Fig. 935 is our original Name Plate with Holders. 

 It is simply a sheet of galvanized steel, 4x1 3 inches, 

 standard size, and a pair of clamps having upwardly 

 extended ends to hold the plate between them. The 

 size of the plate may be varied to suit requirements. 

 Even as large as 24 inches square may be used to 

 make a score card to keep a record of the cow's work, 

 or for other purposes. In place of the sheet steel a 

 heavy cardboard may be used. 



This is the simplest name plate and holder ever 

 devised and it is actually the best for all purposes. 

 It is also the most durable. Cows with long horns 

 cannot punch holes in the steel plate. The cow's 

 name and any other information may be painted or 

 stenciled on the plate, or it may be coated for use 

 as a black-board. The cut shows the Holders 

 clamped on the top-rail of a stall and the lower edge 

 of the plate cut out to fit over the stanchion holder 

 which shows in the cut. 



Fig. H81 is our New Name Plate Holder, also, 

 mounted on the top-rail of a stall. It is provided 

 with two sheets of isinglass, each 4'3xl2j2 inches, 

 between which the name plate or card is inserted. 



Fig. 1182 shows the holder detached with the 

 isinglass in, but the name plate left out. The holder 

 is clamped on the top-rail by collars shown in the 

 cuts. This is the most artistic Name Plate Holder 

 manufactured. 



The presence of name plaies on stalls adds to the 

 appearance and identifies the cows in a manner that 

 bespeaks the owner's consideration and high appre- 

 ciation of their value. There is no doubt that buy- 

 ers or patrons visiting your barn will be influenced 

 more or less by neat and attractive name plates. 



Holders are made for either I ? g or I J^ top-rail. 



Be sure to specify size.

Louden Salt Roll and Holder 



The most convenient and economical, and altogether the best way 

 of salting cattle and horses. The salt is formed by heavy pressure 

 into cylindrical rolls about 5 inches in diameter and 4} 2 inches long 

 with convex ends and a hole through the center. The Roll is easily 

 mounted on our Holders and will revolve when the animal licks it. 



The Roll is extremely hard to chip or break and disintegrates very 

 slowly, and is therefore the most economical way that stock can be 

 salted. There is no danger of the animal getting toomuchsaltat a time. 

 Neither is there any danger of the salting being neglected. .Special 

 circular on application. 



Fig. 1056 shows salt roll mounted on holder for vertical stall pipe. 

 We also furnish holders for either vertical or horizontal wood stall 

 timbers, to be attached with bolts or screws. (See page 210.) 



Mr. R. B. Young, proprietor of The Chicago Stock Farms, Buffalo 

 Center, Iowa, after using our Holders several months, writes: "The 

 Salt Roll Holders are very satisfactory and please me in every way."
