moisture as is wood when 1t is placed
underground. Concrete is also used
to large extent In making the floors
of all kinds of barns, but II does not
have the clear claim to the field here,
as there are several types Of floors
that are becoming very popular. and
for many purposes they are better
than concrete.
No matter what type of floor is de-
cided upon. 1t is absolutely necessary
that the ground underneath be com.
pacted smoothly so as to furnish
support for the floor. Any floor will
look like failure If the foundation
falls out from In under 1t in spots
and allows 1t to sag or break in this
place. The walls and foundations are
put in first and the ground Is then
smoothed of for the floor. The ground
should be wet thoroughly so that 1t

There are two types OF floors that

particularly adapted to horse barns.
as the concrete surface Is sometimes
so slippery that the horses are likely
to fall. The concrete floor does not
bother the cows. and 1t Is used to

be easily changed over TO serve as an

uses to which buildings on the farm
can be put.
The nine COW stanchions occupy one
side of the barn and the other is filled
with three large box stalls. The litter
alley runs through the center between
the stanchions and the box stalls. The
COW stalls are built with concrete or
other special barn floors, which are
placed on slant SO as to drain read
lily into the gutter A concrete man
ger is built along the front Of the
stanchions. The box stalls can be
used for any purpose that is desired.
and very often they are used for grain
bins until other storage has been pro-
vided.
The upper part of the barn contains
the NOW in which the hay and the
straw can be stored. The floor Of the
NOW should be made with matched
boards, so that the chaff will not fall
down on the cows. This Is an impor-
tant feature in any barn and is often
neglected.
The ventilation on small barn such
as this is often taken care of in two
ways. Some farmers insist on regu-
lar ventilating system with intake and
outtake flues leading to the ventilator
on the roof Others say that with
small barn the windows should be built
so that they can be opened at the top
a little and the barn ventilated in this
way. II seems rather useless to install
a complete ventilating system for so
small barn, and the latter way would
therefore seem to be the best. The
ventilator on the roof is used to ven
tilate the hay NOW, and also adds con
siderably to the appearance Of the
building.
