can scare -ly be built for less than
$50 90 cow housed, exclusived of barn
room for fodder, it will be seen that
interest and depreciation charges on
this equipment alone add quite con-
siderable amount to the cost of each
cows product in year.
This fact, added to the knowledge that
dairy cows are much better off when
kept in the open air as much as possible,
ard that the leading dairy sections of
Colorado have on the average less than
two weeks of below-zero weather at
night. led the writer to believe that it
is not necessary to build barn with
stall capacity for all cows in milk And
the experience of several good dairy
men in the state bears out this belief.

For AGrester West.

The question of food supply for the
hation is rapidly becominga vital prob
lem. The greater agricultural sections
of the Middle West are having all they
can do to produce the grain necessary
for bread. and it i. becoming more and
more apparent that the supply of meat
for the future must come from the great
1ntermountain country west of the Mis-
souri, river where the millions of acres
of cheap grazing land makes the grow
ing of live stock not only possible. but
profitable. The big job facing the west
right now is tie task of educating the
stock men and farmers in the most mod
ern and profitable methods in produc
ing meat The Western Stock Show
Association composed of prominent men
all over the West. was organized for this
particular purpose, and in the annual
exhibition held at Denver January Of
each year IS providing practical school
in modern meat making that is already
accomplishing wonderful results. Wheh
the first exhibition was held seven years
ago practically all of the exhibits came
from the Middle West. At the big show
to be held during the week of January
1920 next, the bulk of the exhibits will
come from the West ard will compete
agains the best the East can produce.
Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah and
New Mexico Will exhibit pure bred cat
tie, sheep, hogs and horses that will
compete against the world and will take
their share of the blue ribbons.
While this show is National in scope
it's intended especially for the education
of Western stockmen and farmers in the
only way that such education can be had
by comparison. The show provides an
opportunity that every wide awake
stock man and farmer should embrace,
either as an exhibitor or as a spectator
and student. 1t is business PROPOSE
ton.
The show in January will consist of
four departments: The Stock Show,
exhibits of breeding stock
and fat stock and carloads of feeders
and fat stock; the Horse Show, show
ing all kinds of harness horses in action;
the Feed and Forage Show. showing
what the West uses to produce live
stock; and the Poultry Show, which has
already become one of the great poultry
exhibits of the country.
Every stockman or farmer in this sec
ton should send for apremIum list, and
if he cannot exhibit, should at least ar
range to attend the show and secure
knowledge of what the live stock world
is doing. Premium lists can be had by
addressing the Secretary, Fred 7. John
son, Denver, Colo.

Barns For dairy Cows

The cost of producing milk has ad-
,anced rapidly of late years and has
resulted in forcing the dairyman to pay
closer attention TO the methods of pro-
duction. At the same time a demand
has arisen for milk pro;lucted under san
itary conditions and many cities have
completed these conditions by establish
inspection. Chief among the items of
equipment necessitated by such in
spection, is ID sanitary dairy barn where
cows may be MIXED with the least
possible likelihood of the milk becom-
ing contaminated, either by filth or un-
desirable bacteria And as such barn
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1911-10-26

tain in one milking square Or relay;
and probably there should not be over
three relays of cows. For example a
man having milking herd of SO cows
would provide milking barn for 80
cows.
This milking barn must be provided
with cow ties and managers for feeding
grain, SO that each COW may get her
individual grain feed according to her
production. Silage may be fed in this
barn or out of doors. The milking barn
should have an interior finish that can
be easily kept clean. A convenient
system of corrals also is necessary
This shed housing system possesses one
strong advantage at the outset
in that it requires much less outlay for
barns than complete stalllng system,
and many dairymen who have not the
capital to build large sanitary dairy
barn. can by this plan run IA perfectly
sanitary plant.
Mr. Paul V. Maris, field man for the
Division of Darying of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. who is co
opering with the animal Husbandry
Department of the Colorado Agricul-
tural College in dairy production work,

of our exhibit both at Pueblo and Colo

and his wife for the untiring efforts
they put forth to make this a success.

when kept in the open, it seems best
to accept this brief and slight reduc-
ton in milk flow rather than go to the
expense and labor of housing in warm
barns, with the increased danger of
tuberculosis which this involves.
My observation leads me to the belief
that the system best adopted to those
of Colorado possessing mild winters,
comprising practically the whole of
the eastern and the western slopes. is
what may be called the shed housing
system. This provides for feeding hay
out of doors in yards protected from
the sweep of the wind, with open sheds,
where the cows may 60 at will. A
milking barn is provided with room for
as many cows as it is desired to main,

men, stepted up and inquired if h
might take the vacant seat. We assur
ed him that we had no mortgage on it
and were delighted to enter into con-
versati0l about Boston and its we'll fur

In just moment, an observing
waiter stepped up and whispered to
know whetie. we had any objections
to the gentleman occupying the seat in
front of u.s. We told him "No, We
were delighted" and the dinner which,
was as good as one we get in Denver.
