Overview

Excerpt from Seventh Annual Report of the Board of Control of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station, (Geneva, Ontario Co.): For the Year 1888, With Reports of the Director and Officers When this property was purchased by the State, the dwelling, which was very spacious and expensive, was considerably out of repair. The barns, stables and other outbuildings were in still worse condition, and so badly arranged that the expense of storing crops therein and removing them for threshing or feeding often absorbed a great portion of their entire value. They could not be repaired nor reconstructed with economy, but some of them might answer, at least temporarily, for storing and exhibiting the agricultural implements which we were assured would be donated to the Station by our leading manufacturers, and others might be used for the valuable varieties of swine, of which the Station already possesses a considerable number, and possibly others might be used for poultry, though it will be better to build new for this purpose, with suficient land and suitable arrangements for developing this important industry.
