¶1After marriage the parties lived with plaintiff’s parents who owned & large farm and conducted a considerable farming enterprise, with, we think, an understanding that when the parties had shown capability in the farming enterprise the parents would retire from the business and thereafter reside at Montague where they owned a dwelling. Several months after the marriage defendant, having visited occasionally her parents who lived 40 miles distant, went to the home of her parents where she remained from June until September. Shortly after her return a child was born and in March following she left-plaintiff, went again to the home of her parents where she has since resided, having the child and living apart from plaintiff. More than two years after such leaving the bill was filed seeking divorce for desertion.
¶2Defendant answered. Plaintiff-had decree. The mother was awarded the custody of the child. Defendant has appealed complaining of the divorce and of the award of alimony. At the farm home as against plaintiff’s father no ill treatment is claimed. There was some slight unpleasantness between defendant and her mother-in-law caused by words and conduct of the latter which did not justify defendant’s desertion of plaintiff. And to justify it no failure or misconduct on the part of plaintiff is shown. Streicher v. Streicher, 202 Mich. 588, is authority for sustaining the divorce.
¶3The decree makes a nominal provision in lieu of *518dower, requires the plaintiff to pay defendant’s taxable costs, including an attorney fee of $60, ancFdirects the payment by plaintiff for the child of $3 per week untilj the further order of the court.
¶4At the time of the hearing plaintiff had no property. He was employed at farm labor, his wage being $50 per month. Defendant is a school teacher earning at the time of the hearing $105 per month. The child was then with defendant’s parents, prosperous farmers having a good home, where the keeping charge was $3 per week. As the parties were then circumstanced the decree is equitable. In the event of a material change in conditions the decree may be' modified upon petition to the circuit court.
¶5Affirmed without costs.
