1t is not often that cows have their
meals wheeled to them from truck
trays and tea wagons but such is the
case at Fernside Dairy, the splendid
farm of C. H. Fuller just outside the
village limits of quaint old Norridge-
wock The tea wagon is small
cart bearing compartments in which
different grains are ranged while on its
shelf are dishes of salt, cow tonic, etc.
This is moved about over the tieup
walkway and the SO cow kind thus re-
ceive their provender rations. By
means of a unique arrangement, feats
ures of which are large bin, track
and wheel the ensilage is brought up
from the depths of the big silos to "a
floor level and then dumped upon low
truck with revolving castor wheel in
front and two ordinary wheels in the
rear. Thus these dainties. the entree
of the morning and evening meals, are
whe eled to the bovine family.
Mr.. Fuller probably has more unique
arrangements in his stables than any
other farmer in Somerset county.
Among these the more noticeable are
