B Motoring out the Battersea road, @8 you reach the brow of the hill be- yond Kingston Mills, you look across a deep valley and see on the hill be- yend, a large white building; its many windows flashing in the rave of the setting sun, its green roof giv- ing it a home-like appearance, the two tall towers rising like fortifica- tions, adding an old world touch to this modern and up-*o-date building. 'Another long, low barn is to "the right and other smaller buildings to the rear where trees is a comfortable brick house. This is Hemlock Grove Stock Farm, the property of Alfred H. Fair whose grandfather and grandmother, Mr. and Mrs. Willlam Fair, came from Ireland over one hundred years ago to try their fortunes in the much- talked of new country and settled on this land beside the Great Cataraqui river, Many are the stories told by Mr. ~Falr, senior, James Marshall Fair, | 125 cattle to.stand i {pear to inconvenience | yson's huge barn inventions shelter for | stack or in a the rule in is visited by view the big stable 15€ as was The barn who for daily, room 3 ng rows r own place do not ap- animals in mfortably any i of steel pens, kept the | by moveable yokes that the least; they lia down ¢ lon their clean straw beds and chew behind the tall "Pine | | | the cud of content.

The walls are concrete with a two-inch alr space between it and the white brick, made on the place, with which they are lined, the windows, with the uppeg part opening to admit a draught of air, are of double glass, with a quarter of an inch alr space to prevent frosting in the winter.
