Any person who shall make advances in provisions, supplies and other articles for agricultural purposes shall have a lien in preference to all other liens, existing or otherwise, upon such provisions, supplies and other articles, until they shall be consumed in the use. In case anyone to whom such provisions, supplies and other articles are so advanced shall endeavor to dispose of them for other purposes than that for which they were advanced or in case any person shall endeavor to make such provisions, supplies and other articles liable for the debts of the person to whom they were advanced, then the person advancing such provisions, supplies or other articles shall have the same remedies and means for enforcing his lien as are herein provided in case of advances for agricultural supplies.
