snowed quite hard and we got pretty wet. This after noon Marj. and I went down town and I got some costic potash for the calf's horns and some louse killer to put on Belle & Rachel as they are badly infested. To-night I went to band practice and Marj. went down with me and went to {Girls?} Auxillary. Mild. Tuesday February 8th It snowed enough yesterday to make the sleighs run so Frank and I hauled out manure all day and got about 8 or 9 loads out on the root ground. We cleaned out both box stalls & the calf pen and hauled five or six loads from the cow shed pile. Uncle Ward came over this morning for a visit and went home when I went at noon. Marj. came over after dinner and helped Tid. make valentines all the after noon. He has been quite sick with gripper or a very bad cold and doesn't go out of the house at all. Very soft Wednesday February 9th
