Better Barns.
In the first place. 1t is necessary to
have better barns for-dairy cattle than
are customarily used for beef cattle.
The dairy COW is confined to the barn
for large portion OF the year and
consequently the barn should be well
ventilated, well lighted and sanitary In
its construction If a good quality of
milk is to be produced In large quanti-
ties. Owing to the fact that the COW
converts her feed into milk and but
ter-fat rather than into beef. 1t is
necessary for her to have better shell
ter because she cannot Withstand the
cold weather as can the beef steer
whose body is at all times covered
with thick covering of fat which
acts as protection from the cold.
Seven Points Worth Considering.
In barn for dairy COWS the
following points should be observed as
essentials: Convenience. light, heat,

Unless the dairyman has had consid-

them, only to be disappointed. due to
the fact that they have not given them

been those who have started in with a
small number of pure-bred animals

that he never bought but one COW. This

determine the true producing value Of
