MODERN STABLE FOR DNRY FARM Sanitary and Healthful Home for . Herd of Cows. $ILOS PRESERVE FRESH FEED Sunlight, Fresh Airand Warmth, Three Things That Make Cows Pro. ductive and Healthy Are Provided For. By WILLIAM A, RADFORlD. Mr. Willlam A. Radford will answer 1ueslions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to. the subject of building work on the farm, for the readers of this paper. On accont of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he is, without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. | Address all inquiries to Willlam A. Rad- ford No. 1827 Prairle avenue, Chicago, Pe‘filyand only inclose two-cent stamp for Now that spring is fast turning into kummer, it is time for the owner of the modern dairy farm to begin to vlan the new buildings he may need to house his herd next winter. TFor it n undisputed fact that a modern, #anitary, weather-tight and well-ven- titated cow stable and barn is one of the greatest profit producers for the owner of a dairy herd. Summer is the time farmers are required to build new buildings or remodel the old ones, for in the warm waather the stock takes care of them- selves and bullding operations can go on without inconvenience. However, | barn. Also numerous pieces of labor- of the stable and over the feeding nl-} filethbd ‘ot‘nrrnnglng t}le equipment so that the wopk can be done casily and quickly is used in the modern dairy | saving equipment are:installed. ¢ The stall partitions usually are of steel, sct into the concrete floor. These partitions are easfly kept clean and | sanitary. either of concrete or some of the less hard floor materials, such as cork brick or wood block. / Back of each stall is a | gutter, which permits the refuse to be | washed to a draln whence it is piped | to a liquid manure tank. | Overhead is a carrier track runnlng over both the litter alleys at the sides | ley through the. center of the bullding. | The carrler that is hung to the track provides a means by which the litter can be removed to the manure piles | at the rear of the stable and by which | the food can be distributed to the stall | head. Drinking cups, which are connected | | to the pipes from the water pressure | system are located at the stall head, one cup for each two cows. These frinking cups or bowls are ln;euloua | devices. They have a valve in them | that turns on the water as the cows ! press down their muzzies, and shuts off the water as the cows raise their heads. Careful watch has been lu.-pt/ cn cows in stables where there are drinking cups, and it has been recol ed that there is little time in either the day or night when one or more of the animals are not drinking. Records | of milk production in the. same sta-| i i | bles show that where fhere is a con- tinuous supply of fresh water, the ani- mals give from 10 to 20 per cent more milk. | Fresh feed during the winter s an- other important thing for profitable dalry farm operation.

The advartages and good features of modern dairy barns and.cows’ sta- bles have been pointed out in these articles numerous times, but they are so important to the man who wants to et the maximum of profit from his herd that they will bear repetition many times, unlight. fresh air and warmth afe the three things that make cows pro- ductive and healthy. And nature fur- nishes all three without charge. The dairy herd owner, however, has to sup- ply the building in which nature's wifts may be conserved and put to work for the profit'of the dairyman. A cow stable designed to house the herd in the most profitable v shown in the accompanying illustra- tion. This is a one-story cow stable, lesigned so that the milk producers will be kept warm and comfortable in winter, will be supplied with plenty of fresh air, and their surroundings will be sanitary. The building is 102 feet long and 7S feet wide, and is of frame construc- tion set on a concrete foundation. This building is what is known as the “monitor” type, taking fts name from the shape of the roof. Along the side walls of the building are 26 windows, 13 on each side, while in the monitor part of the roof {here are as many more windows, equally distributed on elther side. These windows are one of the most jmportant features of the building. In the first piace they face the east and west, so that whenever the sun is fhining in the winter the building in- terlor gets the full effect of it. Cows provide their ovrn warmth in winter, nnd the better they are protected the less heat they throw off. Heat is produced by the food the animals ¢ sume. So it can be realized that the {ess food required to produce heat, the more food will go toward milk pro- duction. That is what a weather- tight warm cow stable does toward increasing milk production. The feed (he animals consume goes to milk rath- er than to produce heat to keep the cowS warm. The sunlight admitted by the many windows also has a purifying ‘effect on the air in the barn. It will be uoted by consulting the floor plan that the 34 stalls are grouped in four blocks and that the animals face the center of the building. This arrange- ment-throws the litter alleys to either side of the building. where they get full benefit of the sunlight. When it Is remembered that sunlight is na- fure’s zerm killer, it will be under- ctood that there is a strong motive for this arrangement. Another feature of the modern dairy barn is its equipment. The factory there are two silos, which combined have suflicient capacity to provide the animals this building will house with fresh feed all through the gold months when the cows gre inside. It is in such stables as this one that present-day dairy farmers are housing their herds and are making them a great deal more profitable in- vestment than under the old condi- tions. A modern dairy barn or cow stable will pay for itself in, increased revenue in a few years. KEROSENE LAMPLIGHT BEST Efficiency of the Eye Declared to Be Best When a Yellow Flame Is Used. There has long been an impression that Qvllm\ light is more agreeable to the eye than that containing/chiefly | the green. and blue Tays, and it is | generally, believed, for example, by many medical and technieal men that | the kerosene flame produces a more “restful” light than other illuminants. especially than incandescent solids. This supposition ‘has been submitted | to careful tests by C. E. Ferree and G. Rand, and the results have appear- ed in the Transactions of the Illumi- nating Engineering society, remarks the Scientific American Monthly., The| experiments have compared the kero- | sense flame with the light from the | carbon incandescent lamp, the Mazda lamp and with Welsbach mantles con- taining various amounts of ceria, and therefore varying In yellowness. TiHe | standard of comparison is the efli- | ciency of the eye as determined by the ratio of time during which stead- ily ‘observed type is clear or blurrefl. The results obtained from numerous careful, prolonged experiments indi- cate that there is some justification | for this impression, as they indicate | that the efficiency of the eye diminish- | es more rapidly with light from the metal filament than with that from kerosene, and decreasing yellowness in Welsbach mantles also diminishes this efficiency of the eye. The au- thors, however, are not yet prepared to state positively that yellow light is better than white, but merely tliat yellow is better than green. To Clean Paintings. A successful way to clean oil paint- ings is to sponge them quickly with pure soap suds. After drying the sur- face with a soft cloth, rub the picture with a chamois skin barely mqistened with sweet oil India’s Cotton. The total estimated yield of the In- dian cotton crop for 1919-1920 is 566S.- 000 bales of 400 pounds cach. India can supply not more than 25 per cent of the testiles for domestic demand.
