An encyclopædia of agriculture [electronic An encyclopædia of agriculture [electronic resource] : comprising the theory and practice of the valuation, transfer, laying out, improvement, and management of landed property, and the cultivation and economy of the animal and vegetable productions of agriculture, including all the latest improvements, a general history of agriculture in all countries, and a statistical view of its present state, with suggestions for its future progress in the British Isles encyclopdiaofa01loud Year: 1831 470 SCIENCE OF AGRICULTURE. Part II. 2956. As a commodious and very complete design, we give the following. The dwell- ing-house contains two parlours (Jig. 449. a, b); kitchen (c) ; dairy (d) ; pantry (e) ; dining-parlour (f); bedrooms (g, h); cellars (i). The farmery consists of cart-sheds 449 >~ nnnnh and granary over (a) ; riding-horse stable (6) ; common stable (c) ; stalled cattle (d) ; places for tools and other articles of the cattle attendant (e) ; entrance from the spacious root or turnip shed (/) ; straw (g) ; threshing-machine and water-wheel (h) ; granaries and straw-lofts over (g, /, m) ; tools and sundries (/) ; smith's shop (j) ; carpenter's (k) ; yard for pigs and sties (?i) ; place for straw and turnips (o) ; open yards with sheds for wintering cattle (©), and exterior passage*^). The different elevations of this design here given are on too small a scale to be adequately judged of by a general observer; but whoever has paid a moderate degree of attention to architectural lines and forms will foresee the good effect of the ranges of arcades and pillars, the far-projecting roofs, and the general symmetry and regularity, as far as the requisite attention to fitness for the end in view will admit. We regret we cannot render justice to the author of this design by mentioning his name, and we have even forgotten whether we copied it from the General Report of the Agricultural State of Scotland ,â The Husbandry
