The rebuilding of the barn has been nearly completed as authorized at the September meeting of the Trustees. Although not so large as is needed, it will enable us to shelter our stock and store food for them in part. The farm work is fairly up to the season. Some of the corn matured late and not all the crop has been gathered. The live stock generally is in good condition. The sales of fat stock and breeding cattle have been a t unprecedentedly low prices.
