Dad. got a good day in plowing to-day but didn't quite finish the oat stubble. I spent most of the morning tidying up the rubbish between the wood shed and the shop and cleaned the windows and swept down the cobwebs in the cow horse stable. This after noon I chopped down the rest of the cherry trees which were along the plum orchard fence and started to get a trench dug for my hedge Holly Bush came in to-night to get a loaf of bread. He brought Enah over a sack of flour the other day to have her bake a loaf or two of bread a week. Very windy and cold all day. It snowed a little and is freezing hard to-night.

This morning as it was pretty cold I got Dad. to help me move the colony house It took quite awhile to get it on the skids but once it was loaded it slid along in fine shape. We put it in the yard where we set out the raspberries. Dad. went right back and plowed when we got it over and has plowed all after noon. He finished the oat stubble and got started to plow in the weeds. I separated the chickens put the pullets in where the cockrels were as that is to be their winter quarters, put the cockrels in where the old hens were and put the old hens in the colony house. I then ran the wagon out of the shed and started to pick up some apples off the ground in the orchard for cider. I picked all the after noon but didn't get the wagon box full. It was milder to-night but was snowing quite hard about dark.
