 List of Farm Building Plans
By the Srarr of the
AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING SECTION
Pllgé
19 IN THIS CIRCULAR, the plans marked   were prepared by
members of the Agricultural Engineering Section. The plans embody
19 suggestions of Kentucky farmers and the advice of specialists in every
19 line concerned. Those marked   and "U.S." were selected
especially for use in Kentucky from designs prepared cooperatively
19 by a number of agricultural colleges and the U. S. Department of `
Agriculture. In this cooperation, the experience of many individuals
20 has been used in making available to the states these excellent plans,
20 at a much lower cost than if prepared by one state.
21 ’ The Extension Division of the College of Agriculture and Home
Economics has published a number of booklets and folders contain-
21 ing additional information on various types of buildings and equip-
22 ment, a list of which will be found on pages 23 and 24 of this cir-
* cular. All the publications listed are for free distribution, except
22 “`l’lans for Dwellings and Farm Buildings in Kentucky," for which
23 there is a charge of 15 cents. The illustrations in the latter booklet
23 will help in selecting a plan and in visualizing the appearance of the
Hnished structure.
lf a plan is needed for a type of building not found in this cata-
23 log, write for information. All correspondence pertaining to this
° service should be addressed to the Agricultural Engineering Section,
23 College of Agriculture and Home Economics, Lexington.
This circular is a catalog of plans for farm buildings and
A equipment suitable for use in Kentucky. For each building or
Piece of equipment, a set of detailed drawings has been prepared.
_ Blueprints of the plans may be obtained from the Agricultural
Engineering Section, College of Agriculture and Home Eco-
nomics, Lexington, for a charge of 10 cents a sheet to cover cost
n  of labor in making them. Order from the list by name and num-
ber of plan and send remittance with the order.
