(From the Montana State COllege.)
~OWS kept in a warm, comfort
able barn in winter produce
- more milk and require less feed
than those poorly housed. This fact
has been so frequently demonstrated
and is so generally accepted that it
would seem almost unnecessary to
mention it, and yet there are many
barns in Montana used for housing
dairy COWS which would indicate
that the owner never gave a thought
to the matters of warmth and COM
fort. A little money, wisely spent
in sheathing, building papers and
other insulating material is well in
vested.
Besides keeping the COWS comfort
able, a good dairy barn should be
convenient for doing the chores, and
so constructed that the milk may be
kept clean and free from odor. Thus,
a barn must be warm, well lighted
and properly ventilated, the interior
well arranged and made of such mat
erial, in such manner that the COWS
may be easily kept clean and sani-
tary.
The size and arrangement of the
barn will depend largely upon local
conditions and the type of dairy
ing followed. A large loft will furn-
ish convenient storage for hay. Thir-
ty feet is the minimum width for a
stable with two rows Of cows and
40 feet the maximum width. The min
imum height for a stable ceiling is
seven feet, the maximum nine feet,
The higher the ceiling the colder
will be the stable during severe
weather

Properly Constructed BARNS
Increase Dairy Profits

It is impracticable to develop a
standard barn plan for all farms of
given size, and standard model barns
have met with but little success The
plans given in a recently published
circular by the Montana Experiment
Station, DAIRY Barns for Montana
Farms" which may be obtained by
writing to the Station at Bozeman,
are meant to be suggestive and may
be changed to meet the desires of
the builder and his particular con-
ditions. The size Of the barns shown
in this circular may be altered by
changing the length. Certain di-
mension and interior arrangements
should be standardized and the plans
offered give the principle standard
dimensions.
Generally speaking, concrete is the
best material to use for floors, walks
cutters and managers. However, in
areas where lumber is cheap and ce-
ment expensive plank construction
may be used. .
Since sunlight is one OF the best
agencies for destroying bacteria and
keeping barns sanitary lighting de-
serves special attention. A barn
should contain at least four square
feet of window light for each COW.
White paint or whitewash for the
interior surface is desirable.
Poor ventilation is a cause of much
i'll health in dairy cows. The barn
should be constructed and so venti-
lated as to make possible a fairly
constant temperature of 45 to SO
| degrees in cold weather. Muslin
curtains may be used to provide
proper ventilation but a standard
ventilating system is recommended.
There should be a maternity stall
10 by IL feet for every IL to 2(
COWS, pens for young calves should
be at least z to 10 feet wide. A boz
stall, 10 by IL feet, or a sinble stall
opening into a yard, makes a good
place for the herd bull.
If hay is stored in the loft above
the cows, the floor should be tigh,
to prevent dust from filterinl
through into the stable. A room 70.

venient.

PURE SEED SHOWS
GREATEST YIELD
(FrOm the Montana State COTIege)

(FrOm the Montana State COIlege).
MARINERS of central Montana are
losing large sums annually by
not using pure seed, according
to d. B. Noble, county agent of
Fergus county. Registered and ap-
proved seed Of adapted varieties Is
outyielding the commonly grown
kinds by many bushels per acre. The
superiority of Karmont wheat m
cunts to five dollars Llore per acre
than Turkey Red.
According to Mr.. Noble, the farm
tests that have been conducted COM
pairing KarmOnt with other varieties,
have substantiated the results OBJ
tanned in the experimental tests at
the Moccasin sub-station. In expert
mental tests. Karmont has outyield-
ed Turkey Red approximately five
bushels per acre during the past five
years. Farm tests show that this
variety has been from three to seven
bushels better than the commonly
grown varieties.
In the case of spring wheat the
story is the same. Pure strains of
Marquis are ~outyielding common
marquis In every test. The added
yields have meant an increased re-
turn Of at least three dollars per acre.
Supreme, the spring wheat variety
which is showing up so prominently
in turn, is outyielding Marquis, and
all indications are that it will soon
be the leading spring wheat in the
state, says Mr.. Noble.
The farm tests that are being con.
Quoted to demonstrate the best vari
cites to grow under central Montana
conditions will be continued, says tn,
county agent. All promising varie
ties of spring wheat, winter. wheat
oats and barley are included in thes,
tests. Through them, farmers hav,
an opportunity to find out the i'm
portant characteristics and yieldin,
ability of different strains.

We do not know who dis

man who led the way across the

was the first [ so far as is now
known to write a description Of the
lake. =
The more we read about this man,
David Thompson, the more we Won
der how he obtained his knowledge.
He had no early education aside from
that Of a charity school. His father
died when David was three years old
and h ismother placed him in the
Grey Coat school in London. Then he
was apprenticed to the Hudson's Bay
Company for the next seven years,
during which they were not paying
much for his services. By his own
reading and his love of mathematics
he became an astronomer and survey
or and accomplished his wonderful
work in Northwestern Montana and
Western Canada, among the Rockies
and down the Columbia river. He
was the first white man to see three
fourths Of the Columbia river.
