We cleaned up all the wheat left over in the barn this morning which was almost about 13 1/2 bags. Dad. hauled it down before dinner and I think it brought the total up to a little over 199 bushels, he didn't settle with Ivey this morning as they were so busy. This after noon I went down town to get some groceries. Art Quanbury paid me 21 dollars for the three ewe lambs. Frank went back to the gully and found a hole with three skunks in it but didn't get one - it got him properly - phew! He has gone down town to-nigjt. They are going to present Cecil Powell with a watch but I am reading "The Amateur gentleman" so can't go down. It has been cold again to-day but it has also been sunny.
