A Farmers Exchange.


The 500 railroad announces the es-
Establishment of a Farm Market Bulletin
which will be issued monthly, or as Of
ten as conditions warrant, and which
will be posted conspicuously in all 500
Line stations. The bulletin is designed
to act as a medium Of exchange among
farmers, for livestock and. agricultural
products, for which there is no local
market. Farmers wishing to list what
they wish to buy or sell with this de.
partment, should notify H. S. Funston
supervisor of agriculture, 500 Line
Minneapolis, by the Goth of each month,
Livestock, poultry, farm products, eggs
lin fact anything produced or wanted
on the farm, may be listed. There is no
charge for the service, which should
prove of much benefit to farmers and
stock raisers particularly.

But he has realized that with the prop

much Of the waste around the farm,
and have made more profit. Now
he has chance to get the buildings
that have been denied him during war.

WEEKLY NEWS NOTES
(By County Agent Glenn S. Hensley.)

Schedule of Poultry Meetings
The County Agent, assisted by Mr..
I. s. Townsley, Extension Poultry
Specialist from the College of Agricul-
ture, has arranged the following Sc
ries of meetings:
THURSDAY, APRIL 10.
Bismarck-9:30 a. m.
c. H. Menge-2 p. IN.
Knob Lick-7:30 p. m.
FRIDAY, APRIL II
John Mueller, 10 a. m.
L. E. Cole, 2:30 p. m.
Bonnie Terre Y. M. C. A., 1880 p. m.
Mr.. Townsley is without question
one of the best poultry men in the
State. His talks will be very practi-
cal and everyone interested in poultry
should certainly make it point to
be present at one of these meetings.
Dispersal of Herd of Hereford Cattle.
The County Agent wishes to call
the attention of our Hereford breed
ers to the dispersal sale of the John
Burlbaw herd. Mr.. Burlbaw has some
of as good Herefords as there are in
the county. He has several times
topped our Annual Sale with heifers
from his large herd bull. 1t is the
hope of the Farm Bureau that the
Hereford men Of this county will see
that these good Herefords remain here
instead Of going to some other county
as our best stuff has often done.

by 99 feet. The horse barn forms an
ell and is 80 feet by SO feet. Adjoining
the rear OF the cowbarn are two silos,
IA feet in diameter.
Accommodates SO Cows.
The COW stable is designed to ac-
commodate "a animals In single stalls,
and four others in pens. The cows
are faced out, feed alley, five feet
wide, being between the wall and the
line Of stanchions. The litter alley
runs through the center Of the build
ing and Is eight feet four inches wide,
forming asdriveway through the barn.
The advantage of this arrangement
is that team can be driven In one
door, pass between the stalls, and go
out at the other end Of the building.
At the rear Of the COW barn are two
feed rooms, connected with the silos.
There also Is toilet room here.
The horse barn will accommodate
ten animals, eight in stalls and two
in box stalls. The farm office is at
one side Of the entrance and the har-
ness room on the other.
While only the general scheme of
equipment for this building is shown.
the plans contemplate the use Of many
specialties that make for efficiency m
doing the work required. The doors
are equipped with storm-tight, easy
rolling hangers; drinking water Is
piped to individual drinking cups at
each stall, providing clean, fresh wa
ter at all times of the day or night;
feed and litter carriers on overhead
tracks make the distribution of food
and the removal Of manure easy. In
the hay loft, a carrier Is provided.
Careful provision has been made for
ventilation, one of the most important
features Of the modern dairy and
horse barn. There are air pumps or
cupola ventilators on the roof, three
large ones on the ridge of the main
section OF the barn and fourth on
