PLAN No. I. 



This plan is for a lot 30 by 150 feet and 

 on a scale of 25 feet to the inch. The 

 house, as a main, is 20 by 32 feet, and 

 placed 2 feet from the boundary line on 

 one side and 8 feet from the line on the 

 other side. The position of the rooms are 

 shown, also the chimney, which could have 

 three separate flues for fires from three 

 rooms. The hall and stairs are shown, 

 and the 16 feet long building in rear is 

 supposed to be used as a wood shed and 

 washing room. The well, marked with an 

 o, is on the side where driving may come, 

 while the cistern, marked o, is where 

 water can be taken into three rooms. 



The pathway to the door is shown on 

 the plan, and all the Iront aside from this, 

 as well as the wide space from the front to 

 rear of wood shed, should be kept in 

 grass. 



Hedges of the various Evergreens, such 

 as the Hemlock, Norway Spruce, Arbor 

 Vit£3, etc., may be planted, if desired, on 

 each of the lines of boundary and in front, 

 except where the entrance way is, but they 

 should be kept yearly and properly pruned. 

 When the trees are planted they should be 

 mulched with litter, tan bark, etc., say two 

 feet in diameter from the body. 



The following numbers, with the names of trees, etc., all 

 attached, correspond with their places for growth on the map :
