James Sanitary Fittings 



(PATENT APPLIED FOR) 



All fittings on James Steel Stalls are malleable, of the sanitary type, with 

 overlapping flanges, held together with cut thread bolts of ample size. 



The illustrations on page I 14 show how the edges of the two pieces of the 

 fittmg overlap in such a way that when drawn together by tightening the bolts, 

 no openings are left in which dust can collect. 



The openings at the ends of the horizontal square pipe, the ends of the 

 Sure Stop Posts and of the rod connecting the sure stops are also closed with 

 a malleable, sanitary ornament. 



The ordinary malleable casting has rough fins or gate marks (where the 

 casting is poured). These are ground smooth on all James fittings. 



James Stall Partitions 



A prominent veterinarian tells us: 



"Not a week passes but that I am called to treat a cow with a badly injured teat or udder, having been 

 stepped on when lying down, by the cow next to her." 



The Telling-Belle Vernon Dairy Company, Cleveland. Ohio, after speaking of the increase in milk yield and 

 saving in labor say: 



"Aside from this we have had no damaged udders smce the installation of your equipment which of itself is a 

 tremendous saving in the production of certified milk. Formerly, wc had to take out many cows, some permanently 

 and others for varying lengths of time, owing to injuries received by adjoining cows stepping on the udders." 



George Sterner, Lomira, Wisconsm, writes:_^"l have not had a teat stepped on like with the old stalls. The 

 James outfit over the old style is better in dozens of ways already mentioned in your book 'The James Way' 

 and to make mention would be needless repetition." 



Mr. Chas. F. Welter, Kaukauna. Wisconsin, states: "I wouldn't take double the price 1 paid for the James 

 stalls and stanchions if 1 couldn't get any more. The stalls are worth a good lot to save the cows' udders, as in 

 the old way I had two cows that each lost one teat by having been stepped on by another cow." 



You yourself have doubtless known many a valuable cow thus ruined. 



No careful dairyman will be without stall partitions. They are invaluable 

 protection for both cow and milker, if the partition be of the proper design. 



A partition that is too short or that is not of the right shape to afford pro- 

 tection to the cow is, of course, merely a brace for the stanchion frame and is 

 an encumbrance to the stall. 



With such a partition, the cow, when lying down, is exposed in a way that 

 a neighbor may tramp on her udder. This happens not only in stalls without 

 any partitions but in stalls where the partitions are short and incomplete. 



And, of course, if the partition does not protect the udder of the cow, it 

 will not protect the milker from the cow behind him. 



The James Triple Curve Stall Partition, on account of its length and 

 peculiar shape, makes such injuries impossible. It protects both the cow and 

 the milker, at the same time bracing the stanchion frame and doing away with 

 all ceiling posts and supports; keeps the cow from moving away from the
