ance and real value Of the barn, they
are not considered absolutely neces-
sary.
One of the most interesting features
about the construction of this barn is
the way in which the large hay doors
are constructed. These doors are 10
feet in width and IL feet in height
They slide up and down in iron
grooves, so there is no swelling OF the
tracks to bother in wet weather. The
doors are hung by counterbalance
weights on %-inch ropes that play
over grooved pulleys near the top.
These weights run up and down In
boxes built the same as window
frames, so there is nothing to inter-
fere with their action. The advan'
tage is that the doors may be left part
ly open or pulled all the way down,
and they will stay in any position, re-
gardless Of the way the wind blows.
When the big NOW Is being filled
with hay it is a great satisfaction to
leave these doors wide open so that
the air can circulate through freely
from one end of the NOW to the other
The doorway is big enough to admit
large Lorse forkloads OF hay without
dislodging part Of the load trying to
pull it through. This feature will be
appreciated by the farmers who have
struggled with hay doors built on the
old-fashioned order.

This barn is SO feet in width and
70 feet in length, as shown by the
floor plan and is intended for the
stabling of 16 cows and IA horses.
The two stables are made entirely
separate by building solid partition
crosswise of the barn, as shown In
the floor plan. For convenience there
are doors at the alleys that may be
opened at chore time.
One farm Of from 40 to 80 acres,
where one barn is required to stable
both horses and COWS, this arrange
ment works out in very satisfactory
manner. Yards are provided to keep
the horses and COWS separate when
turned out, and they are as separate
inside as they could be in two differ
ent buildings. The yards are fenced
in such a way as to give the COWS
free access to the building from the
COW. stable end, and the horses are
always taken out or in at the horse end
of the barn. Similar doors are pro-
vided at both ends of the barn, and
windbreaks are built according to the
location, so as to protect both kinds
of live stock to the best possible ad'
vantage.
The construction of this barn calls
for good solid concrete walls with
footings. The foundation walls are
Az feet from the bottom of the foot
ings to the top Of the wall where the
stills are laid. The footings, are "a

Two rows of concrete piers are
built under the supporting columns
on both sides of the center alley.
These piers and columns are placed
to divide the stable into three Sec
