DECREASE INDICATED
IN ANIMAL PRODUCTS
Losing Ground In Value Of Ex-
ports Since 1893.
World War Brought Percentage Up
Suddenly to 2s.4, or Almost Double
What u Had Been In Pre-
eedIno Five Years.

Animal products have been losing
ground In relative position In the val
ne of the agricultural exports of this
country since 1898. In that year they
were 29.S per cent of the value Of all
domestic agricultural exports, and. by
5-year averages. they were 2S.4 per
cent in lS94-ls9s. 27.2 per cent In
ls99-1903. PAS per cent in 19O4-ls0S.
and 100 per cent In 19O9-l913.
Then followed the world war. This
brought tie percentage for animal
products up to 29.4. or suddenly to
fraction almost double what II had
been In the preceding five years
The percentages for crops and crop
products being complementary to those
for animal products. II follows that
crops gained relatively when animal
products lost. and lost when they gain
ed. II Is to be remembered that values
are involved and not quantities
Steady gain In relative position In
the imports Of this country has been
made by animal products. and the war
accentuated the gain. From iSe4-1S9S
TO 1914-191S. the fraction representing
these products increased from 27.5 to
391 per cent.

Ghafts, and keep the air In the stable
sweet and clean. Seven windows on
each side of the stable permit the
entrances Of sunshine. which helps to
keep the stable sanitary.

pay every dairyman who has herd
Of any size to equip his barn with run

Is available, is shown by a 24-hOur

tanning "a animals There was not a

the animals was not drinking. Tests
also have shown that a continuous
supply of fresh water in the stable
will increase the flow Of milk 10 per
cent.
Such a barn as this is not expensive
to build. Costs, however, vary in diff
ferent localities and il is not possible
to give figures on the cost Of con-
struction of this building. A consul
tation with the local contractor and
lumber dealer will bring. an estimate.
This should be done at once, II the
barn is TO be finished by the time the
herd is brought into winter quarters.
Such a barn as this Is a good In
vestment on any farm where special
attention is paid to dairying. 1t will
save its cost in a few years In the
saving made In labor and in the in
crease of milk production. To save
labor requires that the labor saving
barn equipment be installed.
Costs of material that go into build
ings have been greatly reduced during
the last few months and better sup
ply Of lumber and other materials
now is available. A visit to the local
material dealer and the contractor
will show that this is good time to
build whether a new barn, home or
any other farm building is needed.

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 dalrymen the
value Of modern, sanitary, well-ven-
tllated and conveniently arranged COW
stable. One observer on recent
trip through the middle west remarked
on the number of barns that we're be-
ing built. That is not surprising
when 1t is considered that the modern
dairy barn will save 30 per cent In
labor costs, and increase milk pro
duction from 10 to 20 per cent.
One type Of the modern dairy barn
is shown in the accompanying illustra-
ton. Here is a frame structure, set
on masonry foundation that is only
30 by ~ feet In dimensions, but will
house 80 milking cows and enable the
owner OF the herd to do the work
necessary in caring for the animals a
great deal more quickly and with
smaller number OF men. 1t Is so de-

Cutting corn with machinery does
not reduce materially the cost of cut
ting. II does, however. enable the
farmer to cut a given acreage much
more quickly, and, In that way, often
proves profitable. The proper time for
cutting corn in order TO preserve its
full feeding value is so short and
other work is usually so pressing that
the saving of time often means a
great deal more In the farmers pocket
than could any actual saving in wages
and other cutting costs. This is the
view taken of corn-harvesting ma
chinery by the United States depart
ment of agriculture, as expressed In
Farmers Bulletin 992, the Use Of Ma
chinery in Cutting Corn. The saving
is greater in cutting corn for silage
than for fodder, the bulletin continues.
The two types of corn-harvesting
machinery, the corn binder and the
platform harvester, are discussed in
detail. Under normal conditions, II is
stated, the binder drawn by three
horses will cut about seven acres in a
ten-hour day. One man will be re-
quired to operate the machine and two
to shock the corn. These three men
working with corn knives would prob
ably be able to cut about four acres
IN ten-hour day. The binder, there
fore, does nearly twice as much work
as the three men could do without 1t.
Objection to Binder.
There are, however, limitations and
objections to the use Of the binder. II
the corn is badly blown down, the
binder may not be able to handle 1t
and may have to stand idle through a
season. The binder necessarily knocks
or some Of the ears. and 1t may be
necessary to send a man over the
field to pick up the ears by hand. Men
at first find ii harder to handle the
bundles from a binder than to handle
loose stalks. Some binders drop the
bundles so nearly behind the machine
that the horses have to walk over
them on the next round, and thus con-
siderable damage is done to the corn.
However, the specialists say, these OBJ
jections can be minimized even where
they cannot be completely obviated.
The Fayette falcon. (Somerville, Tenn.) 190?-current, 1920-09-03

In order to make the use Of the
binder worth while. the reduction In
labor and the saving due to getting
the work done at the proper time
must more than pay for the use Of the
machine, the twine, and the labor OF
the horses.
The saving is greater when cutting
for sllage, for several reasons. The
binder saves the labor of at least two
men In cutting. Often the saving In
time due to having the stalks In
bundles instead of loose will enable
the operator further to reduce the
size Of the crew. II only small
amount OF silage Is to be put up, a
binder would not be a paying opera
ton unless there were n large guam
tity of other corn to cut. The coop
erative use of both binder and cutter
is discussed and is recommended
where the only corn cut is that for
sllage. Cooperative ownership and
use of the binder Is said TO be fire.
quently advantageous for small farm
ers. The use of the corn elevator in
connection with the binder Is dis
cussed. and both the advantages and
disadvantages pointed out
Platform Harvester Cheaper.
The platform harvester, while a
cruder machine than the binder, Is
much less expensive to purchase. re-
quires only one horse instead Of three
or four, and two men instead Of
three. It's days work Is about four
or five acres. Generally, the equlva-
lent of the labor of one man is saved
every day the platform harvester is
used. The work is harder with the
platform harvester than with the
binder. But the platform harvester
can be used more profitably on small
farms than can binder and II can
stand idle a greater part Of the time
or wear out sooner than binder and
still be profitable investment. In
cutting corn for silage. the platform
harvester will not save as much labor
as a binder.

In exterior appearance this is

with broken lines. and is attractive In
appearance. Adjoining is sllo. II
feet In diameter. of hollow clay
building tile, wherein Is stored the
winters supply of fresh feed for the
COWS. Above the stable is a roomy
NOW for hay and other roughage.
The floor plan that accompanies the
exterior view OF the barn shows the
layout of the COW stable. Through the
center of the stable runs litter alley,
along either side OF which are 10 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
ter and carry the feed TO the hangers
mechanically. The dotted lines show
the course Of the carrier. At one end
the track runs out to the manure
pile or pit. At the other the track
connects the feeding alleys with the
feed room and silo chute.
The floor of the stable Is Of concrete
with steel stall partitions. At the rear
OF the stalls. along either side OF the
litter alley lie gutter, pitched to a
drain, making II an easy matter 70

plan to have the drain connected with
a concrete tank for liquid manure.

things that nature provides that cows
need indoors as well as out. AT the
same time there should he no drafts on
