A silo OF two Wal be found on a
great majority of the dairy farms in

Of the country. Filled during the sum

fresh cut feed all during the winter.
and IL has been proven that fresh feed
produces MOI milk and richer milk.

which is Of a size that will hold enough
roughage to feed the animals during
the winter,
Such a barn as this is a good In
vestment for every farmer who makes
a business of producing dairy prod
ucts. The barn is arranged 20 that
the work of caring for the animals can
be done easily and at a minimum OF
labor cost. Every essential need OF
the animals is provided for in the con-
struction Of the barn. They are kept
warm in winter, and are supplied with
fresh air. The stable is kept clean
and the animals will be healthy. And
II is the healthy and comfortable COW
that produces the most milk.
When planning TO build q barr or
rebuilding the old one so that II will
be modern. II is well to consult the
contractor who will build the barn
and the material dealer who will fur

men know about barn construction. and

structure set on a concrete foundation,

Connected with the barn are two silos
of sufficient size to house the winter

the barn will accommodate.
The floor plan shows how the stalls
are arranged. Through the center of
the stable runs a litter alley. wide
enough for a wagon to be driven
through. Along each wall is a feed
ing alley. The 1oor of the stable is of

the litter alley is a gutter, which makes
II comparatively easy to flush the ref
use that is left after the litter
is removed to an outlet that leads to
a liquid manure tank.
Over the litter alley is a carrier
hung To a track. This is indicated on
the plan by a dotted line. This is one
of the most valuable pieces of equip
ment. as il takes away the drudgery
of carrying or wheeling out the refuse
