The manure from the cows and horses is thrown together into one yard' 
the utility of which by practical men is well understood. 
Drainage from the boxes and covered yards is not required ; but from 
the stables, cow-house, and open yard it is carried into tanks and on to the 
land by gravitation. 
The rain-water is carried to a tank near the engine, and, in the absence of 
spring-water, it could be utilised for the stock in the yards, &c. 
Ventilation throughout is attained by inlets from the walls near the eaves 
(Musgrave's patent being specified), and outlets by louvres in the roof. 
One-half of the yards are shown covered, and the others are the ordinary 
shed and open yards ; but the whole could be covered, or, vice versa, contracted 
or enlarged, without in any way infringing on the principle of the design or 
destroying " Utility."
