While consumers have been COM
planning of the increased cost of milk.
the lot of the producers has not been
a bed of roses. High prices of feed
and the greatly increased cost of labor
are two factors that have made milk
and the other dairy products cost
more.
There is one way in which dairy
men can reduce their costs of produc-
ing milk. That is by cutting the labor
cost. That can be done by conducting
his operations in a modern building
the barn.
Experience has taught dairymen the
value of a modern, sanitary, well-ven-
tilated and conveniently arranged Gov
stable. One observer OH a recent
trip through the middle west remarked
on the number of barns that were be-
ing built. That is not surprising
when it is considered that the modern
dairy barn will save 80 per cent in
labor costs, and increase milk pro-
ductiOn from 10 to 20 per cen
One type of the modern dairy barn
is shown in the accompanying illustra-
ton. Here is a frame structure, set
on a masonry foundation that is only

The floor plan that accompanies the
exterior view of the barn shows the
Layout of the row stable. Through the
center of the stable runs a litter alley.
along either side of which are Is COW
stalls. On either side Of the stable,
with the stalls facing them, are feeding
alleys. Over both the litter and feed
ing alleys is a carrier track. which
enables the owner to remove the lit

mechanically. The dotted lines show
the course of the carrier. At n end
the track runs out to the n
