I tried In vain to find au architect or builder who could make working plans or to tako a contract to erect a round burn that would meet my needs. 8o I went to work and made plans of my own and hired workmen by tho day, and I uow have a round burn (built on a sloping hillside) of the following dimensions: Diameter, ninety-four feet; lielK'bt of celling over itnllft, ten feet on one sldo mid ulne feet on tho other side, giving one foot Ul U 1UUU IU IUU OIHMIU MV'l l !' dralnngo for gutters and mangers; thirty-four feet from second floor to tho third, with a bridge of cany grado from the hillside to tho third floor.

All feed enters tho building by way of the bridge to tho third floor and is dumped down Inio tho silo, haymow, gralu bin, etc. The foundation for the bom and alio walls Is made of concrete, and also the walk behind tho cows and also the gutters and mangers, both of which have autQclent grade to drain them dry after cleaning or watering. Then there is no part of the first floor that does not receive the sunshine during some part of the day. There Is no timber In the barn larger than a 2 by 0. except tho floor Joists of the third floor, which are 2 by 10, and there Is no post between the outer THIRD DISTRICT-Includes all the City of Astoria west of Ninth itreet to City Limits.

I am now taring for fifty bead of cows and heifers lu this barn at the present time and can care for a hun dred when completed. The silo wall Is double with six luch space between, which makes the outgo for the ventilat ing system. The cows ure placed in a circular row sill around the larn with beads facing the center, and the young stock are on a u inner circle facing out with a com mon feeding floor between. The shin gles were laid by a gauge ou the shin gle hatchet. The udvantuges 1 mid in a round barn are many. The uuiin ones, as I flud them, are. first, economy of labor In getting feed to the cows; second, 40 per cent more space for material re quired; third, a more equal division of light, and. fourth, a more uniform tem perature and purity of atmosphere, and last, but not least, a round burn Is tho only one that Is tornado proof. I would advise any one who con templates building n round barn to se cure the service of a good builder who has built a round barn before or one who Is familiar with higher mathe matics as applied to bulldlng.-A.

At tho Mississippi experiment sta tion careful tests have been modo to determine the value of alfalfa pasture without gralu for hogs. Figs ranging In age from three to twenty-four months have -been used, and the re sults of two years' work show that al falfa is little more than a maintenance ration for growing hogs without grain. Satisfactory gains have always been secured from alfalfa pastures by sup nlemcntlug the pasture with from jl to nor rent of the welcht of the hoes In corn or other grain. Cowpess without grain so far have given better results than any other croi) for hog pasture. In one test tho erop was grown on thin hill land, where ono acre of cowpeas produced 350 pounds of pork. In another test on rich valley land one acre of cow- peas produced 4S3 pounds of pork. The hogs wore put in the ueiu wnen me peas were about ripe. A WISCONSIN DAIRY BAKU. Barn of O. II.
