I went over and helped Billy cover strawberries this morning and Jack told me he wanted me to help do chores around the chicken pens this afternoon noon so I put in the after noon, watering chickens and cleaning off dropping boards and about four o'clock went down with old Jack and the democrat and got a couple of boxes of eel-parts..

I have been over at Jack's all day fiddling around watering, feeding and cleaning out chicken houses and doing any thing any body told me to. Snow drop presented us with a big black bull calf this morning and ewe no 15 had a pair of lambs. To-night I went down town and went down to the station with Marj. who went to get her tickets for Haliburton. She is going home for Easter to-morrow. It has been a fine day but freezing to-night.
