Conservation of labor on the farm

problems. Farm labor has followed

able difficulty In getting sufficient help,
even at the present high wages.
The very nature of dairy farming
makes it especially difficult for the
owners Of comparatively large herds
to secure help. Caring for the herd,
is work that is done in the early morn
ing and in the evening. and the aver
sion of the modern farm helper to
work the long hours required makes
it necessary that those in the dairy
industry use all the labor-saying meth
DDS that the prosperous dairy farmers
have devised.
Most of the work on the dairy farm
is performed in the barn. ConseE

quently modern barns are planned and
equipped so as to make the work
easy. Overhead carriers transport
the food to the hangers, and carry
out the litter; individual drinking
bowls, one for each two stalls, do
away with the work Of watering the
animals. Concrete floors. with gut
ters at the real of each stall. provide
a means of cleaning the barn by wa
ter under pressure.
Couple these conveniences with
milking machines, and more than half
the labor formerly required to take
care Of the dairy cows and their prod
ucts is eliminated.
Experienced farm building archi-
tects have learned many things about
planning dairy barns during the last
few years, and the dairyman who
builds from these carefully drawn
plans gets not only a place in which
the work can be done efficiently, but
gets a winter home for his herd that
keeps them warm, healthy and pro-
ductive. These are advantages that
appeal TO the progressive business
farmer, for. in the end, they mean de-
creased costs of production and in
creased profits.
In, the accompanying illustration is
shown a modern dairy barn of good
size and the silo, which is a most
valuable feed reservoir. This barn Is
what is known as a 'gambrel roof
barn." of plank frame construction.
The barn sits on a concrete founda-
ton, the walls of which form the
dairy stable. 1t is SO feet wide and
I16 feet long and provides stalls for
AZ mixers, pens for their calves and
box stalls for the bull, IL the owner
has a sire for his herd. Above the
stable Is NOW space for sufficient
roughage to carry this number of an
imals through the winter, while the
silo provided storage for the fresh
food the animals need to continue
a maximum production Of milk
through the cold months.
This is a weather-tight, w~ell-venti-
lated structure, The stable floor, 1t
will be noticed Is well lighted by the
almost continuous row Of windows In
the side walls. On the roof r ven
tilators, which are connected with

Probably the most valuable, from a
l~abor-saving standpoint, piece of barn
equipment is the overhead carrier.
While a carrier track is not indicated
on the plan shown, most barns are
equipped with them. The track ex-
tends over both the feeding and litter
alleys, and runs TO the silo, and to
the manure piles at the back of the
barn. Many dairy farmers have their
milk houses located ear the barn and
extend the carrier track TO the load
ing platform, thus providing a me-
chanical means of carrying the milk
to the storage house.
Practically every barn built these
days is 36 feet wide, architects hav-
ing found that this standard size pro-
vides room for a double row Of stalls,
