Planning  a  Dairy  Building 
I  would  like  aid  in  building  a  dairy, 
we  will  say  for  25  milch  cows,  out  of 
about  40  head.  The  building  will  stand 
alone,  all  wood,  supposed  to  be  raised 
above  the  ground  two  to  three  feet,  open 
grass  ditch  drainage  to  pond  150  feet 
away.  Town  water  supply  to  be  used. 
Once  in  a  while  temperature  is  25  to  30 
degrees  below,  zero  iu  Winter,  must  have 
hot  water  of  course  for  cleansing  pur¬ 
poses:  would  like  to  have  it  rat-proof  if 
possible.  This  was  one  reason  for  having 
it  raised  above  ground,  may  be  with  steps 
on  a  hinge..  Ftility  comes  first  and 
economy  next  in  the  building  of  it.  The 
herd  is  all  Dutch  Belted.  We  store  our 
<>\vn  ice,  so  wc  can  have  a  large  ice-box. 
well  supplied  with  nbsorbenrs.  The  re¬ 
maining  six  feet  behind  the  cows  will  be 
appreciated  more  than  almost  anything 
else  on  the  place.  The  trolley  and  car¬ 
rier  just  in  the  rear  of  the  cows  will 
Convey  all  manure  directly  to  the  pit, 
which  should  be  50  feet,  from  the  stable, 
under  ground  and  out  of  sight.  One  of 
the  most  perfect  arrangements  of  this 
kind  is  to  be  found  at  C’astle  Hill  Farm, 
Wliitinsville,  Mass.  Whatever  the  plan 
may  be  for  this  manure  receptacle,  the 
floor  should  be  well  cemented  also  the 
sides  so  that  no  liquid  can  escape.  The 
back  side  of  the  pit  should  be  at  least
