of the shed part of the balm, which
makes it possible to get out any piece
of equipment that is wanted without
disturbing the other machinery that
may be stored in the shed at the
time.
In the horse stable end there are
standing stalls for six horses and also
two box stalls, each ten feet in width,
that can be used for any purpose. A
small space is provided with a we'll
built cupboard, where the harness car
be kept.
There is at least one window pro!
vided for each stall, and the double
stall and the box stall each have two
windows. A wide passageway is pro
vided through the stable SO that equip
ment of various kinds can pasE
through the barn to the equipment
shed at the end.
The foundation walls, which are OF
concrete, are carried above grade
about Is inches, which is good
feature, as it protects the frame
from coming in contact with the wet
ground A concrete wall of this kind
also forms an effective barrier against
vermin.
A very large storage space for hay
and straw is provided in the large
NOW over the stable and shed. The
roof is of the framed gambrel type
and is self-supporting, so that no col
umns or pillars are needed to block
up the space in the upper part of the
building. The trussed barn roof Is
almost universally used now because
| of this feature.
This particular plan shows build
ing such as would be most practica
for the average-sized farm. The cos
Of construction would not be verl
high, and the arrangement would ht
very satisfactory to the man on tht
farm.

Columbia is valued at approximately
$30,000,000. The figures for 1913 ex-
ceeded that amount. while the prod
uct last year was some $4,000,000 short
of that of the previous year. The de-

compared with 1913, was due to the
European war, which disturbed the
metal markets throughout the world,
producing a depressing effect on the
industry in British Columbia, says an
