to withstand rough usage. 



The swiveled small wheels at either end and the large wheels in the 

 center make the Louden Truck easy to handle. It may be moved 

 about with little effort, even with a heavy load, and is so balanced 

 that it can be turned within its own length. The sloping ends of the 

 box make shoveling the feed out easy. 



The body of the truck is removable, see Fig. 1065, and four stakes are 

 supplied with each, making a very handy piece of equipment. 

 Fitted with the stakes, it is suitable for handling sacked grain, ground 

 feed, etc.

Figures 1276 and 1048 illustrate two inexpensive harness carriers. They operate on roller bearing 

 trolleys like those used in our Emancipator Litter Carrier. The frame and hooks are of tubular steel. 



It is desirable in every barn to have a harness room separated from the rest of the barn by solid parti- 

 tions. The Louden Harness Carrier offers a convenient means of carrying the harness from the horse 

 stalls to the harness room. The trolleys will operate on the same track as the litter carrier or feed carrier. 

 Usually a short switch from the main line of the litter carrier track into the harness room 

 is all the extra track needed in order to install the harness carrier 



These carriers will be found handy and convenient in livery barns and in other 

 stables where a number of horses are kept. In farm barns it has always been 

 the custom to hang the harness on pegs or holders immediately back of the horses. 

 The odors and ammonia fumes in stables are one of the greatest 

 enemies of iron and leather. They attack the iron, causing it tocor- 

 'rode badly and also cause the leather to rot. If the practice was 

 followed of carrying the harness into a separate room closed entirely 

 by means of tight partitions, from the stables where the horses stand, 

 it would stop one of the big leaks on a farm. There could be no easier 

 or handier way of carrying the harness from the room than on a 

 ^Louden Harness Carrier, and the expense of installing an outfit of 

 this kind is so little that it amounts to practically nothing, in com- 

 parison with the saving effected.
