James Barn Plan Service 



THE James Barn Planning Department is maintained for the benefit of 

 our customers and others interested in the building of good barns. 

 Whether you intend to build, remodel, or just make alterations or addi- 

 tions — either now or later on — the experience, special knowledge, advice and 

 counsel of this Department is at your service. 



The James barn planning service has saved hundreds of dollars each for 

 other dairymen; and if you will take advantage of the benefits which it offers 

 you, you also will save money in the building of your barn. 



This department is under the supervision of Mr. W. D. James, now known 

 as the leading authority in the United States on the designing of dairy barns. 

 Mr. James was born and raised on a dairy farm. A lifetime's practical 

 experience has made him thoroughly familiar with every phase of the dairy 

 business, from the cleaning of the barn to the handling of the profits. This, 

 with his experience as a dairy barn designer, and as an inventor and manu- 

 facturer of dairy barn equipment, makes his advice of the greatest practical 

 value. 



Associated with him in work for our customers is a competent architect 

 and engineer who has had unusual experience as consulting engineer in archi- 

 tectural work, giving special attention to ventilation, reinforced concrete, steel 

 work and structural design. 



Another architect with years of experience in the planning and building of 

 dairy barns, a number of competent draftsmen and several men in charge of 

 various divisions of the field force, complete the office staff of the Barn Plan 

 Service Department. 



In the field are some two score experts whose work takes them daily 

 into dairy barns in every part of the United States, consulting on barn prob- 

 lems, drawing preliminary plans and reporting to the office on new ideas and 

 unusual conditions. 



For years, Mr. James and his many assistants have made a careful study of 

 dairy barns — not only how they should be equipped — but how they should be 

 constructed, lighted, ventilated, drained — how they should be designed and 

 arranged to be most profitable to the owner. 



They have personally visited tens of thousands of dairymen, have inspected 

 their barns, and consulted with them regarding the features most essential to 

 practical dairy stables. And they have talked with a large number of other 

 practical dairymen on the same subject at dairy shows and fairs. 



Every year they furnish plans from which are built hundreds of splendid 

 dairy barns and are called upon to solve the barn problems of other thousands 

 of farmers through correspondence and personal consultation in our office and 

 on the farm. 



JAMES barn plans represent all the biggest and best ideas in all the best 

 barns built in every section of the counlrv.
