Excerpt from Farm Buildings This book treats of the location, planning, construction and repair of farm buildings. The material presented was collected from various sources by the authors; from their experience as farmers, experiment station workers and teachers. An effort has been made to group and present this material in an order which would make it practicable as a text book for college students, a reference for secondary schools and a source of information for the farmer. The farm building problems have received more attention during the past decade than during the previous century. New types of buildings have been developed, new materials have come into general use and new constructions have replaced the old. Furthermore, the change of agricultural methods has affected farm building problems. For instance, expensive farm machinery must be protected from weather and live stock requires shelter by buildings formerly offered by timber. An effort was made to pick out the practical and simple and present it in such a manner so it could be utilized by the student or farmer as a source of information and guide in building. While a course of study is not outlined, the teacher of farm building construction will find many problems which may be selected to fit any course.

Excerpt from The Book of Farm-Buildings: Their Arrangement and Construction The object of this work is twofold - one, to establish principles upon which the planning of farm-buildings should be based - the other, to concentrate correct and valuable information on the nature and use of the materials employed in constructing farm-buildings. It may astonish those of our readers who are agriculturists, to learn for the first time that principles should still be sought for in the planning of farm-steadings, after so long an experience of their use. The surprise would be greatly modified were they to take into consideration the care that should be bestowed in placing the numerous apartments of steadings relatively where they should be; and they would then discover that these are generally by no means so conveniently arranged as they might be. At any rate, it is clear that the same arrangement of apartments in a steading for a pastoral farm, where livestock alone are reared, would not be suitable for a strong clay land farm, where no stock are reared at all. We contrast these two extreme cases to make our meaning the clearer. But, however great a difference of arrangement is required in such extreme cases, a material difference also exists in cases even more alike. It will at once be admitted that a different arrangement should be made where stock are reared from where they are not; but even where stock are reared, it must also be conceded that considerable difference in the arrangement is required where the sorts of farming differ.

Excerpt from Farm Buildings: With Plans and Descriptions In some parts of the country carpenters may be employed at two dollars per day, while in other sec tions they get seven. One farmer may have a good gravel pit on his farm so he can haul it to the building Site at odd times at little or no extra expense. Another farmer, wishing to put up the same kind of building in another county, would pay two dollars per yard for sand or aggregate at the car and haul it several miles. Prices of lumber and other building materials also vary in different parts of the country. Therefore any general estimate would prove misleading.

Excerpt from Modern Farm Buildings: Their Construction and Arrangement As regards the advantages to the owners of estates who, from time to time, have been enabled to equip their farms with sufficient buildings for their requirements, and such as are properly adapted for administering to the most approved methods Of farming pursued in their district, there can be no divergence Of Opinion.
