The building of suitable tans and stables, ao teat they will bo effielent, moderate in cost, and at the same time sanitarY, is a problem Welch many builders do not coneider thor- oughly enettgit berore bundtng, Note often • we see bares and Outhouses built that do not by any means fulfill, as they should, the purpose for which they are required. Before build- ing or remodelling tee barns, the owner seated consider the matter well and lay his piens so that the building, when fintsited, will bo ade- quate to the needs, If this is not done the owner will be forced ta make an- other addition, and so many builainge around gezatly increase the cost eel maintenance and increa,ese the depre- ciation. Two thousand year 'ago Cato gave advice on tee subject of build- ing welch is just as true te-day as it was then. He said: "In his youth, the farmer ought to diligently plant els land, but he sh5uld ponder before he builds." It is better to term for a while, and get to know lust what is add ti the mouton of the rdiV, hitt are often woefully neglected, either theough ignorance or cirelessness. One 'of the reasene telly etebles are rather small is the, cove of buildings. While we do not advocate traneces- eery large quarters, yet it is bard to get good reenits It the animals Pee crowded, We must remember that the stack in Canada has to be stabled halt the year,, and if the conditions are unsuiteble and unsanitary, they will soon detract from the telefuluess of the hera. It is safe' to say teat the great percentage ot stock leasesfrom disease are due to pour stable con- ditions, which allow the dieeaeo donne te multiply and rpreaa from one animal to the other. At leaet fifty square feet ef space shoula be allowed for each animal hound, and as for air space., from live hundred and fifty to six eundred cubic feet aro neceseary, and to accomplish this with economy of Con epace, the ceilings should be about nine feet high, In order to keep* the air fresh, an he well te previle about twenty-avo pi: vent. extra..

The objeot of this article is to deal more parfecuIarly with the points which bear on the saultation of the building, but many of these are inteie locked with others such as efficiency, cost aed location, and general layout. So often the location of the barn is only eonsidered from the statidpoint of nearness to theltouse, arid as a re- sult, after it is built the owner finer; that he gets very poor drainage trout the barnyard. There are many yards that 'are lower than the surrounding areas; the water Iles in 'them, and as ,a result the stock tramp the Boil into mud, and become fouled, Thie is es- pecially obtectionable with dairy cat- tle. It is, therefore, wen, whenever passible, to have a slope away from the buildings, A stone drainage sys- tem or tilting will help, and the drains should be extended under tee barns also. We are assuming that the stables are under the barn where the bay and grains are stored, as this has proved to be the style beat suited to meet the needs of tlfe' average formate al - raver of a separate building which can be made to give better light, ven- tilation and more freedom from dust. The majority of barns welch have the teed above and the cattle below have only one ply Of planking, and, as a' result, notice chaff and chit is continually sitting through, and spid- ers coining In from the green fields find the ceilinge a veritable paradise' for spinning webs. If the ceilings were finished off, as fit tee picture, it would prevent the dirt from corn- ing through, and be much easier to keep clean. However, the ordinary ceillete weth otter things suitable, win give very good satisfaction,- if kept* clean. The arrangement of the stables in- fluences the sanitation also, as some methods allow the light to penetrate more freely than others, and they also make the chere of cleaning the stables eaeler. Many Prefer having the rows et stalls so that. the cattle Will face the light as in the picture, and by this method the gutters are oppoeite each other in the centre, and the manure does nee dirty up the outside walls, as it doe; when the cows face the centre of the Stable. With this gutter in the centre the at- tendee -it can clean Mit the stables more easily, and When.4 litter carrier is ueed, the cost of tracking is less, as noe,so lunch is required, Moreover, when the cows face the liget they receive the tull benefit *of •Suffielent. floor SPoCe) as Well aa ample,air saace, are codditions which wee edquate system of ventilation should,' he installed. This is one of the points -together with an insufficiency of light -that the majerity of stablee are weak in, and yet these twe are per- haps, of greater importance In ensur- ing the health of the he:d than any ether two factors that.we ean name. There have been many clifferant sys- tems tried out, hut the King and th Rutherford Systems have been Most used, and of these the Itutherfora is given sthe preference in most cases, though some use a combinetion of the two, The two differ In the manner in which the fresh air is brought in and the stale air disposed of, and are worited out on the theory ot to ac- tion of tbeeair as it becomes tweet up .by the cattle, Tile King System la based on the theory that carbon .ttioxide, Which IS present in breath exhaled from the lungs, being much heavier than air, will sink to thefloe: .of the statile. Cansequently, the outlet for the stale an' Should be near the floor, and the, intaek neer the ceiling. The outlet fine runs up the side or the barn to titi peak, at the cupola.

We do not have sucht long' pipes, and it can be fitted into a barn that Is being re- modelled more easily than the former. In this system the foul air is taken away at the ceiling, because it is claimed that 'it will be wermer than the fresh air, and consequently will rise to the ceiling: as warm air is lighter than cold, The frosh air en- ters the building near the floor, en- tering the box on the outside, passing dowa under the wall and up into We buliding,-thus getting an upwere mo- tion, which spread e it through the buildings. Itt order to ensure this Up- ward =tem, the inlet opening on the inside of the building is surrounded for six or twelve inches, and this also prevents dirt and chaff getting into the entrance, The eutlet flue paha up through the centre of the barn to the peak, or, if a hay fork is used, it Can be put in far enough to one side te allo-w the fork to worle An accurate estimate has been made of the necessary size of the itt. lets a.mi outlets in this system, The minlinum requirements are • eight square inchos of Inlet space, and fif- teen square inches al outlet Space far each animal housed, In order to , ensure sufficient space of inlet and nutlet for all kinds of weathor, it will as these ,ahould not be less than 15 to dispose of the stale air.
