One of the things that attracted great
attention was model for barn, designed
and exhibited by f.. \. Barnard, secretary
of agriculture for the Province of Quebec.
The design is original, and combines light

strength. 1t is a complete barn, made to
shelter all the farm animals including the
pigs and hens, having apartments for each
kind His barn deserves a half-column
description, hut it would hardly be under

building may be- improved, and for giving
Vermont the benefit Of the improvements
suggested by his model.
