made an entry in his account book with William Henry Weinzirl as follows:
Farm .$5,000 00
Car bought. 461 95
Shock absorbers. 384 65
Money loaned. 31 50
Six cows. 350 00
One coming 2 year old. 35 00
Living expense. 91 00
Seven hogs. 181 32
Cash . 500 00
One set of harness. 20 00
One horse June. 150 00
$7,205 42
Inheritance . 2,500 00
$4,705 42
*424The defendant testified that if he had Will charged up with six cows in February, 1919, he owned them, and that if he had him charged with seven cows he owned them and they were on the place. Upon the death of William Henry the defendant took possession of all the personal property.
After Sand was appointed administrator he made a demand upon the defendant for a performance of the alleged contract and the possession of the personal property, and the defendant refused to convey and denied that there was a contract. We shall not state the facts relating to the personal property, as we deem it not material upon the issue presented here.
The question presented here is, Are the findings of the court against the great weight and clear preponderance of the evidence? For if the facts are as found by the trial court, no' right to specific performance on behalf of the plaintiffs, or any of them, exists. We have set out the main facts relied upon by the plaintiffs in this action to sustain their contention. If it be conceded for sake of argument that the trial court was in error (we do not so find) in holding that such possession as William Henry Weinzirl had was under and by virtue of the lease made between William Henry and his brothers with the father, Henry Weinzirl, nevertheless the record is barren of any evidence which shows that the minds of the parties ever met upon the terms of a contract. He may have gone into possession under the terms of the lease, himself and brothers with the father simply taking over, the property when the Rodewald lease expired. There is nothing to show that he went into possession under the alleged contract. There is no evidence in the record which shows, or tends to show, the assent of William Henry to' the claimed contract. The statements and admissions of the defendant indicate a willingness on the part of the defendant, especially during the period of , the draft, to convey these premises to his son, William Henry. He never did convey them, nor. is there any evidence of any *425negotiations leading up to or amounting to a contract between father and son. That the father was predisposed to malee some such disposition of his property as is indicated by the statement in his account book seems to be established, but we find no evidence of record that he ever contracted to do so. There may have been some tacit understanding between them, but there is nothing that raises that understanding to the dignity of a contract.
It is urged here that the court erred in dismissing the complaint as to the personal property. That there was a clear misjoinder of actions in this case seems apparent. There was an action on behalf of the widow and the heir to compel specific performance. A part of the cause of action was the right of the administrator to- recover the value of the personal property of the deceased. Under sec. 2602, Stats., all persons having an interest in the subject of the action and in obtaining the relief demanded may be joined as,plaintiffs, but it is required by sec. 2647 that, while the plaintiff may bring in the same complaint several causes of action, “the causes«of action so united must affect all the parties to the action and not require different places of trial, and must be stated separately.” This does not authorize the joining of two separate independent causes of action between different parties, one of which is an action in equity to compel specific performance of a contract, and the other an action for conversion for the recovery of damages.

By the Court. — Judgment affirmed.
