price it is. He got 12 1/2 cts for them, but I don't know what they weighed. This after noon I cleaned out the colony house and did a little clearing up around it. I want to put the last batch of chicks in it. Wind in south much milder. Wednesday April 18th Frank has worked on the land all day. He cross disking all morning and part of the after noon and then harrowed. About five Dad. took the drill out with Belle & Joe and drilled in all that was worked up. He sowed my three bushels of O.A.C. 72 oats on this side of the field and only sowed about two bushels of the others as he sowed mine thinly He sowed clover seed with the oats. This morning he and I treated 8 bushels of oats with formalin for smut, we spread it on the barn floor and sprinkled the grain. We also gave the sick lamb another dose of oil and some more injections but it was no good. She died this after noon. We also put three of the hens with chicks in the colony house. Huby was over for a few minutes this after noon. Very sunny and warm all day with a light thunder shower to-night which ought to do the wheat a lot of good if it doesn't get cold after it. Bill {George?} went past to-night just as the storm was coming up and as he said he could see "a bit at all" I lent him the lantern.
