Star General Purpose Barn No. 16

38 ft. wide, 140 ft. long and 42 ft. from grade to ridge. The feed room annex at the silo end is 38 ft. wide, 17 ft. long and 34 ft. high. The barn has stalls for 50 dairy cows, facing out, two calf pens, a bull pen, and a general purpose room, well planned, at the barn yard side of the barn. There is a tight partition between the horse and cow barn. The horse barn will accommodate eight horses, in single stalls. Hay is elevated from the driveway which is open to the roof. Bins are built above the Feed Mixing room, and grain is spouted to the 'BARN YARD, Page One Hundred Eighty-four ground floor. The hay capacity is 245 tons. The ground floor and foundation walls are of concrete. The ceiling height is 8 ft. 6 in. in the clear. This barn is a STAR plank frame, trussed roofed barn, of the type illustrated on page 148. The long roof lines are broken by dormer windows which scale in well with the main barn. In this modern farm barn waste motion, waste material, and waste labor have been eliminated. Things move in a straight line and in one direction—there are few corners to turn and no steps to retrace. The finishing touch to a barn like this would be to make it STAR Equipped throughout. This means not only STAR Stalls and Stanchions, but also STAR Steel Pens, STAR Water Bowls, STAR Litter and Feed Carriers, STAR Door Hangers, Hay Tools etc. A STAR Equipped Barn is a work-saving building. rr-°--'ma--rf 11.. 1 - I131 4.1 c l: ~ had 4 1 1,..,1.
