Building a straw shelter for farm animals

Instructions describe constructing a simple straw shelter in a field or barnyard. Use six gusts eight feet long forked at one end, set posts two feet deep in three-post rows, place crosspieces from two twenty-foot poles, lay aspen poles six to eight inches apart, and angle poles around the frame to create a top and open end for a draft-free shelter to keep straw secure.
