That barn was then converted to have 22 stanchions for young stock, a large loose pen, 3 horse stalls, and 1 horse box stall. There was a large silo, a grain feed room, 2 corn cribs. Oats were stored in the barns across the highway, until the barn moved, then a metal oat bin was built between the corn cribs and the highway.
