STARVATION IS THE RAREST OF DEATHS, STARVATION IS THE RAREST OF DEATHS, but the commonest of ailments, so states Mr B. C. Ashton, F.N.Z. Inst,, Chemist to the Department of Agriculture. The term "starvation" must not be limited to denote only a result caused by lack of ena kind oi food, but equally well be applied to the want of any essential kind of food. "The importance of giving salt-lick to all farm animals is universally recognised," says lir Ashton. The reason for this is that salt lupplies sodium and chlorine, both essential mineral foods. The chlorine is required by the animal to make hydrochloric acid, which Is the acid of the digestive juice. It is not possible to say what symptoms are peculiar to a deficiency of salt, but a supply of saltlick will be found to promote an increased thriftiness and condition in stock.
