limited by the bounds of no Nation or

increased cultivation of clover and the con-

wealth by utilizing soil that might otherwise
remain barren or comparatively unproduc-

are 90 feet broad by 100 long; the smith shop
is 50xlU0 feet also; the stock room is 2jx120
feet and the wagon works are 54x3O0 feet,
two stories. The office building Is 4OX40 feet,

finished in fresco and hard wood. with cut
