The first step in the construction of a
dairy barn floor is to clear out rubbish
and bring the area to proper level. All

soft spots these should be tamped solid.

right so that steel stanchions will fit.

from one quarter inch up to ~ inches.
Concrete must be placed in form i'm

a BROOM is one of the necessary

house. 1t is usually detested because it is
such back breaking job to use it.
Much necessary cleaning-up work about
the house is eliminated when walks are
built between the house and barn and

Of course the farmers wife will benefit
most by walk, but it also appeals to

made in two la, ers. The lower layer
is a lean mixture a I'd four or five inches
thick while the top, one inch, is a rich
mixture. Due to the difficulty of getting
good bond between the two layers
there is danger of the top layer crack
ing.
A few hours after the walk has been
finished, it should be covered with moist
earth or straw and kept wet for at least
one week. At the end of this time the
walk can be put into service.
Concrete sidewalks besides being at

maize a concrete walk

providing they follow ~
few simple instructions. In the
first place the ground where the
wax is to be built should be drained,
leveled and well packed before the con-
crete is placed.
Forms are most easily made of by
4-inch lumber set on edge and held in
place by stakes, as shown in the drawing
This will make a walk q inches thick
which is ample under ordinary conditions.
Nothing could be more simple to make
than a sidewalk. 1t is laid in a single
thickness and no reinforcing is required.
Where driveways cross the walks it is a
good plan to increase the thickness to
6 inches. In making forms the tops of
the by as should be the height of the
walk so that they will serve as guide,
for a I by straight edge to be used as
a template in leveling the concrete when
filling.
After the concrete has been carefully
struck off with a template, the surface
should be finished with a wooden float
in order to give it gritty surface. A
metal float makes a smooth slick sur
face which is not desirable because it
is likely to become slippery in wet
weather.

construction a I:2:4 mix is recon-
