 A most kindly spirit of friendship exists between the young and old pupils of the school. They mingle to- gether on terms of perfect equality and the games of childhood they play appear to be enjoyed equally by both. The younger pupils do not taunt the older ones with either their age or color, and, on the other hand, the older ones take no soffense- when coached by the younger ones in their studies.

MODEL COW STABLES.
Constructed Along Modern Lines and
Supplied with an Approved sys-
tenn of Ventilation.

Mr.. II. E. Cook, of Denmark, n. Y,
is one of the conductors of the New
York Institutes. lie has given much
study to barn building and ventilation.
He keeps on his farms in northern New
York about 100 cows. Wishing to build
new barns on the most up to date and
improved principles, he Investigated
all the best plans for barns and sys-
tenn of ventilation, and then built a
barn which he finds satisfactory in
every way, and is thus well equipped
to discuss the subject, and the follow
ing are some of the points he makes
in his address on Barn Building and
Barn Ventilation" at the Institutes:
A few years ago, before farmers be-
gan to build warm stables, when the
most of the stables were so open that
there was always plenty of pure air
for the cattle, we heard but little
about tuberculosis. Farmers began
to build stables that were very tight
and warm, but they gave little atten-
ton to the subject of ventilation, and
the result of close confinement of cat

should be inches long and / inch

Slip lever into fork OBJ and insert a

an improved barrel churn.-C. +.

DEPENDS ON THE MAN.
Create Private Butter Market
But Attention to Details.

The farmer who wishes to make
butter at home must pick up a route
and retail his own butter, as he viii
find that the stores don't want it and
won't handle it, They can get cream.
cry butter that is reasonably uni
form, and will give them less trouble
than trying to handle butter made by
Tom, Dick and Harry. Even the care
full private dairyman is at a disad-
vantage unless he has regular private
customers. To-day one farmer told
us: Il am using separator and take
great care to have everything neat
and clean, and do make frst-class
butter, but / can't sell it az any of the
stores. The creamery near US only
averages 10 cents per pound for but
ter fat, and we can't make anything
at that price, but their butter always
sells and ours won't. We dropped out
because we got discouraged trying to
give them clean good cream, while
there were lots of patrons who took
no care of their milk and were very
dirty" This man acted discouraged
and wanted to sell some of his cows.
His only hope is to work up private
trade. One man from a neighboring
town recently brought in lot of
his own butter, and canvassed the
stores, but couldn't sell pound, or
hardly get an offer. He was discour-
aged, but he has reputation for not
being neat A near neighbor of the
latter brings in weekly what 30 good
cows make, and has a steady trade at
25 cents in summer and 30 cents in
winter. He also sells chickens, eggs,
apples and beef. He makes good but
ter, is neat, and I believe is prosper
ing. 1t all depends or the man.

PRACTICAL DAIRY DOTS.

The good COW is a comparatively
lean one.
Breed is well enough, but it will
take feed to show what there is in
the breed.
In the dairy generally large yields
per animal means a less cost in MAX
ing them.
Good and regular milking is of the
utmost Importance, as it develops the
milk-secreting organs.
Concentrate your efforts on a small
area, thus economizing material and
stock, as well as labor
The all-the-year-round COW is the
paying COW, and the real dairy cows
tend in that direction.
The chief advantages of the cream
cry system are cheapness of product
from the saving of labor.
The function of milk-giving is
maternity and the mother needs
shelter, warmth and comfort.
Moderate exercise is necessary t.
maintain health and has a stimulat.
ing effect on milk production.
One reason why so little is made
out of poultry is because so little eff
fort is made to improve the stock.
The dairy farmer should own the
best land, milk the best vows, hire the
best hands and make the best profit.
The churn should never be filed
more than half full and then if the
temperature is right it will churn
easily.
1t is very important that milk or
cream is not exposed to anything
which would contaminate 1t by alb
sorption.
Butter win come much quicker
sometimes than others, due generally
to a difference in temperature; use o

tie in poorly ventilated stables has
been cattle diseases, and no doubt is
one of the causes of tuberculosis.
which has destroyed many herds in
this state. Much of the poor milk
which goes to the creameries is caused
by the conditions in the stable.
The best material with which to build
a stable is pine lumber. / would not
build stone stable. They are often
damp | would use matched lumber
for the walls of the stable, putting it
on both sides of the studding so as to
make dead-air space. | would build
the stable only nine feet high, and so
keep the warm air down where the
cows are; 500 cubic feet of space is
sufficient for each animal if the stable
is well ventilated.
You can build cement floor as
cheap as you can build a plank floor,
and it is much more durable. You
can have plank for the cattle to lie
on If you wish. For the foundation
of the cement floor nothing is better
than cobbles, or small stones, grout-
ed. For the top layer use Portland
cement and sand in proportions of
two to one. Be sure the sand is clean
and sharp. Make the top layer about
two inches thick, and do not make it
too smooth.
The King system of ventilation is
now acknowledged to be the best, and
is explained by the cut.
The outlake fues are sc c" with an
opening at I'd" provided with a door
or some means of opening and clos
ing. The flues have their opening
about IS inches from the floor, pro-
vided with damper, one on each
side, passing up through the ceiling
and out at the highest point of the
barn. They can be built of wood or
galvanized iron. Wood is preferable
on account of being nonconductor
of heat.
They must be tight and thoroughly
insulated in order to maintain a tenn
perature of the air high enough to
prevent condensation. One flue, one
foot by two feet inside measure, will
be necessary for every 10 to IL cows.
The intake fue "E F." as shown with
an opening at GA" with the outlet
at B." need not be over six or seven
inches in diameter, and is also pro-
vided with hampers. No definite rule
can be given for the number, as much
will depend upon openings near the
doors of the barns.
For the best results the stable
should be ceiled with matched lumber
as closely as living room, and then
provide all fresh air through these
intake flues. Usually, under these
conditions, two of these small intakes
should be provided for each large
outtake flue.-Ohio Farmer.
