P LEASE look at the pictures in the lower right-hand corner 
of this advertisement. They tell you the story of the 
greatest plan in barn equipment we have ever developed. 
It is a plan that reduces the whole proposition of erection to 
absolute simplicity. It enables any man who is building or re¬ 
modeling his barn to begin at once on the work of equipping it. 
You Can Start Cementing Tomorrow 
This new method is applied to the same JAMES standards now 
found in thousands of the best barns throughout the country. 
Mr. James and his associates are recognized as the originators 
of sanitary barn equipment ideas. 
The barn principles— proved right —that we have been present¬ 
ing to builders of barns year after year, remain as they were. All 
the fundamental ideas that have brought success and profit to 
barn owners everywhere are preserved. 
We simply make James Sanitary Barn Equipment better than 
ever by providing a new and easy way of erecting—a way that 
makes it unnecessary for you to delay your cement work or any 
other building operation a single day. 
When ready to begin, all you need do is to get the required 
number of JAMES Anchors. 
You can get these immediately —by express if you want to begin 
cementing at once—from Ft. Atkinson or some nearby distribut¬ 
ing point. 
If your cement men are ready to go to work, have them come 
ahead. You will be ready for them, the JAMES way, because 
you need only the Anchors in order to begin work. 
Set these Anchors—which later are to hold the stall posts—in 
your cement curb and go right on finishing up the floor of the 
barn. By the time you are ready for it, your JAMES equipment 
will be on the ground. 
Please study the lower right-hand pictures for clear proof of 
why you can start work tomorrow. 
Superior Service and Superior Quality 
Besides easy and quick erection, you receive the benefit of all 
the skill, ingenuity and experience of recognized barn authorities. 
We are inventors, discoverers and pioneers in the work of mak¬ 
ing dairy barns efficient. We are thoroughly familiar with every 
phase of the dairy business, and know the needs of dairy farmers 
in the arrangement, designing, construction, equipping, ventilat¬ 
ing and lighting of their barns. 
No owner of a dairy barn—no barn builder—no architect—can 
afford to be without JAMES service. Our ideas have been 
proved right before being offered to the public, and in announc¬ 
ing this new, quick, easy way of installing JAMES Sanitary 
Barn Equipment we are putting the capsheaf on our record of 
accomplishment for barn owners everywhere. 
Results of Our Work as Originators 
Here are the main points upon which rest the claims of the 
JAMES Manufacturing Company as creators of better barn con¬ 
ditions, inventors of better methods in handling barn work, 
master builders of dairy barns. 
Alignment Device 
Stanchions are adjusted forward or backward, so that stall is 
lengthened or shortened to fit the cow. Long, medium and 
short cows are lined up at the rear—litter falls in gutter and not 
on standing platform. Cows are kept clean—less bedding is 
needed—your work is made easier—cows are kept healthier and 
give more milk. 
Double Chain Hanger 
Allows you to build a level curb six to eight inches high; 
prevents waste of feed. No complicated curb forms to cut out 
and build—no forms to be sent from factory. Stanchion hangs 
low—cow’s head, when she is lying down, may be within ten or 
twelve inches of the floor; bottom of stanchion never interferes 
with cow’s comfort. Double chain separates hanger from the 
hinge—throwing all the strain on side bars of stanchion. 
Sure Stop Swinging Post 
Insures cozv comfort —gives cows the same freedom of move¬ 
ment as though in the open yard. Allows cow the same room 
at the head as at the rear. 
When Sure Stop is in place and stanchion open, the cow when 
entering the stall must put her head in the open stanchion. 
When cow is locked in the stanchion. Sure Stop is swung back 
out of way; she can card herself freely on either flank and lie 
down naturally, with her nose on shoulder. 
All Swinging Sure Stop Posts, for an entire row of stalls are 
opened or closed at the same time from any stall in the row. 
Self-Cleaning' Mangers 
JAMES Mangers make possiblbMeeding each cow individually 
—prevent abortion and other injuries caused by cows straining 
to get feed thrown out of reach-vprevent feed waste—promote 
cleanliness and sanitation. 
Manger has no bottom, a trough in the concrete floor serving 
that purpose; mangers easily lifted and trough quickly cleaned 
—may be flushed out and used for watering. 
Manger-Lifting Springs 
Weight of manger regulated by heavy flat springs—hold 
manger down so cow cannot lift it with horns; hold it up when 
manger is raised. Springs cold-drawn, oil-tempered—tested for 
severe use—same quality as automobile springs—tension easily 
adjusted. 
Triple Curve Stall Partition 
Protects both cow and milker; prevents injuries caused by a 
cow stepping on the udder of a neighbor lying down; keeps 
each cow in her own stall all the time. 
Peculiar curve of partition permits cow to turn her head, and 
leave stall naturally instead of backing out over the gutter. 
The James Anchor 
Gives stanchion a firm fastening to concrete curb; is easily set 
and makes quick placing of stanchions possible. So designed that 
should a bolt break or threads strip, it may be quickly replaced. 
Anchor hot galvanized. 
James “No Dust” Sanitary Fitting 
Edges of the two parts of the fitting overlap so that when 
drawn together no openings are left to catch dust. 
Calf Stanchions, Mangers, Pens 
Save labor in caring for the calves; make feeding of milk easy; 
break calves of the sucking habit; provide calves with clean, dry, 
comfortable quarters with plenty of light and ventilation. 
Of panel construction, easily erected; with JAMES tubular 
pen anchors; wrench only tool required. 
Cow Pen and Tilting Feed Box 
A roomy, dry, clean maternity pen or box stall, of panel con¬ 
struction, easily erected with JAMES tubular pen anchors; inter¬ 
feres least with ventilation and light. 
JAMES Tilting Feed Box takes up but little room inside the 
pen. May be tilted out to put in the feed—tilted in while the 
cow is eating. May be dropped to alley floor for cleaning. 
Bull Pen 
The bull need be no longer tied by a ring in his nose, but can 
be turned loose to move about with freedom. Simplifies and 
makes safe the handling of the bull. When necessary to enter 
pen, bull can be fastened in the stanchion. Pen is of panel con¬ 
struction, easily erected with JAMES tubular pen anchors. 
I-Beam Carrier Track 
Patterned after railroad rails—very strong—can not sag or 
spread—quickly and easily bent to any curve without heat while 
it is being put up—saves cost of special curves. Easy to erect; 
can be hung high or low, wherever there is room for the tub 
to pass. 
This deep track stands long years of wear; rounded wheel 
surface reduces friction to minimum—makes carrier easy run¬ 
ning. 
Button-On Hangers 
To put up track, button of hanger is inserted in hole in the 
track, hanger is turned to position and fastened to joist or ceiling. 
Holds the I-Beam Track always firm. No bolts or nuts used in 
attaching hanger to track—nothing to rattle or work loose. 
Friction Brake—Non-Slipping Clutch 
Not necessary to pull the JAMES tub down; tub quickly lowers 
by its own weight—friction brake keeps speed of descent always 
under absolute control—saves time. A slight pull on the control 
lever slacks speed regardless of weight in tub, a stronger pull 
stops descent. 
Friction Brake and Clutch are both controlled by one lever; 
when lever is pulled down it acts as a brake—when released en¬ 
tirely as a clutch—holding tub firmly at that exact point. 
James Combination Carrier 
Has all the advantages cf I-Beam Track inside the barn and of 
Rod Track outside; stand at the barn door and give the carrier a 
shove—it runs out, dumps automatically and returns to the barn. 
James Individual Watering Buckets 
A bucket for each cow; prevents the spread of contagious dis¬ 
eases through the water supply. Each cow gets fresh, pure water 
direct from a protected tank. Float feed keeps clean water in 
every bucket. 
James Ventilator 
A wonderful suction ventilator, by means of which foul air is 
drawn out of the barn; ventilating efficiency of any system posi¬ 
tively increased from 30% to 65% by the use of this right prin¬ 
ciple. 
And now we have added the greatest feature of all to— 
It means quick action. If ready to equip your barn now, don't 
worry about delays. Just get JAMES Anchors and go ahead. 
Please refer again to pictures to the right of this—in lower right- 
hand corner. Here is the complete story of quick, east/ erection. 
No. 1—Cement worker placing JAMES Anchors in 
soft cement of the curb. Anchors—which are the only 
tilings you need in order to begin work at once—are 
shown on the ground behind. After anchors are in. the 
work of cementing the barn door proceeds without de¬ 
lay. Meanwhile your JAMES equipment is on its way 
to you. 
No. 2—Placing stall posts on bolts inserted in anchor 
plate. Tightening of holts then fastens post lirmly to 
the curb. 
No. 3—Attaching our new square horizontal pipe to 
upright posts. Note that all fittings are in their proper 
places on equipment when you receive it. Loosening 
and tightening of bolts all that is necessary in erection. 
No searching for the proper parts—no lost parts—every¬ 
thing simplified so that a boy can understand it all. 
No. 4—-Attaching stall partition—one end being bolt¬ 
ed to upright, the other imbedded in the barn floor. 
No. 5—Attaching stanchion alignment device to fit¬ 
tings—which are already in their right places on hori¬ 
zontal pipe when you receive shipment. Lower end of 
stanchion is held to the curb by special anchor shown 
in illustration at left. 
No. 6—Placing Sure Stop Swinging Post on flanges of 
upright fittings. These flanges have strong plus or but¬ 
tons on which the sure stop Is hung in a second—in¬ 
suring strength, easy action and quick removal when 
desi red. 
No. 7—Showing the connecting rod which moves all 
the sure stops at one time. Placing this rod in position, 
like all other parts of the job, is the easy work of one 
man. 
No. 8—Attaching the manger division to fitting al¬ 
ready in place on upright post. 
These pictures show the erection of the JAMES 140 
Stall. 
Stall 14A is erected in exactly the same way. except¬ 
ing that our 14A Stall has the complete manger, instead 
of the manger division. 
Other New Features 
Horizontal pipes are now square—or quadrangular— 
instead of round. This means that the fittings are so 
firmly held that they cannot twist on the pipes. 
Bull pens, cow pens and calf pens are just as easy to 
erect as the stalls: anchors are set in place when the 
concrete floor is being laid—the pens can be set up at 
any time later. The hard work of erecting the pens is 
done away with; the pens reach you all assembled in 
panels- you merely set ttie upright posts in place and 
bolt the panels to them. It is no longer necessary to 
set each upright pipe In the concrete floor. 
Another big improvement in our method of manufac¬ 
ture is that we are halting all paint on the equipment. 
All piping Is mechanically cleaned, removing scale, 
grease and foreign matter, thoroughly preparing the 
piping for painting. A primer is first applied and 
thoroughly baked. The enamel is then put on, and 
baked. That makes a lasting protection—one that will 
resist blows without flaking off. All JAMES piping is 
painted inside and outside, leaving no place for rust to 
attack. 
Assembled Stalls—Knocked Down for 
Easy Handling 
JAMES Equipment will reach you in five assembled 
groups—all nested and bundled. Fittings are in their 
proper places on the piping. No boxes filled with small 
parts -no long lists of little pieces—no complicated 
directions. 
You can't go wrong in erecting JAMES Equipment. 
One man can do all the work.
