2. THE BEST CONSTRUCTIOK OF A FARM-HOUSE AND 

 OFFICES. 



This is a most material point for the consideration both 

 of the farmer and of the landlord, and the rent to be paid, 

 ought certainly in some measure to depend on the good- 

 ness of the accommodations with which the occupier is 

 furnished. With convenient offices, it is evident that 

 the grain produced on the farm, can be better preserved, 

 and more advantageously separated from the straw, and 

 prepared for market. The live stock also on the farm, 

 can be more easily and regularly fed, and being thus 

 kept in better order, must consequently be fitter for their 

 work, or for the market. The propriety also of having 

 suitable accommodations for the farmer, his family and 

 his servants, need not be dwelt upon. The expence of 

 erecting such buildings must be considerable when first 

 laid out, but no liberal landlord will grudge it for the 

 comfort and advantage of an industrious tenant, who pays

 the access of vermin ; and in laying the foundation of barns, 

 that material object, (the exclusion of vermin), ought always 

 to be kept in view.
