WILDER J. Fraser of the University of
Illinois built a 6O-foot round dairy barn

farm at the university, Urbana, two
years ago, and has found it entirely
satisfactory. He took unusual pains
to find out the most suitable, convent

dairy barn and silO-the silo is essen

helped by the exact figures and ex-
perience of a carpenter who makes a
specially of building round barns.
And now he has given the exact and

construction to the public Tin bulletin

Experimental Farms Would

st. Paul, Mimi, June "a. Presi-
dent Brown of the New York Cen
trail railway spoke before the Mime
sofa Bankers association yesterday on
the High Cost of Living" He
argued that with the increase in the
supply Of gold everything measured
by and paid for with that metal is
invariably enhanced in value" and
that for this reason the pay of labor
has advanced in ration with the in
crease in the cost of the things la
Dor must buy.
Wants Experiment Farms.
While he favored a strong navy,
Brown would like to see the cost of
one battleship (about $IO.OOO.OOO)
devoted to the work. of improved, in
telligent agriculture. What one
battleship COSTS he said, would es-
tablish two splendid agriculture ex-
pertinent or demonstration farms in
every state in the union and I'll
guarantee if this is done and the
work intelligently and energetically
carried on that as a result of it the
value of the increased product of the
nations farms will within 10 years
buy and pay for every battleship of
every navy that floats on salt water
today.
Danger From Within.
UNLESS we can increase the prod

which we have to fear will be from

ger against which battleships would

Exact Cost of Material.
Much less material is required for
the silo in the center of the round
barn, but the silo must go outside the
rectangular barn. The 60-foot round
barn requires $3.50 for material, while
the 36x7S1a foot plank frame barn of
the same capacity requires $1,023 and
the mortise frame barn of the same
size $1,233. The same figures for a
90-foOt round barn compared with
plank frame and mortise frame barns
36x17634 feet are respectively s1,62S,
$2,00S and 81, 498. These figures CON-
pare the barns without silos. But a
60-foot round barn and silo requires
81 ,046 worth of material while the rec
tangular barn of the same capacity
and a silo requires $1,424, showing a
saving of 1919 for the round barn and
silo; and if it is compared with a NOR
tise frame rectangular barn, the saving
is $3.50. The corresponding figures for
a 9O-foOt round barn and silo are: ST.
O24, s2,71S and S3,20S. The full lum-
Der bill is given. Six other round
barns are more briefly described.
