a spacious wood house. Through this we reach the door to kettle 

 room, (the eye must follow the plan as well as expose,) and the pota- 

 to cellar, with a little slide window. Ascending (steps are marked 

 on chart,) to the farther end from that on which we entered, we find 

 ourselves on a rude veranda, formed by the projecting eaves of the 

 poultry house and granary; along this, doors open upon hens, eggs, 

 and grain; while on the other side, below you by three or four feet, 

 are the pigs again. The cutting room claims attention next. It sure- 

 ly is not far to carry fodder to horses aT^d oxen on either side, and it is 

 lighted by good sized window over top of sty, which, by the way, is 

 a leanto attached to barn. Upon the barn floor is a trap-door, and 

 above it a slight tackle; the trap-door opens upon a mammoth cel- 

 lar for roots, and the tackle brings them to the mouths of hearty 

 beeves. But on, Hy gang-way to extreme end of barn, we pass stalls 

 on left, and bay to the right, under edge of which is an opening to 

 the rack in the open cellar below, to throw fodder to the young stock. 

 Passing down a step or two at end of gang-way and through large 

 shed, we come upon another gang-way, (built to walk on,) on one 



Barn, out Buildings, and part of Dairy from the west. — Fig. 2. 



side of which is a rack under an open shed, on the other a bay. 

 Passing up a step or two at the end, is a door to shearing room; above 

 it a lathed and plastered wool room, (and I should have remarked, that 

 over the kettle room is a grand large workshop.) Out at the front 

 of this temple of fleeces, and we are on the ground again, and with a 

 glance at some well built sheds, whose outline is on the f)lan, for 

 tools, carts and etcetera. Look at my picture of them, (fig. 2.) barn 

 and all, from where you stand.
