above the floor at the COW stable end
of the barn, which allows about eight
feet of headroom In the COW stable
This is an ample amount of headroom
for the COW stall end of the barn and
insures good ventilation. Headroom is
not of as great importance In the COW
stalls as 1t is in the horse stalls, so
long as the ventilation is not impaired.
The height of ceiling In the horse
stable end of the barn may be regu-
lated by the size and character of the
horses, but since the average man can
not reach q great deal more than eight
feet to put bride on a high-headed
horse, this amount Is usually deemed
sufficient height for headroom in
horse stall.
The floor all over the barn is made
level and smooth except in the manger,
gutter and standing floor part of the
COW stable. Extra planks are used in
the horse stable to give the floor the
necessary slant, and they also keep the
horses off the hard concrete. In the
center of the barn is the driveway,
WHICH Will ploUdDiy ne given severe
service. To take this into account the
floor in this section should be made
of very tough and enduring concrete.
The horse and COW stables are both
partitioned off from the driveway, so
that they are entirely separate and re-
moved from one another. The drive
way is open to the roof in the center,
but it is foored over at the sides of
the barn IA feet up from the floor to
continue the NOW space to hold as
much hay and other material as pos
sible. This driveway may be used for
various purposes, depending on the
type of farming and whether the barn
is being used as the main barn of
small farm or as an auxiliary barn on
larger farm.
One thing which recommends this
barn very strongly is the large number
of windows. Abundant light is fur
nished from all sides, the importance
of which is gaining more aud more rec
ignition as the investigation of sani-
tary conditions is carried on. The ex-
pense of including the large number
of windows is very slight and the adj
vantages of furnishing plenty of light
are many. In the first place light,
airy stable cannot help but increase

ton order, each pair of rafters forming
an independent truss, which, taken to-
gether, support the roof in a very sub
stantial manner without the use Of
any intermediate uprights or cross
beams. This roof construction not only
insures the largest possible capacity
but it is also an important factor in
the ease with which this barn may be
filled, since there is no obstruction in
the way of those working in the loft.
The corner posts are made by spik-
ing the side Of one plank against the
edge of another, forming an L-shaped
arrangement. The stills are made by
doubling planks and the plates are
built up in the same manner. This is
simple construction, but it is just as
solid as could possibly be had.

the chances for a healthful condition
of the live stock. At the same time it
is very much easier to keep sunny
stable clean. Cleanliness Is being rec
ognized as one of the most important
features in connection with the raising
of well-bred live stock.
For the large-farm owner who takes
pride in a few exceptionally well-bred
animals or who has a few animals that
are used for the personal convenience
and comfort Of the family, this type Of
barn furnishes an excellent means to
give these favored servants the best Of
care. The storage room available is
also helping factor in the careful
management of the farm, since this
space may be used for materials which
do not rightly belong in confusion
with the other various articles which
are necessary part Of every farm
equipment.
For the small-farm owner who
wishes to have as large capacity in
his barn as possible but who cannot
afford to give up the space necessary
to build large barn, this little big
barn offers a solution not only salts
factory in this respect, but at the same
time it furnishes him with a barn
which is up to the latest standards of
barn construction.

(By DIR. A. r. HANER, Veterinary De-
partment, Idaho Agricultural College.)
AS a general rule the handling of
the pregnant mare will not differ ma
terially from that of the unpregnant
animal. Practices of feeding or ham
ding which are dangerous to one may
also be dangerous to the health of the
other. 1t is best to allow the mare to
perform her usual work until within
few days Of foaling time, but in the
latter part Of the period of pregnancy
prevent straining while working, and
take especial care to prevent the feed
ing of moldy or musty hay or grain.
Both these factors may endanger the
life of the fetus and the mother by
causing abortion.
Where weather conditions permit,
it is best to allow the mare to give
birth in the pasture; but be sure the
pasture does not include the barn
yard. The next best place is a large
well-constructed box stall, well bedded
with bright straw. In regions where
navel i'll is frequent it would be policy
to thoroughly disinfect the walls and
floor of the stall and the external gent
tai organs, the udder, the tail and the
hind quarters of the mare a few days
before birth time. 1t is well to cut
the mares ration to one-half for few
days before and after birth.
In preventing navel i'll in addition
to the above some advocate the appli-
cation of powders, others of liquids to
the navel shortly after birth. In either
case the agents are both disinfectant
and somewhat astringent. Before APP
plying either there are two precau-
tions that are necessary: First, be
sure to disinfect your hands before
handling the navel. Second, squeeze
the jelly from the cord as it Is a IA
vorable medium for bacterial growth.

CREAM GRADING HAS
BECOME NECESSARY
Better Prices Stimulate Farmer
in Obtaining Improved Breed
of Dairy Cattle.
tBy L. G. RINKLE, Missouri College of

(By L. G. RINKLE, Missouri College of
Agriculture.)
The American farmer who sells
cream should insist that the creamery
grade his cream. This will tend to Gull
out the poor quality of cream and
make possible better grade of but
ter. Give the creamery a good grade
OF cream and they can make a good
grade Of butter. Good butter sells
for high price, therefore top prices
can be paid for the cream. Better
cream prices stimulate the farmer in
obtaining better dairy cattle and in
crease the desire for a more careful
study of economical milk production.
The close grading of cream has be-
come absolutely necessary. Within
the last few years creamery butter of
the United States has been meeting
with greater competition from foreign
butter. Butter from Siberia, Aus
tralia, Denmark and South America
has come to our shores by the ship
load and sold in our large markets
alongside American made butter. 1t
has poured into the United States on
both the eastern and western coasts.
Imported butter does not reach our
markets in as fresh condition as our
own butter, consequently the majority
of 1t sells as second grade. In many
cases it leaves the point of production
as frst-class article, but is so long
in transit that it deteriorates and ar
rives, as second-grade butter Unfor-
tunately the greater part Of American
made butter is also second grade. This
is not because it cannot reach the mar
ket at once, but because it is made
from a poor quality of cream. The
American farmer is not producing as
good quality of cream as his foreign
brother.
First-grade butter is still in big de-
mand' in this country and the pro-
ducers of good butter are realizing
nice margin in price over the producers
Of second-grade butter. Because of
foreign competition with our second
grade butter the differencelin price be-
tween first grade and second grade is
wide. Foreign competition has not
materially increased the supply of
first grades.
Because Of our poor markets for
second-grade butter the farmers in
every community should compel their
creamery to grade the cream, and
should do all in their power to see
that every farmer produces only first
grade cream. Then and only then
will that creamery be able to pay top
prices for cream.

A good powder consists of equal parts
of powdered alum, camphor and
starch. Tincture of iodine is a good
liquid, but it is best first to smear the
skin around the navel with some neu-
trail fat. Ligating the navel cord is
liable to be followed by serious con-
sequences if especial care in the use
of aseptic materials, in disinfection,
and the above precautions are not fol-
lowed 1t is an unsafe practice for the
farmer. Infection in navel i'll gains
entrance to the cord before the latter
has dried, usually during the first day
after birth. From the navel the fnfec-
ton is carried to the joints, liver.
lungs, or other parts Of the body by
the blood streams, producing second
airy assesses. Symptoms from the
latter may appear in from a few days
to month after the navel is infected.
The chances of recovery are best when
the symptoms do not appear until the
foal is several weeks old. The NOR
tally is about so per cent.
Scours is common trouble that
oIten proves 1dtal IN young and weak
colts. There are several possible
causes of this condition, as digestive
troubles of the mother, an overabun-
dant secretion of milk, and allowing
the colt to suckle the mare while she
is warm. The treatment for this con-
sists of giving purgative, e. g. one
to two ounces of castor oil, to remove
the irritating matter. It is advisable
also to give an antiseptic and sooth-
ing agent. A teaspoonful of a mix
ture of one part of salol to two parts
of bismuth subnitrate with half an
ounce of Drowned flour will serve this
purpose. The white of an egg is also
good. Treatment to be successful
must be started early while the colt
is yet strong.

subject of building work on the farm, for
the readers of this paper: On account OF
his wide experience as Editor, Author and
Manufacturer. he Is, without doubt, the

1t is often desirable to build barn
which will not take up great deal of
space, but when the small capacity of
this kind of structure is thought of,
the desire to build vanishes. Yet on
the small farm there must be barn,
end it must not take up too much
space; so the principal object of the
builder must be to find q design re-
quiring little floor space, but provid-
ing the maximum possible capacity. A
large capacity small barn is also very
useful addition to the buildings of the
larger farm.
A design is here illustrated which
meets the requirements of taking up
little ground and at the same time fur
nishing a considerable capacity. The
barn is good-looking, convenient
