In February, 1802, I bought a little farm containing 7(1 acres, /|k which was entirely without a > barn except a little ohl log pen, FixIti feet, with a 10 loot shed on one side. This thing would not shelter more then four head of stock or more than one small i ] AUfl <> ' IV il !-!?? ?? J t l*rv.l lv?...

On this account I thought I had better try and get along with , the old barn rather than go in j debt still further for a new one. So things moved along very well , through the summer, and I made | a pretty fair crop; but as winter came nearer the thought began to j trouble me as to what I was to j do with the crop which I had made. I had tin place to -tore it away and no stock to eat it. I could not afford to sell my crop, tor my laud wn*. already poor ami needed all of tin- material to no hack on the laud 10 the shape ol manure.

In the spring there was very little manure to be found, j It had all been tramped down in! the mud, and the small quantity) I managed to get was of but little | \ s I ASTE LANCASTHR, S. value, as the ?>e-t <11" it lia.l .* ashed away. <>f cnur<?', I was very mueh diso-Mirajred at this failure, lor t h? re was a whole year's work gone, wit h t wo or t hree hundred dollars' worth of feed ntid manure gone with it, and I was not worth a cent more than I was when I bought the farm. If I had a good barn all of this loss could have been prevented and a good prolit would have been made on the cattle besides. My neighbors, seeing that I was pretty blue under the disadvantages that surrounded mi', and the outcome of my work, said that the winter h id been an uncommonly hard one on stock.' and that it' they wore in 11 iv place they would go ahead and try and get along without a barn anot her year. I went ahead and made another fair crop and took the same bunch ?>I cattle t liroiiu.lt another winter with about the same results as boloro. Then, alter carrying these cattle through the second winter, I sold them for about enough profit to pay tht! interest on the money which was invested in them. At this point I was I'ullv determined to have a good barn built before another winter came, regardless of what might follow, for I was satisfied that it would not make my condition any worse to go in debt for a barn than it would to try to farm another year without one. So I proceeded to buy fratn ing and other lumber which re quired to build a barn 30x00 feet on posts twenty feet high. I employed good workmen, and before the lirst frost came I had as good a barn as there was in this part of the county. Then I went to work with renewed energies, feel iii^iiuii i was jusi getting into the road to success, and I can thank (tod that so far it has proven true in my case. Soon after my harn was finished I had the third crop which i had made all stored snugly away. Then 1 needed another hunch of cattle. I soon managed to get the same number and as near the tame quality as the lirsl as could he found. I wanted to see I lie di Here nee my new harn would make. The la-t animal- cost a few dollars less than the first 'J", but alter keeping theiu in the barn one winter and giving tlicm gra-s one summer, I sold them for ne rh three time- a- much aI for t lie lie-* !? ! alter keejt : g t!. in t:i:* . _h t .'? v, inter-, in addition t?? tin- ! had nearly i i "i loads of iiianiire whiidi Were ui rth titily 1 <><?

I wish to advise o everv farmer who has not a good , w * ' i barn to build one at once, even! ?i ' t if he must live in a poor house j for a while and go in debt for hisj() barn. This, because with proper j p I management, the barn will soon u ! pay for itself and a good dwelling ! r \ house besides. I e j Taylor County, Kv.
