Mr. Willlam A, Radford will answ . wer uestions. and zive advice I'REE OF ‘OST on all subjects pertaining to the llub]Ecl of building work on the farm, for the readers of this naper. On account of bis wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he 13, without doubt, the highest “authority on all_these- subjects. Address all fnquiries to Willlam A. Rad- ford No. 1827 Prairle avenue, Chicago, ;le'fi'lymd only inclose two-cent stamp, for Mauy people like to talk about the “good old days.” “lt sure was great when"—and so it goes. You kuoow what we have in mind: the backsliding business man who re- fuses to recognize progress and gZoes along in his okd way, berating modern ideas and longing for the *“‘good old times,” Well, he is out of -luck, and some day may awnken to the fact. And so it is with the farmer who puts his ‘back to improvements and clings to the old “red barn” and all that goes with it. He. wonders why his. neigh- hor, who has built a new barn with all the latest labor-saving equipment, #ets so much time to spend :in the fields or out in the car, and keeps his help. i i 1 The farm of today is a big business that requires a blg mind to run it guc- cessfully, just as the building business requires alert men to make a success of it. The two are inevitably linked, for tlie building program on the nod- ern farm is one of its most important problems. In this building program the dairy barn is of paramount fmportance. Thereln lles the source of real income, if handled properly. Only contented cows will turn out good milk and iw quantfty. And to nake for cohtent- Aside from_the detalls involved in the building of walls ‘and roof, of which the plank frame is quite popu- lar, the floor is the most important fea- ture of the modern dairy barn. But it might be well at this point to men- tion the placing of the barn with ref- erence to wind and sun. Because the | barn runs from the cold northwest, construction should, be arranged to méet conditions and the ! sucéessful:builder knows that dead air spaces will keep out cold afr. as was suggested. the big problem is the floor. In the first place, to be sani- tary, it-ghould be as near waterproof as possible. Furthermore, it must be easy to clean, durable and easy for the cow, =, .« For ‘all‘around service doncrete has Dbeen found very effielent for all except tlie stall,” The cow -¢annot stand on concrete very ‘long. without getting tired, nor can’ she very well lie on it without risk to health. IFor that rea- | son cork brick and creosoted block are used as flooring in the stall.

Because-they waut-to get the maxl- mum production with the help avail- able. And the fact that it is mighty searce fs no sccret. The farmer who owns that “old red barn” s continual- Iy fretting about getting hired help. “They're all zoing to the city,” is his plaint. But the sume complaint is not heard Jon the modern farm—because the help find something has been done to make work a pleasure. They do not break their backs shoveling litter into a wheelbarrow and carting it from the dairy barn. All they have to do is load it into the litter carrier and ' it.Is whisked away to the waiting mna- nure spreader outside the barn. And likewise with the feed. It is carried by feed-carriers which can be stopped in front of each stall. Any. equipment. which causes a re- duction in labor expense is an asset to the farm. Overhead carrier equip- ment takes care of that. Liberal track- age Increases the general comfort and convenience and insures the satisfac- tion of help which today s one of the most important problems of the farm' | ers. The purpose of any cow stall Is to provide a secure yet convenient means of tying the animal, which will at the same time afford the comfort and \ ment, one must provide Ventilation that will furnish fresh air and earry away the foul, poisonous air that hangs like « heavy mist about the animal; cheer- ful, germ-killing sunlight frow win- dows so placed as to give the maxi- num benefits at all hours and not just (uring certain periods; comfortable, clean stalls and stanchions and drink- . ing bowls next to the stalls, where the cow can drink at will. The vew Gairy barn should be built as a workshop, not merely a stable. It is here that the building contrac- tor and farmer can get their heads fogether and plan a barn that Will be mutually satisfactory and certainly the proper place for the herd. Certain es- seatial features should be iucorporat- ed in these plans to achieve what the farmer wants—production; and what the builder hopes to give—service. In the construction of the barn, cleanli- ness, cow comfort and health, conveni- and economy are factors to be - considered. Naturally, the site is important. It should be located on’ a suony, welk drained slope, where surface water will run away_ from the barn. Next, the size i3 to be considered.
