  1. The Cow-House

    Share Share Post
    Our cow houses is a very nice house. It is built with concrete, and has an iron roof with a concrete floor.
    There is a manger for three cows in it, each of which is two foot wide, by nine inches high. There are chains attached to the manger to tie the cows. They are tied by the necks.
    The walls are white washed inside and dashed outside.
