How to Protect Your Barn from Fire
Originally published in the Fall 2002 issue of the Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine. Written by Larry T. Wyatt, agricultural safety engineer at Grinnell Mutual Group in Grinnell, Iowa. Jay Harmon, associate professor of agricultural engineering, Iowa State University, was an adviser on this article. While driving through the Iowa countryside, many times you see on barns what is left of an old "lightning rod system". Sometimes the lightning rod "points" are still there. "Why don’t people put lightning rod systems on barns (or buildings) anymore?" someone will ask. Barns were especially vulnerable since there were few rural fire departments in the 1800’s. This made lightning rod systems important. Many eastern insurance companies would not insure Iowa barns; once they caught fire, they were usually a total loss. This is why Iowa farmers formed their own "mutual" insurance companies in the late 1800’s. Every member was an "owner" of the company. The first mutuals didn’t collect money or premiums to help pay for losses. If a member suffered a loss, the other mutual members were instructed how many pigs, chickens, board feet of lumber, etc., to deliver to the member who suffered a loss. Big old barns were especially exposed to lightning because of their height. Lightning is basically a huge static electric spark that usually occurs between the cloud and ground. The air between the cloud and the ground acts as an insulator. Once the electric charge in the cloud has built up a large enough charge to overcome the insulating effects of the air, a lightning strike occurs between the cloud and ground or the cloud and object on the ground. Since lightning (or electricity) almost always chooses the path of least resistance, the least resistance is usually the shortest distance between the charge in the cloud and an object on the ground. This is why the tallest objects on the landscape are usually hit by lightning. Since the old "hay mow" type barns in Iowa were usually the tallest buildings on the farmstead, they had the highest probability of being hit by lightning.

Barn Swallows
Originally published in the Spring 2003 issue of the Iowa Barn Foundation Magazine. Written by James J. Dinsmore, retired professor Iowa State University, and noted ornithologist. It was 25 years ago, when a graduate student and I stopped at a farmstead near Hubbard, Iowa because I had heard that black-crowned night-herons, a rare nesting species in Iowa, were nesting in a farm grove. We saw only a single night-heron, but I did get a vivid glimpse of how closely barn swallows are tied to farms, in general, and to barns, in particular, in Iowa. The owner of the farm, an elderly gentleman, told us how much he loved the birds and that he put out bird houses to attract them to his farmstead. He spent much of his time standing in or near the doorway to his barn. The barn was old and somewhat of a "leaner," but what I remember most was that barn swallows were constantly entering and leaving the barn while the farmer stood there. It was clear that the barn swallows were welcome in his barn, as their flights took them within inches of his body as they whizzed through the doorway. The farmer seemed oblivious to the birds, but it was clear that he really enjoyed having them nearby. There must have been at least 8 or 10 swallows moving in or out of the barn, clearly engaged in picking out nesting sites within the barn. The union of humans and barn swallows was close that day.

Traditional barns and farm buildings in Calderdale: Developing for new uses
Introduction
Most people will be concerned with the conversion of barns but the principles set out here also apply to other farm buildings such as cart sheds, pigsties, mistals and stables. The shape, materials, function and location of farm buildings vary from region to region throughout the country. From them we can get information on local architectural styles and craftsmanship, regional and local economies, patterns of settlement and their changes through time. Their presence is far more than a visual amenity, important though this role is; they are also original evidence presenting us with historical information not otherwise available, which deserves to be retained. Traditionally constructed farm buildings are part of Calderdale's heritage. They contribute to the architectural and historic character of the District and to its landscape quality. More than 360 barns in Calderdale are listed by the Government and the Council has a duty to operate a sensitive approach to conversion.

Good Practices
Any application for conversion needs to be fully justified. First of all the building, or that part to be converted, should be shown to be redundant. Another factor is whether it is near or within a settlement or out in the fields where changes to a building can affect the wider landscapes. Farm buildings in Calderdale are typically solid, simple buildings, built from local stone, with stone slate roofs. In order to retain their architectural quality it is important that, if a new use has to be found, they still continue to look like farm buildings in order to retain links between their past and the future. Conversion of farm buildings is therefore most acceptable where the new use respects the original envelope and interior volume of the building. Often it is only by being prepared to accept less conventional accommodation layouts that farm buildings can be converted without changing their character. New schemes should also aim to meet practical requirements of drainage, heating and lighting in the most sympathetic way.

About the Program Barnologist News Program Links Contact Us ... McLean County Extension This document printed from the University of Illinois Extension McLean County at http://www.extension.uiuc.edu/mclean/ Barns were easily the most important structure on a farmstead, often surpassing the farmer's own residence in quality of construction and certainly in size. The barn provided shelter for livestock, storage for grain and hay, a place to keep tools and equipment and a site to perform various work activities. They sometimes doubled as centers for social activities such as barn dances and husking bees. Erecting the barn was a social event too, and "barn raisings" offered a welcome break from the isolation of everyday life. The earliest barns in Central Illinois were modest log buildings, but by the mid-1800s post-and-beam construction using massive timbers for the framing, held together with wooden pegs, was standard. These barns were built in a variety of styles (shown on the panels opposite) and often reflected the builder's regional or national origin. With the steady increase in mechanized farming in the 20th Century, barns became less and less essential to the farm's operation. Other, more specialized structures were developed to house machinery and store crops. Existing barns fell into disrepair and, being viewed no longer as an asset but a tax liability, many were torn down. For example, a listing done in 1955 cited 120-130 barns in Arrowsmith Township; a recent survey identified only 42 remaining.

DISCRETIONARY PRESERVATION EASEMENTS
A Property Tax Incentive Mechanism to
Help Save Historic New Hampshire Agricultural Buildings A new state law, RSA 79-D , creates a mechanism to encourage the preservation of historic New Hampshire barns and other agricultural buildings by authorizing municipalities to grant property tax relief to barn owners who (a) can demonstrate the public benefit of preserving their barns or other historic farm buildings, and (b) agree to maintain their structures throughout a minimum 10-year preservation easement. The Purpose The new law is based on the widespread recognition that many of the state's old barns and other farm outbuildings are important local scenic landmarks and help tell the story of New Hampshire's agricultural heritage. Yet many of these historic structures are being demolished or not repaired because of the adverse impact of property taxes. RSA 79-D encourages barn owners to maintain and repair their buildings by granting them specific tax relief and assuring them that assessments will not be increased as a result of new repair work. The Mechanism The program represents a uniquely New Hampshire approach; it is strictly voluntary on the part of the property owner and combines
