   The executor or administrator is entitled to the possession of all the
   real and personal estate of the decedent, and to receive the rents and
   profits of the real estate, except the realty and improvements thereon
   properly belonging to the homestead, and such personal property as is
   reserved by law to the widow and children of the decedent, or either
   of them until the estate is settled or delivered over by order of the
   district court to the heirs or devisees; and he must keep in good
   tenantable repair all houses, buildings, and fixtures thereon, which
   are under his control. The heirs or devisees may themselves, or

   the same, against anyone except the executor or administrator.
