Often, When one considers both the cost of providing structural adequacy, .plus the provision of facilities that proVide the right environment, etc. as discussed before the cost of doing so will amount to 75% or more of the cost of a new structure - and the farmer . still has an old building! The situation applies in particular to the use of the upstairs space in a bank barn. When comparing this to the cost of a new structure, the following becomes evident: - floor costs will be similar (perhaps more for ,the 2-storey barn if more floor support is required)' - about the only savings for the walls will- be the present outside sheathing (if well-insulated, prop- erly clad walls are desired) - ceiling costs will be similar costs for ventilation; heating, wiring, plumbing, penning, etc. will be similar . - the onlyAnajor .savirig will be the cost of the roof and this forms. a pretty small percentage of the total cost of a new structure - there are limitations of building size,' location, future changes and/or expansion, problems with elevation differences, lack of flexib- ility in choice of manure handling sytems, etc. • All in all, in the long run, the use of an older building and in particular the use of the upstairs ,of • TO CATTLE OWNERS IN :wog TOWNSHIP You are. responsiblefor Warble Grub-Control.

Recently there has been a considerable increase in new and improved, facilities for hog produc- tion. Much of this interest seems to be directed toward remodelling of existing structures,. :and in particular the .development . of housing facilities in the upstairs of 2-storey bank barns. For some farmers this may *ell be the best approach to take. However, befote making this type of investment, there are a number of points that should be cnsidered. 7• Of major Pnportance is the cost picture, "How 'does the cost of remodelling compare with the cost of 'a new structure to do the same job? It is important here to compare facilities that provide the same benefits and conditions. For example; any hog, building must provide the right environment. This means good ventilation,, to control both moisture build-up Yin fall through to spring, and heat build-up in summer., In order to be --:able to, ventilate properly the building must be well insulated. , Remember it can take 50% or more extra feed to produce a pound of gain at 40 degrees than it does at 60 degrees. The, rate of gain will also be altered by as much as 50% if the air temperature is kept , at 040 • degrees or less. Likewise, newborn 'pigs respond the best at, tempera- tures of 85-90 degrees for the first week, with a gradual drop to 70-75 degrees F. by the third week. Nursing sows like a temperature in the 65 degree range. Lower temperatures cause, stress on baby. pigs, with increased disease sus- ceptibility, Good environment also means that the facilities be constructed such that the pen walls, floor, etc. can be easily and thoroughly cleaned. Another matter directly relating to cost is the structural adequacy of the 'present building. Has there
