The man sands area hours involved in useless and un­ necessary motions in feeding and caring for these animals is stu­ pendous. Several weeks ago in our “Did You Know” item we quoted the following — “One of the main reasons we don't use more labor-saying devices on the farm is the human factor, which causes us to get in a rut and like it. It is sometimes easier to do a job the old way than of a new one.” STOP AND THINK! Are the hay chutes 'handiest place possible stable. Are they labor-saving? Or are they time- and labor-wasting? Perhaps they were constructed for a totally different set-up to what you now operate. With the advent of the baler and forage harvester the feeding of hay has changed somewhat to loose, long- hay. In our own personal set-up we use chooped hay exclusively and, while no efficiency expert, we have found it very much fast­ er to feed in gravity feed hoppers filled whenever necessary from the barn loft level. The same method is being used ,in many barns for bales. We portunity to see a barn where almost head were fed hay proximately five minutes. How lqng does it take you? Bedding is another problem in some barns. Sometimes we won­ der if the straw was more easily accessible would more of it be used. It is human use as much when Manure, that stuff, is, according cial ad run in this paper, worth anywhere from $6 to $9 a ton. More of us could make some very inexpensive changes in out’ barns to lighten this chore too. A very practical lessomin this was to be seen at Gib Dow’s barn lastswin- ter. The deep litter in the loaf­ ing pen built up to depth of over three feet. Some pessimists say this is not sanitary -— it is if enough straw is used. Gib’s cows were much cleaner than many cattle I saw the past winter tied in the stall. Besides if horns have been removed cattle do much bet­ ter in loose housing than they do in stalls especially when they re­ ceive no daily exercise regularly. We have fed cattle both ways and give us the cattle loose. Even In a force ventilated stable we observed that they still showed the effects of going outside every day if only for 15 minutes. (It's a cheap source of Vitamin A.) Running water? You haven’t got it? Impossible!!

We’re willing to bet you more pounds in 30 days than the interest and depreciation on a complete installation. Way back before the war we congratulated a man on the good appearance of his cattle. He laughed and said “Salt and water are cheap feed”. The old fashioned way of open troughs are o.k., but are inclined to get dirty and alb animals like a fresh drink just as you do, so we favor the small individual float basins so common in most barns today. True, some people work them­ selves to death doing things the} awkward way, but with price of labor as it is today it would seem good business to think up short­ cuts—you might be able to fire the man, haul able DID It rat. at least another $20 worth.—F.J.
