Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ninth Annual Report of the Board of Control of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station, (Geneva, Ontario Co;): For the Year 1890, With Reports of Director and Other Officers; Transmitted to the Legislature January, 1891 Since our last report your committee have, together or separately, been present several times at the Station, and have to report the following work as having been accomplished: The lawn extending from the gate to the cattle pens has been graded and seeded down, and graveled driveways have been extended along the cattle pens. The yards for the pigs east and north of the barns have been completed, and also others upon the west. The pump and tank have been connected with the windmill, for the removal of the liquid manure from the reservoirs underneath the manure platform. A small addition has been built on the dairy to provide for an engine room, which gives greater facilities for work in the dairy, the second story of which has been fitted up with arrangements for the manufacture of cheese in connection with the investigations of cattle. A summer shed for swine and another for a temporary brooder in connection with the poultry experiments have been erected. The orchards have been thoroughly trimmed, and many new fruit trees of different varieties planted. The pile of debris which accumulated during the building and repairs has been removed, and the driveway leading through the orchards laid out and graveled. A tile drain has been laid from the dairy, connecting with a main drain below the barns, and a line of tile laid to remove the surface water from the southeastern part of the farm into Castle brook.
