SHELTER FOR STOCK
WILL SAVE FEED

Louisiana is importing q great many
cattle from the drought-stricken Sec
tions of Texas. which. in addition to
those already in the State, will have
to be provided for during the winter
months in order to prevent loss. which
would be calamity at this particular
time.
The chief means Of prevention is, of
course, a suficiency of feed; but even
in the case Of shortage of pasture, or
other feed, much loss may be prevented
by providing some sort of shelter for
the animals during the cold, and
especially the cold, wet, season.
This is readily explained. The natu-
raj heat of the body comes from the
food which the animal consumes. In
cold weather. if no shelter is provided,
much Of this heat passes from the
surface of the body through radiation;
and if the heat furnished by the feed
is not sufficient, through shortage or
otherwise, to keep pace with that
which is lost through radiation, the
animal is forced to live upon its own
fat and tissues, and il gradually be-
comes emaclated and finally dies from
starvation.
Where shelter is provided, however,
1.-THE animal Il kept warner and rsore
somfoftssIs; It's BODY Eeas S more Or
ssss conserved; and IL does not require
so much feed to maintain the natural
heat Of the body.
| Shelter, therefore, saves feed, and in
many cases. also. the lives of Out-of.
door stock during the cold winter
season that, otherwise, would die from
starvation as the result of losing heat
from their bodies by radiation.
In some parts Of the State. these is
good natural shelter provided by cane-
brakes, etc, but in others there is little
more than a 3-wire-fence. which is
mighty poor protection from our winter
cold and rains.
1t is urgent that every head Of stock
be- save at this critical time. and it
would certainly be shame to lose
them by starvation. when they might
be saved by provision being made for
little comfort that would probably
save them.
The winter season is upon us. and
stock owners should seriously consider
this matter. Neglect to provide shell
ter of some kind during the winter is
almost equivalent to the owner fburn.
ing up his hay stacks.'' as the heat
provided by the feed is lost by passing
from the surface of the body in cold
weather. Unless this is attended to,
there is almost certain to be consid.
cradle less Of cattle from starvation.
