Here Principal Mr. Ken Scott, (with his back to the photographer ) distributes trees to Randy White, Murray Wht eler, Karl Spence, Dianne Willis and Murray Nichol and explains how the job is to be done. (Staff Photo) Recommend hot weather ventilation in farm buildings . As summer approaches, live- stock operators should check the ventilation systems in their barns. Maximum air movement through the building is required during hot weather. Operators should ensure that the fans will deliver their rated capacity, says M. Sojak, Engineering Division, Ridgetown College of Agricultur- al Technology. The following are some of his recommendations. for maximum efficiency of the ventilation sys- tem. First louvers should be clean and working properly. Heavy loads of dirt caked on the louvers or fan blades can ser- iously reduce the fan output. Fan drive belts should be re- placed if damaged. They should also be tightened properly to' avoid slippage. Air inlets to the building should be adjusted to allow pas- sage of the greater volumes of air needed. Some operators partially block air inlets from the outside to reduce the amount of snow entering during the winter. These should be removed for spring and summer ventilation. When outside temperatures fluctuate, particularly in late spring and early summer, full fan capacity is not required. The fans should cut in and out as required. This is accomplished by staggering the temperature setting on thermostats so that fan operation is sequenced. When the thermostats engage simultan- eously, the building will over- ventilate during cold nights. A properly designed fan vent- ilation system for a high density livestock building requires that building doors be closed. If they -are open, more air may enter the building. The distribution of air is extremely uneven. Some parts will be overventilated with drafts. Other areas will be under- ventilated. leaving stagnant areas where temperatures and gases can build up to dangerously high levels. No standard ventilation sys- tem can be expected to lower the temperature in the barn below the temperature of the 'outside air, said Mr. Sojak. Generally a rise of 3 to 5 degrees F above the outside air can be expected. Business Directory CRAWFORD and MILL J. H. CRAWFORD, Q.C. A. R. M. MILL, B.A., LLB. ROSS E.
