Yon Can Cut Barn Work in Half 
In the bams that are James 
equipped, the increasing cost 
and scarcity of labor is much 
less a problem; for James Equip¬ 
ment makes barn work easy'. 
James Equipment not only cuts 
labor in two, but makes it possible 
for children to do work that with¬ 
out James labor-saving devices 
would require a man's strength; 
chore time becomes almost play 
time for boys who work in the barn. 
Cleaning The Barn 
The easy running James Carriers 
turn the disagreeable, dirty task of 
cleaning out the barn into a near¬ 
pleasure. They make a boy’s job 
of what used to be shirked by atl— 
and are an investment that pay 
profits of 25 % or more a year in 
labor saved. 
James Scrapers make quick work 
of cleaning cement floors; the James 
Stanchions, with the James Align¬ 
ment Device, keep the stalls and 
cows clean, by aligning the cows at 
the rear, so that manure falls in 
the gutter and not on the platform. 
Feeding The Cows 
The easy way of feeding the 
cows i* the James way—the James 
Feed Truck or Feed Carrier, and 
James Feed Mangers. Rolling eas¬ 
ily along the track or on the cement 
floor, the James Carrier or Truck 
make unnecessary the lifting of 
heavy baskets filled with feed. With 
their big, roomy tubs they save 
much walking to and from the feed 
rooms, and in a short time pay for 
themselves in labor saved. 
Watering The Cows 
What a job this u«ed to be in 
wintertime — keeping a fire going 
in the old time tank heater, or 
breaking the ice in the tank so that 
the cows could drink. 
And how they hated to drink— 
with the north wind howling, the 
snow or sleet driving, and the 
drinking water icy cold. 
No wonder the milk yield dropped in 
winter time—for feed that should have 
gone to make the milk was used to warm 
the cow, and the water needed to make 
milk was never drunk. 
James Drinking Cups have changed all 
that. A sanitary cup for each cow pro¬ 
vides fresh water day and night. It flows 
in automatically as fast as the cows drink. 
Water—the simplest means of increas¬ 
ing milk yields—is often disregarded by 
dairymen. Those who realize how greatly 
milk flow is increased by James Cups are 
reaping huge profits on their investment. 
Reports based on milk records of 28 
herds (739 cows) for instance, show an 
average increase per cow per day of 2.45 
lbs. This is 490 lbs. in 200 days, which at 
$3.50 per cwt. totals $17.15; with a saving 
of $2.50 per cow in labor and 55c in fuel. 
That's a profit of 400 % the first year. 
Other reports and other investigation* 
confirm these figures. Ask us for the proof. 
Then get James Cups busy right away 
making these big profits for YOU. 
“Airing” The Cows 
Pure air is just as necessary to life 
and production of milk 
as feed and water. 
And a cow needs 
TWICE the weight 
of AIR per day that 
she does of feed and 
water combined. 
Do your cows get 
enough pure, fresh air? 
Food, water and 
air. The feed costs 
money—lots of it. But 
vater and air are 
free — the only expense is getting them to 
the cow, and that amounts to very little. 
The James Ventilators help get the foul 
air out of the barn, help bring the fresh air 
in to the cows. Ask for full information 
regarding these wonderful ventilators and 
about the James Ventilating System. 
Other Work-Saving 
James Devices 
There are many other James devices 
that save labor, increase milk yields, help 
sanitation and improve cow health, such 
as Cow, Calf and Bull Pens, Feed Mang¬ 
ers, Calf Pail Holders, Sure-Stop Swing¬ 
ing Post, Swinging Cranes, “Safety* 
First” Bull Staff, Handy Milk Stools, etc. 
Also equipment for the hog barn, horse 
barn and beef barn: 
The James Way Sunny Hog Barn pro¬ 
vides sunshine and sun warmth on the 
floor of every pen two-thirds of the sun¬ 
lit hours. The James Hog Barn Book, 
sent on request, tells all about it. 
Easy Installation 
It explains the easy way of putting up 
carriers, setting up stalls and pens and 
attaching drinking cups. 
Skilled help is not required, because of 
the ingenious James Anchors and because 
the equipment is a ssembled at the factory.
