r*>HE ktod of bufldlBgs neededon ' ■ the farm, their airangwasnt 1 JL location awl the kind of 1 material to make them of are ' problems that often pvplex the farm- 1 «r who Is Juat starting out to Improve ' Ms place. No attempt will be made ' here to give any speddc plana, since 1 the buildings must be constructed to 1 meet the varying requirements of dlf : ferent farms and toe still more vary- 1 lng Ideas if toe owners. A few saggeettone, however, may help to solve I some of toe most troublesome building I Aside from toe bona* which wOl be 1 considered In toe next article, toe ' most important farm." buDd&g Ts the ] This ts usually built aa a shelter for the cows, horses and young calves and to provide a storage place , for bay. The barn should not be lo- | cated near enough to the bouse so that , the odor will be objectionable nor too , far away, as this makes too many exstops. About 800 feet Is s good .

no. xxxi— ova or thx bxst types or 1 f abm bash. <

distance, if the] yards and manure ] piles are on the ade away from the bouse, as tbey should be. 1 The basement type of barn, tbopgb 1 use to some extent, is not very pop- : ular, even on farms where it can be 1 easily built The lower^rt is damp ' and dark, and it is difficult to secure 1 proper drainage. These disadvantages make it desirable to construct the 1 entirely above ground on a solid I foundation. On many farms there sre 1 plenty of "nlggerheads," which can be 1 used as foundation material. The floor ' should be of cement throughout The < cost is but little more than that of a 1 wooden floor, and it Will last several 1 times as long. A cement floor Is cold I and for tbls reason should be kept 1 1 -Well bedded. If this is done there can I be little objection to this kind of a I floor, even for horses, although some owners prefer to cover the ce- I ment with a false floor of plank. The remainder of the barn may be I of several different materials, of ' which wood, in spite of its advancing ; price, is still the cheapest and most convenient Next in order come cement blocks and tile brick. When lastqualities are taken into considera- ; tion these are even preferable to wood, 1 A good shingle roof is very satisfac- 1 tory. though one of thp many kinds : of prepared roofing may be substituted at a saving in cost and will probably last Just as long. In form the hip , roof is the best as It costs but little ! more and adds considerably to the capacity of the haymow. The plan of | having the hay come down to the , I ground in the center of the barn Is not economical of space and Is liable to ( cause tbe barn to spread. It is better , | to obtain the extra hay room needed' by making the sides a little higher. A small room In tbe barn which can | be used as & workshop for repairing tools, harness and doing other "rainy [ day jobs" will be found very handy. It is always best to have tbe stock face to the outside. This gives them I better light and ventilation and keeps ■ tbe stable walls from getting splat- : tered with manure. If the barn Is j located on a knoll where water from I surrounding ground cannot flow down , around it and provision Is made for carrying away the water from the roof, little further drainage will be needed. It is wasteful to allow tbe liquid manure to drain away and be lost, and It causes unnecessary work to drain It Into a manure- pit and haul | it to the places wbere It Is needed in a water tight wagon. A much better plan Is to use bedding enough to absorb It all. There will always be plenty of this at band In tbe form of straw, shredded fodder and spoiled hay. By this plan all toe fertilising value of tbe liquid manure will be saved with a small amount of work. A litter carrier or a wheelbarrow Is a great help In cleaning out tbe stables. When a litter carrier Is used the manure spreader may be left standing in the yard snd filled direct from the carrier. Whenever It gets full tbe manure ma; be battled out and spread where It is most needed. In this way it reaches tbe fields with a small amount of loss. A point that should be looked after In tbe construction of the barn, and one that is too often neglected, it provision for sufficient light Not only does plenty of light make the barn a more convenient place to work, but it also keeps tbe stock healthier by discouraging the growth of bacteria. Tbe horse stable especially should be well lighted, since horses are liable to have their sight injured by being kept in a dark barn. Along with light should coma plenty "S

In case there are many dairy cows <*' :• anlrnsh to be fed a alio to at ' .< most a neeeaslty. it should be located at tbe end of to* bam nearest the cow - ■table in radar to l«een the work at fowling. By having the yard tor the ; young cattle cloee to tbe sflo they can be fad from it with little extra work. A silo sixteen feat to diameter and - thirty feet high to about toe tight aba for a 160 acre farm. The diameter 1 should always be small enough no that two or three inches can be fad off tbe top each day. This insures trash silage all tbe time. Tbe greater number of silos in use at presenk are made of wooden staves. These are cheap, and If a good quality of wood to used tbey will last a long time. Cement and brick sHoa are practically indestructir ble, but are rather., expensive. A new type of silo that Is proving very satisfactory is maije of hollow building tile. This material is as cbeap as staves and lasts as long as cement For the young stock, fattening cattle - and 8 beep cheap sheds furnish ample shelter. These can be made of common boards well battened, with strong cedar posts for a framework. The roof should be water tight A twelve foot opening on tbe south wOl answer tbe of a door. These sheds should be on high, well drained ground and must be kept well When this la done tbey are fully aa good aa a more expensive shelter. A separate lambing house will, of course, have to be provided fra the ewes as spring approaches. For the man who la making a specialty of bogs toe "colony system" of bouses' U probably the best Fra tbe average farmer, however, tbe extra amount of work which this system in- , volves more than outweighs its advanof cleanliness, freedom from dtoease and keeping tbe hogs in smaller On most farms the central bouse comes nearest to meeting the requirements. Along with it a taw individual houses are convenient for around to the stubble and, clover fields or other places where tbe may happen to be located. Little pigs need a great deal of sunlight and this, together with the liaof hogs to become diseased, makes it imperative that the hog bouse be provided with plenty of windows. By running It north and south and having a row of pens on each side each will receive an equal amount of 7. sunshine. Where the building faces I the. south the north row of pens does ' not receive Its share of sunlight, and the outside yards on the north of the house are almost always shaded and cold. The floor, like that of the barn, should be of cement. It Is a good plan to extend it out about twenty feet on each side to make feeding floors where toe hogs can be fed and watered without getting I11 tbe mod. By having all pen and yard partitions movable they can be arranged for sows and Utters or for fattening swine, as needed. A feed room In one end of tbe building where grain can be stored and feed mixed up Is a great convenience. A corncrlb should lie located close to one end of the feeding floors, so as to sim^^ri^HieiMiog>u^^menln^Jf

8 tee re are ted another crib should be built with one end next to a string of feed bunks, so that toe feeder can walk right out Into them with toe com when feeding. A double crib with a bin for oats on one side should be placed near the barn. In the winter the driveway ' may be used for grinding feed. . « A good weather proof machine shed should be built on very farm. It may be located almost any place where It will be out of the way. There should be a row of wide doors all along one side bo that it will be possible to take an implement out or to without moving everything else in tbe shed. All wooden buildings should be kept well painted. Painted wood still last three times as long as that not so treated, to say nothing of tbe gain in looks. — A little attention to some of these points in locating and arranging tbe buildings and yards still cut tbe srork . of doing choree in
