A gathering of farmers around a stack opened for feeding out. This is an example of the typical steep-pitched stack, not particularly well covered, which depends largely on the steepness of the roof for the shedding of the rain. Such stacks are generally protected from rain by covers made from used fertiliser sacks. If well built, as the one shown in the illustration, very little of the material is spoiled. {C. R.
