A group of machines, especially a large group of near- identical machines running load- balancing software, dedicated to a single task. Historically the term server farm, used especially for a group of web servers, seems to have been coined by analogy with earlier disk farm in the early 1990s; generalization began with render farm for a group of machines dedicated to rendering computer animations ( this term appears to have been popularized by publicity about the pioneering “ Linux render farm” used to produce the movie Titanic). By 2001 other combinations such as “ compile farm” and “ compute farm” were increasingly common, and arguably borderline techspeak. More jargon uses seem likely to arise ( and be absorbed into techspeak over time) as new uses are discovered for networked machine clusters. Compare link farm. Farm ( Matt. 22: 5). Every Hebrew had a certain portion of land assigned to him as a possession ( Num. 26: 33- 56). In Egypt the lands all belonged to the king, and the husbandmen were obliged to give him a fifth part of the produce; so in Palestine Jehovah was the sole possessor of the soil, and the people held it by direct tenure from him. By the enactment of Moses, the Hebrews paid a tithe of the produce to Jehovah, which was assigned to the priesthood. Military service when required was also to be rendered by every Hebrew at his own expense. The occuptaion of a husbandman was held in high honour ( 1 Sam. 11: 5- 7; 1 Kings 19: 19; 2 Chr. 26: 10). ( See LAND LAWS �( n/ a); { TITHE}.) FARM, estates. A portion or tract of land, some of which is cultivated. 2 Binn. 238.

Co. Litt. 208, 209, n. N; but in the English law, and particularly in a description in a declaration in ejectment, it denotes a leasehold interest for years in any real property, and means anything which is held by a person who stands in the relation of tenant to a landlord. 6 T.
