Hi Bob, our cows are milked in the stalls you see them in, in the picture. Cows are kept in during the winter, late fall and early spring. The cows do not like the cold/rainy or snowy weather any better than you and I . In this photo you can see my better half with the milkers we use. These are Boumatic auto take-off units, and they are two to a car. The car runs on a rail which is just like door track.You just push the car in between two cows, and milk one on the right and one on the left.We have three cars, so 6 milkers, and this will keep one person busy. One person can milk about 50 cows per hour. The milk goes from the pipeline to a receiver jar in the milk room then pumped through a filter and then into the bulk milk tank. The farms around me have every thing from double 10 parallel ,herring bone and carousel parlours, and even some robot barns, but still most farms milk in tie stall barns. I still like my old tie stall barn but, if I had to build a new barn , it would probably be a robot barn. Just because I wouldn't be the man milking the cows for too many more years and I think my son would prefer to go with the more modern idea, for better or worse. Bruce

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
