WESTERN FAIR GROUNDS London Free Stall • Housing Gains In Popularity Four years ago In England a system, free stall housing of dairy cattle was developed that is quickly gaining popularity around the globe. There are a number. of rea- sons for the widespread accept- ance of the new technique. Those using it claim they re- quire only 10-.50 per cent as much bedding as they did with loose housing or stanchion barn methods. Some of the other ad- vantages they mention are: cleaner cattle, less labor, no built-up manure pack to move in spring, less trouble from cows in heat, and gentler cows. Free stall housing also refer- red to as free choice stalls, loafing stalls, loose .stalls or cow cubicles, allows,each cow an individual stall tat she is free to use at her own will. As with' loose housing the space requirement is divided into five areas, feeding, holding, milking, special pen or hospital area and stall area which in loose housing is the bedded area. Because of these similari- ties it is fairly easy to change a loose housing system over to a free stall system. The stalls line each side of an eight to 10 -foot wide con - Crede service alley. They are made of pipe or wood construc- tior, and are laid out so tha manure falls into the alley The floor of the stalls can b oarse gravel or cinder fill cov red with sand, then a layer f chopped 'straw, saw dust, hips or other bedding mater - al 10 or so inches deep, bring - ng the- bottom .. of -the stall • up evel with thetop of the 8 -inch orb that lines both siles of he alley. • The siie of the stalls is criti- al, says Professor Jack Pos, ngineering Science Depart- ment, O.A.C., Guelph, they hould be/from 6' 6" to 7' 6" ong and 3@ to 4' wide, de - ending on the size of animals hat are to use them, Cows ave atendeney to turn around n stalls that are too wide, thus n'anure is dropped in the front f. the stall instead of oven tiie rear curb. Stalls that 'are too ong present a problem too, as inure falls at the rear of the tall just inside the curb. The biggest,adrantage of the ystem' is that with properly onstrueted stalls additional edding 'is only needed once r twice a month and. there is the need to change it more han once a year. Because manure will be in a quid state, provision must, be ade to remove it 'from the lley daily with a tractor and lade into a storage pit or a preader. Also, this form of inure may freeze for ' short eriods of time during winter. oth of these problems can be inimized through good plan-. ing and management. More detailed information on ee stall housing can be obtain-• d from 'the Agricultural En- eering Extension Depart- ent, Federated Colleges, uelph.. . r Seaforth Junior Farmers and Junior Institute were awarded the H.

A SMILE OR TWO After a rural wedding, the bride and bridegroom climbed' into his wagon and set out for their farm home, About a mile down the road the horse stum- bled. "That's one." shouted the bridegroom. They continued on, and the t horse stumbled again, "That's two," shouted the bridegroom. e As they neared the Arm home _ the horse stumbled again. "That's three!" shouted the bridegroom; and seising a gun from behind the seat, he put a bullet through the horse's brain. The bride sat aghast; then, in no uncertain terms, told her new husband what she thought of his action. He sat quietly until she subsided, 'then point- ed at. her and' shouted:: "That's one!" The couple lived happily for 55 years. e 0 c 1 c c E P li 0 1 s s c b 0 li t li m a b s m p B m n fr e gin m G DON'T TALK TO THE CHIEF The word "taboo" or "tabu" was introduced into the English language by Captain James Cook in the late 18th century after a visit to the Polynesian Islands. It denotes any person, object or act which is danger- ous and therefore forbidden. The Polynesian natives believed that their tribal chiefs possess- ed such great supernatural pow- er that commoners were endan- gered by any contact with the person or possessions -of a chief. The chief, therefore, was taboo, the' 'American notes, and on many islands a "talking chief" was required to substitute for the chief in dealing with • the -punts.
