Tor the COW stall end Of the barn and
insures good ventilation. Headroom is
not OF MS great Importance III the COW
stalls us 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 great deal more than eight
feet to put bride on a high-headed
horse, this amount is usually deemed
sufficient height for headroom In a
horse stall.
The floor all over the barn is made
level and smooth except in the manger,
gutter and standing floor part of the
constable. 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 probably be 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 1T Is floored over Mt 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 rs the main barn Of n
small farm or as IN auxiliary barn on
u 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 and more rec.
ognition 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 nd.
vantages of furnishing plenty of light
are many. In the first place light,
airy stable cannot help but increase
The Pickens sentinel. (Pickens, S.C.) 1911-2016, 1916-07-27

the chances for healthful condition
of the live stock. At the same time it
is very much easier to keep a 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 few exceptionally well-bred
animals or who has 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 a necessary part Of every farm
equipment.
For the smnll-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 Sespect, but at the same
time 1t furnishes him with n barn

tion order, each pair Of rafters forming
an Independent truss, which, taken to-
gether, support the roof in 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 m important factor in
the ease with which this barn may be
filed, since there Is no obstruction in
the way Of those working in the loft.
The corner posts are made by splk-
ing the side Of one plank against the
edge Of another, forming an L-shaped
arrangement. The sills are made by
doubling planks and the plates are
built up in the same manner. This is
simple construction, but it Is just as

didn't know the distance from the

one up. And he could not describe a
