HERBERT R. O'CONOR, GOVERNOR. 1079

sub-title "Miscellaneous", exempting, under certain condi-
tions, certain non-resident employees who are temporarily
or intermittently employed in this State by non-resident
employers from the provisions of the Workmen's Compensa-
tion law.

SECTION 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Mary-
land, That Sub-section (3) of Section 80 of Article 101 of the
Annotated Code of Maryland (1939 Edition), title "Work-
men's Compensation", sub-title "Miscellaneous", be and the
same is hereby repealed and re-enacted, with amendments, to
read as follows:

80. (3) "Employee" means a person who is engaged in
an extra-hazardous employment in the service of an employer,
carrying on or conducting1 the game upon the premises or at
a plant, or in the course of his employment away from the plant
of his employer, and shall not include farm laborers. "Farm
laborers" as used in this Article, shall mean any employees
who, at the time of the accident, are engaged in rendering
any agricultural service, including the threshing or harvesting
of crops, or who, at the time of the accident, are engaged in
service incidental to and in connection with agricultural pur-
suits or developments, whether the employer be the farmer
or other person undertaking or contracting with the farmer
to perform any such agricultural service, pursuit or develop-
ment. This Article shall not apply to cutters of cord wood
or fire wood, farm laborers, domestic servants, nor to country
blacksmiths, wheelwrights or similar rural employments, un-
less these employments elect to come under this Article as
provided in Section 44, nor in any case where the accident
occurred before this Act takes effect, nor to casual employees
or any employees who are employed wholly without the State.
But for all purposes of this Article, casual, occasional or inci-
dental employments outside of this State by the Maryland em-
ployer of an employee or employees regularly employed by
said employer within this State shall toe construed to be em-
ployment within this State; provided, however, if an employee
or the dependents of an employee shall receive compensation
or damages under the laws of any other State, nothing herein
contained shall be construed so as to permit a total com-
pensation for the same injury greater than is provided for in
this Article.

An employee and his employer who are not residents of this
State and whose contract of hire is entered into in another
State shall be exempted from the provisions of this Article
while such employee is temporarily or intermittently within
this State doing1 work for such non-resident employer, if such
employer has furnished workmen's compensation insurance
