A PORTION OF THE PERGOLA ENCLOSING THE QUADRANGLE 
the house, one in front of the terrace and 
another in front of the quadrangle. The ver¬ 
anda faces upon a broad, brick walk in front 
of the house where there are many pots and 
tubs filled with rubber-plants, 
palms and blooming hydran¬ 
geas throughout the summer 
and groupings of hardy box 
and eunonymus during the 
winter months. About five 
feet outside the outer edge of 
the veranda is a wood frame¬ 
work in the panels of which 
sash are placed in the winter.

apartment is obtained which 
answers for a conservatory and 
is large enough for a com¬

mass of the barn, owes much the spring-house of “the red rose 
of its architectural charm to its irregular lines. 
The different sections of the building are not 
rectilinear, and the wings are set with rela¬ 
tion to each other slightly off of the right
