'As in the case of the horse barn, the cow barn opposite is deceptive as to its size. The ground falls away, and the cows enter thier concrete-floored, modern stable at either side. Forty cows are now comfortably housed there. The part of the barn seen in the picture is devoted to the storing of hay and machinery. On the left is the big concrete silo. A small structure in line with the left corner of the barn is a shed in which milk cans are set out to air. The fence in the foreground separates the field from the road to wheeling. This picture was taken a few yards from the horse barn. The tenant house, already pictured, is about fifty yards to the left. The magnificent hills which form such a picturesque background do not show up in this picture.'
