ilk m Dairy Barn

Construction: Select a well- dya ed location. The floor of the iiiiiliiiiiz barn should preferably be of cmicrcte. Watertight wood may also be used. The walls and ceil- ings should be smooth, the joints tight. Avoid dust-collecting ledges mu rafters. Gutters should be pmnei-iv constructed for good '.If.'l" e. Provide clean bedding .lllf'il the cows are kept in the burn.

Ventilation: Provide an abund- iiim-, of fresh air to remove feed ind other odors and to keel! the ham dry. Avoid direct drafts of izr through the barn.

Lighting: Allow four square feet of window space for each cow. It is easier to clean a well-lighted than a poorly-lighted barn. Keep the windows clean. Provide ade- qumo artificial light.

Saviltatinnt Remove the manure ai.rl used bedding a distance of a: least, 50 feet. from the barn. Sprrnri it often on the fields Clean the barn twice daily. Sweep the floor and sprinkle it with sup- crphosphate or lime. Cement floors should be washed clean daily when fariliiics are available. Remove iiiwatcii feed from the mangers. KFPD out dogs, hogs. chickens. wnsli the fnilkstool. Paint or '.lhilPWh5h the interior of the milk- in: barn as needed.

Milk House Location: The location of the

prevailing winds will carry barn- yard dust away from it during the dry season.

Construction: Select a well- dralned sue for the milk house. The floor should be watertight. Use concrete and provide good draina e. Other desirable features are ti ht, smooth walls and cell- ing; self-closing screen doors op- ening oubward; racks for cans, pails, strainers and brushes: facili- ties for washing and drying hands. The building should be vermin- proof. Avoid ledges and exposed rafters. Keep interior well paint- ed. Control flies.

Ventilation: A good air circula- tion prevents odors, and helps to dry the cleaned utensils, and pre- vents rust. Screened openings in wall, near floor, are satisfactory for fresh air intake. Be sure the screens have no holes that will admit insects and rodents. A cell- ing ventilator should be installed A high arched ceiling is preferable to a low flat ceiling.

Lighting: The rooms should be well lighted. The window space should be equal to at least 10 per- cent of the floor space. Provide sufficient artificial light.

Equipment: Equip the milk house adequately for proper clean- ing, sterilizing. and storing of utensils. The wash sink should be of the two compartment type when steam or hot water steriliza- tion is practiced, and of the three compartment type when the clean- ed utensils after having been rinsed are to be chemically steril- ized. Provide adequate facilities for cooling and storing milk.

water: The water supply must be pure. If in doubt regarding the purity of the water, arrange to have it examined bacteriologically. Information regarding the con- struction of wells, that will meet sanitary requirements, can be ob- tained lfroni the sanitary engin- coring division, Departinciit of Health and Welfare.

Surroundings

Yards: Grade the surroundings to facilitate drainage. Remove. all trash. Remove droppings to the manure shed, or spread on the acids at least every three days, to prevent the hatching of flies.

Drainage: By means of a slop- ing, concrete or tile drain, waste can be conducted some distance from the premises.

Chicken Coops, Toilet. Hog Pens: Locate chicken coops, outdoor toilet, and hog pens a distance of 100 or more feet from the barn mid milk house. Select a well- drained location. They should, preferably. be on the leeward side from the barn and milk house, so that the prevailing winds do not convey odors to the interior of the buildings. The toilet should be constructed in accordance with sanitary regulations and should be flyproof. Provincial Department of Health can give information re- garding the proper construction of

WHERE IS YOUR WEAKNESB?

"If it weren't for y9u," laughed A young friend of ours, "I'd believe I'm just plain dumbs-the time I'm having with my geometry. But now. I try my best, relax, and l9tl?a'r'ne it on my 'Space', isn't

Space, it is, my deer, or spatial relations. or spacial perception. or spacial visualization-and glad we are, that we can help you feel that doing poorly in geometry or physics, or mechanical drawing, or some phases of geography, is no slur on your general intelligence. The trouble probably' lies, to a considerable extent, in not having enough of this special visualiza- tion. one of te seven primary mental abilities we briefly men- tioned last week. I

The ability to judge the shapes and sizes of objects, to handle them mentally, to visualize, or perceive them in our "mind's eye", and to estimate the eaect of put- ting them together, or turning them around in space. is Space ability

. . .

In its simple form, it is the knack of putting together Jig-saw puzzles. If you can select the one piece that fits the space, out of dozens lying around, without try- lng other pieces first, the chances are that you are high in space. There are. tests of this ability that are considered reliable. One is the Minnesota Paper Form Board. Series of drawing of irregular cut- outs are presented. There are five in each group, and the individual tested is required to make is square out of the mist drawing in each group or row by adding to it one of the other four drawings in the row. The operationl is per- formed mentally a a mark is placed on the dra ing in each row, that will make a complete square of the first figure. There is a rigid time limit.

. . .

Where such tests have been given, the score is found to be an important factor in the success or failure in some school subjects. Also the presence of high space ability is considered essential in such occupations and professions as: Engineers, architects, pattern makers, designers. artists, electric- lans, machinists, draftsmen. car- penters, and pilots. It seems too, to have slgnincsnce in dentistry.

- v

But although the abuses of space may be a real hindrance to suc- cess. other traits and aptitudcl. contribute of course, to success or failure in almost any trade or pro- fession. O O O

This space ability is sometimes known as "space perception", but another primary ability involves perception (observing with atten- tion) of a different kind. This primary ability is called "percep- tion" and more often, "perceptual speed”. It is the ability to recog- nize likenesses and differences be- tween objects, words and numbers, quickly and accurately.

It is important to know about perceptual speed, when dealing with children just learning to read. They are often scolded and even called "stupid" when they make mistakes because they con- fuse the b and d, the m and n, the p and q. These letters may look the same to the child who is low in this ability. The power later on, to gather meaning from a page, and to find some special detail out of a mass of material, may also depend to some degree on this trait of perception or per- ceptual need. So far. there is lit- tie evidence that this ability is a matter of intelligence.

Perceptual speed is so important in clerical work that it is known as "clerical aptitude". Bookkeep- ing, typing, nllng and other re- cord-keeping jobs, make necessary continual checking or copying of words and numbers, and call for perceptual speed and accuracy. There is a simple test. to measure clerical aptitudc, known as the Minnesota Clerical Test. It has been carefully studied and is con- sidered reliable.

. . . This Minnesota clerical test con- sists of two parts: The Numbers Test and the Names Test. Thee Numbers Test is made up of a ser- ies of pairs of numbers, in some of which the members are identical and in some dliIerent. Thus the person tested is presented with the numbers: 7639-7693; 6291-6291 and must mark the pairs in wliicii the two members are the same. The Names Test works on the same principle. There are pairs of words like Smith and Co. and Smyth and Co. The task is sim- ple, but speed and accuracy are required.

Much research work has been done with this test. both with stu- dents and people employed in clerical work, and those seeking such work. There seems to be considerable evidence that the Minnesota Clerical Test has value for separating those who have ability for clerical work. from those who lack it. and that the higher the score made by the in- dividual, other things belng equal
