Sanitary Floors For the Dairy Barn

Caring for Cattle and Floor.
Regardless of the kind of floor bed
ding of straw or litter is an absolute
necessity: it keeps the COW clean and
|absorbs the valuable liquid manure
If the help cannot be depended on to
bed the cows properly, it is advisable
to use a removable wooden grating or
platform. Cork bricks also give sat
isfactory results, but are somewhat
expensive. They are set in a Pinch
depression in the floor and are held in
position on all sides by the concrete
acting as a curb.
With the proportions and thickness
given above, 4 bags Il barred of ce-
ment, 10 cubic feet OF sand (say %
cubic yard) and 20 cubicsfeet of crush
ed rock (about q cubic yard will lay
45 to so square feet of floor. The
