eI Village House. and f'Model Farm Yard
 The interesting part of the farm house competition is that it was not proposed by city folks: it came as an actual demand by farmers. Practical farmers stated their needs and it re- nained for the architects of. the state to solve the problem of a $3,500 ten room model farm house. The state art commission offered prizes It brought together a jury composed of a practical farmer, Senator L.. E. Potter, of Springfield; a specialist in the department of domestic science and home management of the Uni- ve9sity of Minnesota, Mrs. Margaret Blair; the executive head of the Az Minnesota, Dean A. F. Woods; and an architect of Minneapolis, MT. George Chapman.
 Thirty excellent and practical farm house designs resulted from this com petition The commission has dis tributed plans; it has circulated ex- hibitions of Model Farm Home'' plans to Farmers Institutes. short course and to cities and towns throughout Minnesota; it made a small model showing the house in miniature, painted in an appropriate color scheme.
 l $3,OOO Village Home 4 l The Model Farm House competi- i ton met with such manifest approval on the part of the rural population that the Commission was led to insti- tute the competition for a Model Village House. to cost $3,0oo. There developed some fifty very excellent plans and material is being circulated by the Commission, as in the case of the model farm house. A model landscape design for a farm yard was sought through a competition. The i landscape architects submitted sixty plans for Model Farm Yards" This farm yard was intended to beautify the surroundings of the first prize 1 Model Farm House.

The Commission believes it's work to be of economic importance to the state and what is more, the people of the state are en- thusiastic in expressing this opinion.
