fer large cows and they breed with
that end in view.
In building a dairy stable dairy
man is governed by local conditions.
The stalls given in this plan are
plenty wide and long enough for Jer-
seys or other breeds of cows weighing
up to 1000 pounds.
The alleyway in the center of this
stable is built wide to drive through
with the manure spreader and for the
handling of bedding and other litter.
The horse department is partitioned
away from the COW stable by good
board partition that reaches to the
ceiling. The two doors opening into
the horse end of the barn are hung
with weights, so they always pull
shut. Most farmers like to have the
horses and cows entirely separate.
The ceiling over the horse depart
ment is feet in height. The ceiling

noticeable odor when entering from
the fresh air outdoors.
The most penetrating Odor is am
monia. When animals are confined in
a well-built stable they are constantly
throwing off through the breath guam
titles of devitalized air. Experiments
have been conducted to show that a
mouse confined in jar that is filed
with the breath of an animal will die.
Prof. F. Fl. King showed that COW
needs twice as much pure air by
weight as the food she consumes,
which means that cow will breathe
$500 cubic feet of air per hour.
The problem of supplying SO much
air to each cow in a crowded stable
containing 80 or 40 head is no easy
task
The Importance of pure air has only
recently begun to be thoroughly appre-
ciated by farmers for the reason that
cows until recent years have never been
kept in large numbers on the farm.
Formerly a dairy farm consisted
Of five or ten cows that were stabbed
in one side of loosely constructed
barn to be fed and MIXED. During
the greater part of the "a hours, they
were turned out into the barnyard to-
forage around the straw stack or un-
der the sheds.
The increased value of live stock
| during recent years has resulted in
the building of barns to accommodate
large numbers of cows. Likewise
horses are better stabbed, because
farmers have recognized the value of
good buildings. Many of these build
ings are equipped with thorough sys-
| tens of ventilation. but, unfortunate
| ly, some have been constructed on old
lines without proper consideration for
! the needs or requirements of large
numbers of cattle in close confinement
Professor King probably did more
than any other man to call attention
to the great necessity of changing the
air in stables constantly days and
nights. His ventilating systems were
constructed to admit cold, fresh air
from outdoors in such a way as to
spread it out over the cattle near the
ceiling. This forced the cold air down
ward in the stable and outward to the
outlet ventilators that have their open

A general purpose barn for farm

companying illustration. 1t is so by
% feet in size and is built to stable
eight cows and four horses.
The barn has a concrete foundation
wall and concrete floor. The stalls
are of the approved kind used in the
best dairy stables. The stanchions are
of the turning or swinging pattern,
and the stall partitions are of iron.
Each COW stall is 3 feet inches wide.
This width measures out even, and it
is about right for the average COW.
The length of the floor from the
manger to the gutter is feet 6 inches.
The gutter is 16 inches wide. These
sizes are about what dairymen prefer
although there are dairy farms where
the cows average extra large. For in.
