THE BARN PLAIN AND SIMPLE,
To assist this latter class Country Cen
tleman makes these remarks concerning
the accompanying designs:
We give two engravings, one represent
ing barn where some attention is given
to the outside appearance, and the other
one of tho plainest character. The in
terror arrangements of both are nearly
alike, except that the handsome one, Fig
3, has basement which is partly occu-
pied with cattle stalls and toolroom,
while Fig has them on the common
floor. Fig may be covered with un-
planed boards and vertical battens, while
Fig 2 has vertical boards without the
battens. The additional cost Of Fig. 2, as
compared with Fig. /, will not vary
greatly. from the following:
Additional lumber, nails and work for
Dattens.. ..........,...,.......,'.. SdO
Exterior yentilators and gable............. 30
Windows and Observation-Disclosures, 55
Previous planting Of shade trees..,..,.... 10
TOTAL. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, Sl-J
If the barn is 40 by GO feet it will COST
together with the basement, about 5000
or 81 ,000 covered with rough boards, or
81 200 or 81 800 if they they are planed
and painted, and with more finish. A
heavy coat of crude petroleum, put on
the unplanel surface with coarse
brusl by a common active laborer, and
requiring not more than two barrels of
the oil, will cost $S.
Readers will decide whether they will
have such barn as in Fig. 2 for about
