It Isn't the Heat-
It's the Hide!
Big discussion after the Grange
meeting Friday night. Tik Ander-
son was arguing that hogs were
lots more affected by the hot
weather than cattle. Skeeter Mor-
gan declared that it wasn’t so—that
he never saw any hogs bothered by
the hot sun like his cows were.
I was glad when Rusty Robin-
son stepped in.
“Boys,” he says, “don’t get so
riled up. It all depends on what
color the livestock are. Hogs or
cattle, the ones with light-colored
coats absorb less heat from the
sun’s rays than animals with dark
coats. So you’re both right!”
From where I sit, so many use-
less arguments could be avoided
if a person would remember he
doesn’t have all the right on his
side. Reminds me of folks who in-
sist that coffee, for instance, is the
only drink, forgetting that other
people have a right to a glass of
beer now and then. If we wouldn’t
get so “het up” about our prej-
udices—we’d all be better off!
