Biblical Account Of DELUXE

Many expressions in the account of
the flood apply to the whole earth and
all living things Oh the face of the
earth except those in the ark with
Noah, and no exception is made of any
part CT the earth. It is sal. "Au the
high mountains that were under the
whole heaven were covered. Fifteen
cubits upward did the waters prevail.
and tie mountains were covered" But
even this may only mean the earth and
the mountains of the earth as they
were known at that time and not to
the whole terrestrial globe. AS the
FOOD was sent to punish mankind, ex-
ce2t those in the ark with Noah. il
was only necessary that it should cover

Floor Plan.

about In space built around a rec
tangular arrangement of feed racks In
the center. The number Of animals
which the barn will house is deter
mined by the number which can be
accommodated at the feed rack with
out crowding, and the size of the
space around the rack should be made
such that the cattle may move about
and adjust themselves in comfort.
The barn should be provided with
surnclent storage capacity to hold
enough feed for the number of cattle
to be housed in the structure, and
from the standpoint of convenience II
must be fitted in such a way that this
feed may be easily given to the cattle.
The elimination of manual labor is
one of the largest items which has
entered into the recent DEVELOPMENT of
farm-building architecture. 1t neces-
states the arrangement of all farm
buildings in such manner that ad-
vantage may be taken of the modern
labOr-Saving devices which farmers
have found so valuable. Farm build
lngs are no longer thrown together
with the sole purpose of making them
large enough and strong enough.

which is we'll arranged and designed
to meet all the latest improvements in
this type of structure. Space for loose
stock is provided for on both sides and
one end of the barn. Feeding is es-
pccially well cared for.
Storage for roughage reaches from
the concrete floor to the peak in the
center of the barn and spreads over
the floor of the wings above the cattle
on both sides and at the far end. By
noting the size of the various parts of
the barn it will be observed that the
combination of the center portion with
these wings afford considerable NOW
room, which will hold a great deal of
alfalfa hay or other feeding and bed
ding rOughage for winter use
The center part of the barn above
the concrete foundation is built of up-
right posts, which reach 10 the plates
and are braced in strong and durable
manner. This construction permits
easy moving of hay by rolling it down
from the high center. Outside of the
center area the barn is fl0Orcd To make
the stable warm and to extend the
storage space clear To the low roof at
the sides. All hay and roughage is
taken in by horse fork through the
large hay door or is blown in by the !
stacker at threShing time. The hay Z.
door slides vertically and is balanced |
by weights, this being the most salts /

and the feed racks, but there is still a
very generous space allowed in which
the cattle may move about. There are
no dark corners in this part Of the
barn. The doors are so distributed
that the cattle may be driven into the
barn from three sides.
The arrangements for stock feeding
are very satisfactory to stockmen
who have tried this plan. 1t furnishes
correct solution Of the problem dur
Ing any kind of weather.
A further important point which
should be considered in the construc-
ton of a barn Of this type is ventila-
ton. A large number Of cattle housed
together In a building require a large
quantity of air, which must be kept
In constant motion, the fresh air be-
ing drawn In near the bottom Of the
structure and the foul air being dis
charged at the top. Air should not be
to recirculate through the
stable. since on its first passage il is
robbed of much of the oxygen which il
possessed upon it's first entrance into
the barn. Ventilators which are
placed on the highest points of the
roof are very necessary. The cattle
barn shown here has two good venti-
Iators on the roof, which pull
uraft no matter which way the wind
blows.
