ground by way of the stal)Ie door. This ooiiduit discharges into the maiiuiti 

 house. The quadrant-ahapcd figures at the head of tlie stalls, are hingod 

 iron mangers, which may be turned into the feeding passages for conven- 

 ience in feeding, and the man- 

 gers may be unhinged and 

 removed from the building 

 when cleansed. 



The cu-cular figure in the 

 line of the stall partitions, ia 

 the base of a sheet-u'on hay 

 tiTbe, wliich is supported at 

 the height of the manger, and 

 extends to the ujjper surface 

 of the loit floor, where it ia 

 supplied with hay. These 

 tubes have an opening to each 

 stall, so that one tube sup- 

 plies two hoi-ses, the tube be 

 ing covered at the top, and 

 close, except the feeding open- 

 ings, and the lattice bottom to 

 them protects the hay from air 

 and dust, and is the most per- 

 fect and durable hay-feeding 

 arrangement yet discovered. 



The object of the lattice bot- 

 tom to the hay tubes, is to 

 preserve the hay seed which 

 sheds. It falls into a drawer for the purpose, and the seed thus saved is of 

 excellent quality, and the quantity thus collected well remunerates for the 

 cost of the arrangement. The cupola is octangular, and has four openings, 

 with stationary blinds, and four with glazed sash, which thoroughly light the 

 iiay-loft and feeding passage. 



The building is perfectly lighted and ventilated, and exhibits a pretty 

 slevation from any point of view.
