MODELS OF FARM BUILDINGS IN THE 

 GREAT EXHIBITION. 

 The Timet of Wednesday last, has tbe following observations : 

 — V A . ,DO,, tf noise* 11 an eous contributions, the models of farm. 

 boiMi"*s are worthv of particular attention. The want of 

 •Jjfc»mo>a'io« in this la-jt retpct is perhaps the greatest 

 eril of our present agricultural system G » where j i like, 

 yoa rare«y see substantial and wed-arrttnged homesteads, and, 

 generally speaking, there l* a cou»ple'e absence of a decent 

 wwision for the farmer's stock. We are *iad to find in the 

 Exhibition, contributions which are likely to be of service in 



ter — if not hy suvgestin? new and va uab*e id- as, at 

 iirecting atteo ion to a point which is every day be- 

 fflreimprttnt." Amonif th^sp moflels is one froin Mr. 

 ioim Baiter, of 'he Sussex Agricultural Express Lewes, and Orikl 

 lasds F .rsn, Riognser, which, from its inexpensive ch tracer 

 ia erection, and esc llent adaptaion to the ec nomi&ing of 

 lab ur in farmyard management, has attracted the esp-r ial 

 atteaiion of those who aim at practical UM-fulneti, rather 

 UiftnsMvingof labour bv theap^l cation of expensive machinery. 

 rsnufo! from 50 to 800 acres, *ill not find steam generally 

 available, and what is wanted is a go< d system <it far m-b jild- 

 kiz& for rbe-e establishments ; and for these Mr. Baxter's models 

 •jam eminently calculated. W* are a lad to 6nd that foil details 

 •f his models, with diacrams. have been added to " Baxter's 

 Library of Practical Agriculture," which popu'ar work is now 

 re-issued and in tbe hand* of the London Publi-hers. Me srg.

 aannet forbear calling to the rnoLice the various models of
