always too little care taken to provide shelter

cattle are stabbed in low damp places md the
winter thaws leave them standing in mud or
water which renders them restless, thereby
reducing their flesh and consequently the

and such attention would prove not only .
saving in amour Of food consumed, but also
in increasing the value Of the stock.
