oF Drrector’s Report or THE 
An important change has been made in the basement of the 
cattle barn by doubling the window space and by substituting a 
wooden wall for the stone masonry in the south end. With the 
increased light and dryness thus secured this basement appears 
to furnish comfortable and healthful quarters for live stock. 
In view of the need for much more milk to be used in the new 
dairy building, it will be necessary to enlarge the stock capacity 
of the cattle barn. This can only be done by building a wing, 
one story probably, and most conveniently on the east side, that 
will aéecommodate twenty or thirty animals. I recommend that 
$1,500 be secured for that purpose. I also recommend that $1,000 
be secured for the maintenance of general repairs to the Station 
buildings. The general funds appropriated for the use of the 
Station should be wholly apphed to the maintenance of its various 
departments and must be if it is conducted along the varied lines 
that are now undertaken.
