When cattle arrive at your

A calf bam that utilizes the

been developed by Wenger.
This

permanent front panels.
These panels or louvers are
set in a position to use to
advantage the sun’s
characteristic change of
position in the sky from
season to season.
When the summer sun is
naturally high overhead, the
louvers exclude all the direct
sun rays from the building.
This is accomplished by
facing the open side of the
building toward the South
and slanting the front side at
an inward angle. In winter
the sun remains lower in the
sky and the rays come from
a lower angle. The same
louvers allow the sun to shine
directly into even the back
pens, with a corresponding
wanning and more healthful
environment for the growing
animals. The Fall and Spring
seasons respectively have an
increasing and decreasing
amount of direct sunlight
flowing into the building as
the sun changes its seasonal
position.
The flared angles on the
louvers project outward to
shield the front row of calves
from the rain and snow. And
the new calf barn is portable
so it can be moved with a
small tractor to a new
location on the farm away
from any past disease
problems.
The building structure is
closed on three sides to
prevent drafts. Slanted
louvers on the South front
side allow for an odor free
house for the animals. The
basic building material is
steel (including the skid base
assembly). The fabricated
roof carries a 20 year
guarantee. The sides are of
exterior heavy plywood and
galvanized pen dividers are
easily removed for cleaning
and animal entry.
Three sizes are made: a
16’ x 8’ for 16 calves; 24’ x 8’
for 24 calves and 32’ x 8’ for
32 calves. A layout for both
individual stalls and loose
housing is also available.
The company offers a
rental program. More in

Mobile Irrigation Hose
Described in New Literature
Furlong irrigation hose,
specifically designed for
mobile agricultural
sprinklers, is described in a
new product leaflet from
Goodall Rubber Company,
Trenton, New Jersey.
Capable of handling up to
9,300 pounds of end pull, the
Furlong hose operates at 150
psi, tested to 300 psi, and is
specially compounded for
exposure to chemicals,
extreme weather, and
constant abrasion.
Engineered construction
permits the hose diameter to
expand under pressure,
t’ ~sby delivering more
gallons per minute than
other 4 and 4% inch water
lines An exclusive “wedge
tight” coupling eliminates
the need to cut f he hose, or
match threads f ur proper
connection.
Also presented.is Goodali’s
new Minuteman Hose
Mender, which facilitates
field repairs of cut or torn
irrigation hose. Tune con
suming vulcanizing methods
and jury rigging with pipe
and clamps are no longer
necessary.
