In fact on most small farms this is the most convenient and efficient type of bullding. It serves to house not only the darly herd but the horses as well. ' In building this barn, however, it is important to install the right kind of equipment and use the best materials. "Extra expense at the start will save money in the long run. Méby farmers make the mistaké .of building a cheap structure without réalizing that it will not last any length. of time, and will be ‘& ‘contin- ual source of trouble and expense as long as-he has'it on his farm. The the rear'of éach row. ' As in the case of the main aisle in the center, these, “ltter alleys'are ulso équipped with car- rier tracks and litter carriers which carry thé manure ‘and litter "directly from the stalls to the manure pit. All stalls are divided by steel partitions and fitted with sanitary stanchions and drinking cups. These features are im- i portant and should not be overlooked by the farmer. A steady water. sup= ply, such’as is furnished by individual drinking cups helps to increase the milk ‘supply and also’ eliminates the work of driving the cows to a trough. _All' slong the stall floor are high double hung windows Insuring plenty of daylight to<make the stalls ascheer- ful as ‘possible. - Fresh air inlets in the cow barn, as in the horse section, provide plenty of ¥resh air at all times. Fonl air shafts draw off the poisonousy gases which are liable to settle near the floor. At one end of the cow barn ‘two pens for cows and bulls, ‘Although giving an impres- sion of bigness this building is not un- by 32 feet.

Lorenz was loath to’ leavé his prdctice in Vienna. Armonr offered to pay any amount if he would make the trip. It was final- ly agreed that the physician should retelve $100,000 and all expenses for himself and staff to go to Chicago and try to cure the child. The surgeon attended the child in the Armour home: hére. The sur- geon discarded the knife and used the compelling strains of straps and weights as a substitute, The five-| yéar-old girl was under an anaesthe- tic for two hours. Efforts of Lorenz and his staff were centered on forc- ing the hip bone into the socket. Af- ter two hours wotk there was a sharp “elick:” The surgeon released his grip on the tiny body.

During a short stay in Vienna, she learned how to walk-and when the family returned to this country, she ran down the gangplank of the boat, and played as any healthy, normal child. She later became an accomplished sportswoman and was noted as an equeltinarian. Lolita has taken a great interest in Chicago’s charitable institutions, but her greatest efforts have been toward aiding institutions caring for crippled children. Following her cure, her father built a two million dollar home for her at Lake Forest, a Chicago suburb, and called it “Melody Farm.” home at Santa Barbara, Cal., into a hospital for American crlm:\ed sol- diers.
