SATISFACTORY MACHINE SHED

As the result of our reference t to a machine shed W. H. Dunning sends In his. plan, says the Orange Judd Fanner. Selecting a well-drained spot with a south front, the best shingles that could be procured were used for the roof of the shed and the sides are shiplap up and down, which will paint The front is all doors and no sill to lift over. There is only one hinge door, the hinges being set in enough ao that the roller doors will pass on

a track nailed onto the 2xß plate before the roof is put on. Use as short a roller as possible, so it will roll under the eaves. After passing the door there is a space 16x24 feet, so that it is not necessary to move everything to get what is wanted. The heavy machinery will go through the ten-foot door and can be taken in and out with a team. This Bhed may be built longer and the same kind of doors used without more hinge doors.
