well. She only had one. This after noon Dad. went down to Cooper's and I cleaned out the bay in the east end of the sheep barn while Frank fixed a place where we could let the ewes with the oldest lambs into it. Alan Law came in with the cream slip but didn't bring the cans back. As soon as Dad. got back I went down town to get my hair cut but as I didn't get down till nearly six I didn't go up town but had tea at Aunty's and went up right after tea, then I went up to see Marj. Dad. came down after tea to put their carpet down for them down home as they have started house cleaning. I took three more chicks out of the little machine to-day and set it again, one of the chicks died. Pickford was over this morning he wants Dad to go down and look at a lame horse he has down there. Mr. Duncan was also in this after noon and wants him to go up there to see a lame horse. It has been a very nice day and the mud is drying up fast. Wednesday April 4th Dad drove Enah and the baby down town this morning and went from there up to Duncan's. He got back about one o'clock and Enah and Tid were down all day. Frank and I pruned apple trees this morning. Dad. got a letter from Douglas to-day saying they were going to ship the heifer to-day, so Frank went right down after dinner to see if she came on the morning freight.
