Well-Designed Barn Has
Much Advertising Value

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture)
A well-designed attractive dairy
barn has an appreciable advertising
value, especially when the owner de
rives portion Of his income from the
sale Of surplus animals. The cost Of
a new barn, however, should not go
beyond the point where the interest
on the investment, plus depreciation,
will become an excessive overhead
load.
Some of the other factors to consid-
er in building are climate, topography,
drainage, location relative to other
buildings, size and state of the dairy
mans business, fire risk, materials
available for construction, and local
regulations covering the production,
handling and disposal of milk. Farm
ers' Bulletin 1912, Dairy Barn Con
struction, just issued by the United
States Department Of Agriculture, an
swers many of the questions suggest
ed above. It gives correct principles
of construction of dairy barns; plans
of one and two-st9ry buildings; and
details Of the construction Of windows,
ventilating hues, COW stalls, floors and
drainage systems.

the supply lasts, upon application to

WOMAN VICTOR IN

AIDED BY TWO DOGS


Cottonwood Falls. Kan.-Mrs. j. q.
Adams, wife of a Toledo township
farmer living about seven miles north
east of Strong City, staged fight to
the death with a big timber wolf on
the Adams farm, which for thrills and
ferocity doubtless has seldom beenlsur-
passed here, even in the early pioneer
days when this country was wild and
filled with dangers.
Thought Wolf Was a Coyote.
When Mrs. Adams heard the com
motion in her poultry yard she saw
what she took to be big coyote.
Selling a stick, she ran toward the
beast, thinking to frightep him away,
when, to her surprise and horror, the
big animal turned on her with open
mouth, charging with almost unbeiey-
able swlftness.
Mrs. Adams fled toward wagon,
on which set a hayrack, but failed to
gain the rack before the wolf was
upon her. She barely had time to
seize pitchfork that stood against
the wagon, and with this faced about
and gave battle to the wolf. She

YOUNG CALVES LIKE
GRAIN GROUND FINE

The kind and amount of grain fed
young calf has much to do with its
yigor and growth Most calves viii
get interested in the grain box when
two or three weeks old. Grain is
cheaper feed than whole milk so the
calf should be encouraged to eat 1t
at an early age.
About the time the change Is made
from whole milk to skim milk, some
grain should be placed before the
calf If grain is left In the feed box
all the time it is likely to become
stale. Calves should have only what
they will clean up in one feeding.
Feeding grain Immediately after the
skim milk will help to prevent the
calves from sucking each other.
Young calves prefer grain finely
ground, but older calves like 1t coarse.
ly ground. After the calves are two
or three months old, whole grains may
be satisfactorily fed A calf viii con
sumo two to three pounds of grain
daily when three months old If fed
twice day, and usually more if al
lowed grain at will
Such feeds as corn, oats. barley and
kafir are excellent calf feeds. A good
mash can be made from equal parts of
ground corn and oats. Wheat bran
may be substituted for ground oats If
oats are not available. Equal parts of
bran, ground corn and oats make
good feed Oilmeal added to the ra-
tion tends to keep the calves sleek
and in good condition.
Calves will begin to eat small guam
titles of hay about the time they take
an interest in the grain. For calves
eight to ten weeks old, red clover or |
mixed hay is recommended in prefer !
ence to alfalfa hay, due to the latter |
often causing intestinal trouble. Lee

Good quality corn silage may be fed
when the calf is three months old or
older. Only the finer parts Of fresh
siIage should be fed Do not allow II
to lie around in the manger until
spoiled.

Box Stalls Recommended
for Maximum Production

Cows kept In box stalls produce more
milk and slightly more butterfat than
those kept n sfanchions, accordingito
the United States Department Of Ag-

product does not balance the added
expense for space, NEEDING, and labor.
Box stalls are to be recommended only
when maximum production is desired
regardless Of expense, as in testing

would be a good idea to see that the
girl got a home where she could rest,
with good food and plenty Of sleep,
until she was strong enough to get a
job.

Mr.. Knox. 'When she does get strong
